The wisdom of taking a lesson applies equally to snowboarders as it does to skiers. Tuition speeds learning and eases the pain. But it can also be hard to convince teenagers of that.
Snowboarding, the Fundamentals and Beyond, is a simple how-to book by one of Australia's top snowboard instructors and the technical director of Australia Professional Snowboard Instructors.
It tells you how to choose the right equipment, the techniques of boarding, including hints to help you learn faster, safety advice for the backcountry, and a generous section on the best places to go snowboarding.
