I'm finding I'm swaying in my seat side to side watching you is what you call an immersive video! 😂

[ZZubZZero]

The first minute of this video, those shots of you just riding and carving so smoothly, that's just pure heaven. I could watch it for hours. I'd love to have a video of just that, for as long as possible

[PavelJisl]

Hi Malcom, thank you very much for all your videos here. I started to think about my riding this year and tried to change my bad habits after 20 years of intuitive riding. All content here is really good explained. Thank you so much!

Step 4 is the game changer. When newer boarders get that it changes everything.

Great content by the way - I've been hoovering up your content since before last season which was my first time boarding for about 10 years. I'm 100% convinced your content was a huge part of why my FIRST run down was 10x better than I expected it to be.

Obviously back at it again this year. I boarded all over Europe and N.America for about 20 years in a row from my 20s onwards before my big break - I wonder if I can do the same run now I'm in my 50s! We will see.

I finally get the carved turns thanks for your tutorial videos, Malcolm. Very appreciate your works from a midlife crisis man 👍

I wish it had 20 steps just so I could watch more. You put them all together and it looks so effortless. Here’s a topic: for all the things that you’ve been explaining so well in your videos, can you demonstrate the common mistakes? Like “don’t do this”. I think that would help a lot (just don’t break anything). Thanks!

I've got to say, Malcolm.. your videos are spot-on. I've skiid (skied, skii'd, skiyed?!?!) for 25 years, and have picked up snowboarding in the last 5 or so. A lot of the info here is essentially the same as a few other channels, but somehow you make it fresh and explain it very slightly differently for it to make so much more sense. Chapters are great. Well done on a marvellous channel - picking up pace ;-) Cheers from London

Step 4!! As a new snowboarder who has figured out quite a bit of what to do-- but it's tough to bring it together, step 4 truly is the secret. Thanks so much for all these videos! I can see why you're so successful teaching. You really know how to describe everything perfectly and easy to understand. I can't wait to hit the mountain after watching your videos.

Hi Malcom, great video as always. Loving these! Could you perhaps do a video on how to carve on steeper terrain. Or maybe just a video on how to do real steep slopes properly without skidding. I find that the steeper the terrain or the tighter the traverse the more I tend to revert to skidding even though I can carve

[Zarkrez]

I recently started snowboarding last month, so far I worked out the basics but with your channel and tips it feels like I can go a bit higher after I can practice some more. Great content, fun to watch aswell.

After watching countless tutorials on snowboarding, this is by far the BEST one!

Well broken down components of the carve, and well defined to-do steps to get to the end goal.

I didnt even know i was doing it all wrong till i watched this tutorial, thanks for teaching!

[rakish]

This video changed my game. I always struggled to switch between heel edge to toe edge without stopping, I watched this little video and there I was carving …

[dycevice]

Superb video. On a subject I was hoping for. With great structure and editing. Please more of this with further advancement on carving. Your videos just get better . Brilliant.

[catewilton]

Thanks soo much for this…I’m
60 this year and still haven’t mastered carving, so it’s an important goal for me. I scuff my turns.. it’s fear I think. Moved from skiing and started boarding at 40 and can be a bit too cautious, especially as I get older. Need to relax and let go a bit. Where is this? Such amazing wide pistes.

[therealmax]

Watching malcom snowboard is so satisfying, it looks so effortless and easy!! Thank you for all your videos! Yiu are a big part of why I can actually snowboard without lessons.

[Hulethepenguin]

Hi Malcolm! Can you please make a video on snowboarding profiles (camber vs rocker), how to best choose a snowboard, especially for beginner - intermediate level, for smooth learning and less edge-catching. Keep it up, thanks!

[thomasgebhard]

MM is definitely the best snowboard teacher on YT! THX for sharing your knowledge, mate! 🙌

[silverzayan]

i learned in 5 days thanks to your videos and i've never touched a snowboard before

[Yaas]

Those mountain views never get old!
Also have to say, awesome selection of music tracks in all your videos!

[dooft]

Best instructional vid I’ve seen. Short and concise with great points. Especially that one about changing edge before the fall line, I was wondering about that
