Snowboarding is a winter sport, practiced on a downward slope covered of snow.
The position the rider adopt on it is called “regular” or goofy”.
Regular is when the snowboarder puts his left foot at the front of the board and Goofy is the opposite stance.

Boards can be of different size and shape, it all depends on the skill and size of the rider and on the type of riding he or she wants to execute.

Then comes the freestyle, a discipline that borrows many elements from skateboarding practice, as riders use features like rails, “halfpipes” or jumps to execute aerial tricks.


If you\'re a hard worker, then you can get involved in many types of competitions:
The Big Air competition features a jump from which competitors propel themselves, reaching the air and executing aerial tricks while making sure they will land safely on their board.
