Shred: Learning Park


 I love snowboarding. The mountains are where I go to recharge. I'm lucky to call the Canadian Rockies home. Mountain time, is a little like "island" time. On the mountain everything has a different beat and pace. With spring in the air, now is the perfect time to play  in the park. Spring snow is great for learning new tricks, whether it be your first time hitting a rail or trying a switch back lip on a stair set . The spring snow is soft, and the weather is nearly tropical.

Learning to ride park is not nearly as scary or painful as it may seem. You want to start small and work your way up. I recently teamed with Sunshine Village to film a few beginner park tricks. This first just walks you trough a basic 50-50. 


Go, and enjoy the snow where ever you are. Mount Spokane and Lookout Pass both have super fun parks to push your riding. 

 RCR Resorts have fun progressive rail parks to help get you framiliar and comfortable with riding rails/boxes.
