9 Terrain Park Tips

terrain park tips

To a beginner, the terrain park can seem like an intimidating place. There are lots of good riders there, practicing their big tricks on huge jumps and rails.

Almost every park that I have been to has ratings on each of its features. They vary on each mountain, but they will generally go from an S (small feature), M (medium feature), L (large feature) and XL (extra large feature).

Snowboarding gear from The art of flight

The Art of Flight

After watching Art of Flight DVD for the millionth time, I thought it would be a good idea to have a list of the the gear everyone was using. I will keep adding and updating this list as I find out more of the brands and styles. If you know any of the gear I missed leave a comment and I will add it.

I have added a new page listing the snowboarding gear from The Fourth Phase.
