Product Description:
With its breakneck speed, upstart attitude and stunning locales, snowboarding is the definitive sport for those who thrive on adrenaline rushes and winter activities. No longer the exclusive province of renegade hot-doggers, huckers and shredders, snowboarding earned its own venue for the 1998 Nagano Olympics and was very popular at the Salt Lake City Olympics 2002. Today people of all ages are participating in this sport of athletic prowess and extreme spirit.
The number of snowboarders is exploding and will likely exceed downhill skiers. Whether you are a novice, an experienced snowboarder, Snowboarding Skills will help you improve your technique on the hills. Features include:
- Pointers from the top pros
- Action photo sequences with diagrams to explain technique
- Step-by-step lessons to improve your skill
- Safety and equipment tips
From the basics of standing up and stopping to the challenges of pivoting and jumping, Snowboarding Skills covers everything you need about the sport.

This was terrible. I just started snowboarding this year, and this book felt completely juvenile to me (and I'm not even that good). Seriously, if you've even stepped foot on a mountain or seen somebody else snowboarding, don't bother. This book doesn't teach a thing.

WELL WAS AN EXCELLENT, PRODUCT SATISFY MY EXPECTATIVE AND I RECOMMEND AMAZONS TO ANYBODY THAT EXPECT QUALITY EVEN ON SHIPPING OR SALES OFFERS.

This is one of the better books out there on how to snowboard. How I know is because I read pretty much all of them. I haven't found a great book yet, but this comes close. Contrast this with how-to-ski books and you would find a lot more fine books on skiing. Perhaps snowboarding is quite simple in concept but it is the "doing" that is hard or perhaps there still has not been a good author to write any of these books? Time will tell for the latter.

This is a fine book. It is easy to read, with good tips and very well organized. Pictures help to follow the text and depict concepts clearly.

Excellent pictures and graphic. Good explanation with tips and dos and don'ts.
However, I feel like it is not enough in depth. A little shallow. After reading it, tried on the snow (great fun and works) and I want more but the book didn't give me any.
I think Chapter 6 should be longer and explain more.
Overall it is a good book but just not enough depth in many areas.
