Before you take the chairlift to the top of your mountain you should work on some of the basics on the beginner slopes first. Most mountains offer a specified learners area or “Bunny Hill” where you can work on your skills without worrying about getting stuck on a pitch that’s too steep or running into more advanced riders that are riding faster than you.

Start near the bottom of the run, where you won’t have to worry about losing control and building up more speed than you can handle. Strap in to your board in a seated position facing down hill, stand up and point your front hand down the fall line. This will turn your board down the hill and you will start moving, let yourself come to a stop as you ride into the flats. Do this several times until you feel comfortable. Try putting yourself back onto your heel edge and come to a stop before you get to the flats. Once you have this mastered try to stop on your toes. See how long you can traverse across the run on both edges before you come to a stop.
