snowboarding with no snow
during the winter it snows a couple of times but its not very good for snowboarding. ive made pretty decent ramps in my back yard and got a little bit of air and i can do a indy grab and rotate 180. im also good at carving down the hill. i think i might be able to get really good at snowboarding but how do i do that with no snow?
also i skateboard and longboard if that helps with snowboarding at all.
im going snowboarding in colorodo this winter.
You really can't snowboard without snow, but the skateboard will give you the basics for doing the flying tricks. One thing you can do is get a really old snowboard and find a big flight of stairs outside or in and go down them with your board. It sounds stupid and nuts, but it gives you the basic for going downhill cuz the board is long enough to slide over the steps without getting hung up. Also, I'm not sure the state you live in but there are a lot of places to go that make snow. They are big resorts that when it's cold enough make snow....usually from Nov.-March and they have hills and trick parks. Good Luck!
How To Make A Snow Skate
Snow Slang
When I was 10 years old my brother and I started skateboarding. Now, at the age of 32, my current board is gathering dust in my bedroom, but it's still there. Just. And as a result of those intervening years, my mate laughs, sorry, mocks, when I say the words 'sick', 'dope', or 'sweet'. But I can't help it, and then I feel like a wannabe. So it was with arched eyebrows that I read through the 'Snowboarding Dictionary: Snowboard Definitions, Language, Terms and Slang' which I had just stumbled across within the abc-of-snowboarding.com website.
I'm wary of these kinds of lists. Language has always been an essential part of a cultural group's identity - part of its purpose is to keep outsiders, well, out. So to provide people with a direct insight into a group they might not understand is full of shortcomings. How can it be possible to understand the language, when you don't understand the culture that uses that language? The most natural result, unsurprisingly, is mockery. The other main problem, as I see it, is that you are in danger of pigeon-holing a section of society. And in this instance it's snowboarders. When one of the phrases suggested is a 'Ganjola Ride', meaning 'a ride on the gondola, while smoking...' well, you get the idea. What needs to be stressed is that since skiing fought back against its fuddy-duddy image, the new school is just as guilty of using silly language as the snowboarders. The dividing line here isn't the sport; it's the mindset of those involved.
Having said that though the list is hilarious! I mean, does anyone seriously say 'Ganjola Ride?' I really want to be in a gondola queue this upcoming season and overhear some dope baggy-panted snowboarder turn to his mates and suggest it, because I would probably wet my own oversized trousers. Some of the phrases in the list are regular words or phrases in common usage, some make sense when thought about, and some are simply comedy. Here's a selection from abc-of-snowboarding.com that you may or may not hear on the mountain this winter:
Arctic (sic) Cougar - An old lady who goes for really young guys on the slopes and in the lodge
Botwoker - A new snowboarder who can't stay upright
Dope - With style, cool. As in 'that trick's dope, dude'
Ghetto - Urban, cool. Most brands' snowboard pants sport 'ghetto slits' at the bottom to ensure that they hang in a baggier fashion
Gnarly - Dual meaning - awesome, radical; difficult
Jibbing - Riding on something other than snow i.e. rails, trees, concrete posts. For example,
you could partake in an 'urban jib session'
Ol' Pops - Old people on the hill, generally wearing 70s neon one piece suit
Rolling down the windows - When someone is off balance in the
air and they rotate their arms wildly to try to recover
Shred - To ride aggressively, 'to shralp'. Common usage - 'It's shred time, dude!'
Sick - Amazing. 'That cliff drop was sick, man!'
Stack - To fall over badly, to crash
Steez - Style
Stoked - Alternate word for psyched. To be excited
Yard Sale - A bad crash in which you lose your hat, goggles, glasses etc
Of course, many of these phrases can be added together for extra effect. A popular one for old school riders is to 'shred the gnar'. This phrase in particular is actually making a bit of a resurgence these days on some snowboard instructor courses. Hopefully this post has explained some of the more obscure phrases you might hear on the slopes. But whatever you do… emulate these at your own risk! You might pull just pull it off… but you could also look like a total tool.
Author's note: This piece was written last before last season. Whilst out this last winter, I have to admit I did hear two young English snowboarders deciding whether or not to "take the ganjola." I hope they enjoyed the ride…
