Hey Kimmy, something I tell newbs to snowboarding who look less comfortable on their toeside edge compared to their heelside - the further you get over on your toes, the less distance you have to fall.

That’s comforting Chuck!

Good stuff Oz.

The only pole you should be handling at the shred is your monopod! shaka

I’m not sure whether that one’s sarcasm or not - because when you try and keep it in the back of your mind when learning, it really helps.

Not sarcasm as such!!

But truly - telling someone they have less distance to fall is not encouraging!

. . . telling someone they have less distance to fall is not encouraging!

Perhaps another way to look at it - would you rather fall from the top rung of a ladder, or the bottom?

well that depends…

Am I falling from the ladder on my butt or on my face?

Neither, hopefully.
