Answer 1

S - Start Small M - Make a Plan A - Always Look R - Respect get respect T - Take it Easy

Answer 2

1) Riding Concepts 2) Teaching Concepts 3) Service Concepts = Learning Pathway

Answer 3

Creates friction with snow, snow melts, board "slides" on water if too cold, water isn't created and board sticks

Answer 4

- around 20 feet - a shorter turn radius

Answer 5

energy that come from the board 'unbending' (e.g., de-camber0

Answer 6

Wide boards are slower to turn, but provide more float

Answer 7

- extend through the control phase of the turn and flex/have "soft" legs at the finish and initiation (to quickly get to the new edge) - actively flex the ankles (first) and knees (second) towards the CM when moving edge to edge - move diagonally in a flexed position across the board - don't forget to steer! Teaching Ideas: - dolphin turns - front-leg pulls - back-leg kicks (rebound) - blend together (pull and kick) - retract frontside of a mogul, extend down the side and back of the mogul...repeat

Answer 8

Front or Nose of board going over the feature

Answer 9

Back or tail of the board going over the feature

Answer 10

backhand & toe-slide guy was riding for Independent trucks

Answer 11

front-hand & toe-side Weddle was deaf

Answer 12

Front-hand & Heel-side

Answer 13

back-hand & heel-side Tony Hawk got canned fish after a competition and called it stalefish...the name stuck

Answer 14

- can pop off of both feet (for beginners) - can ollie and use the tail to flick/snap off the lip of the jump (usually better riders use) try sliding the board forward (quickly) and snapping off the lip of the jump need to have great control over the tail of your board to do this

Answer 15

- drop down as low as you can by flexing ankles - lean against a wall/squat and bring up toes - pick-up toes in boots - do while snowboarding - use the rocker board - ride your snowboard, like a skateboard

Answer 16

- build pressure on the tail, then release and dive into the next turn (retraction/dolphin) - pop off jumps/rollers through the tail - all 180's off the tail When the riders starts to get performance from the board

Answer 17

both leave towards the rear of the board change in intensity Pop - less intensity in pulling up the front knee, combo of decambering the middle of the board and loading the tail Ollie - primarily loading the tail

Answer 18

Pulling lower body towards center of mass; 2 ways • Edge spikes – increasing tilt at the finish of the turn, to help initiate next turn with retraction • Rebound – build energy in the tail of the board, then use rebound to help snap board back towards center of mass

Answer 19

- leave on toes, and land on toes (play with the edges) • Shoulders need to lead the hips -super fundamental! • Creates leading tension in the mid-spine • Power comes from legs …mainly (some hips and core tension) - leave from the tail

Answer 20

• Think - Load and release • Start low; tip shoulder forward (leave tipped forward the whole time), slide board forward, load tail, extend rear leg, and then release tail energy • Try to take any twist out of the body and board

Answer 21

1. Pre-wind – with really bent keys 2. Rotate shoulders - keep them level! - start looking over shoulder (this is separation and need to hold for a split second, otherwise will scub take off) 3. Pop – extend legs (leave from back leg aka ollie) 4. Then allow hips to come through (this keeps the hips centered – KEY!!!) – do not rotate hips first – hips chasing shoulders (maintain countered position) 5. under rotate shoulders, then scissor the legs, finally, lock in the toes

Answer 22

• Jumping from toe to heel & back – Pop and Ollie • ollie over the rail – project out and across (then going over a lower point) • baby ollie’s with catch/angle to

Answer 23

• Need “trajectory” control – arch of the jump (helps rider be in control, vs. just speed jump) – done through longitudinal pressure (tip to tail) • Should teach “Tail-check” – balancing on the tail (shoulder down, straight legs) o Then try it over rollers and other places • POP – “extending of both legs” – yes, but really, most of the pop is coming from the tail of the board o Need to play with “popping” from nose, from middle, from rear of board • Ollies – every variation – off toes, land heels; off toes, land toes – long hold…delay the release of the tail • Terminal velocity – ollie, pop at full speed – tells you….they can move while moving at high speed

Answer 24

- need to create an intentional edge

Answer 25

Answer 28

1) - Welcome and Introduction 2) Assess Students 3) Determine goals and plan experiences 4) Create experiences for learning 5) Review and Preview Steps 2 to 4 loop throughout the day

Answer 29

- Develop relationships built on trust - Engage in meaningful, two-way communication - Identify, understand, and manage your emotions and actions - Recognize and influence the behaviors, motivations, and emotions of others remember: Trust, Communication - Me & You

Answer 30

Access/Plan - identify a theme, plan and adapt learning experiences with individualized, realistic learning outcomes in the advanced zone. Implement - individualize learning environments that maximize stuents' engagement in their learning process and guides them towards agreed upon outcomes. ??? - Foster students' abilities to recognize, reflect upon, and access experiences to develop new understanding and apply what they've learned.

Answer 31

- top down - board up - core down - look for turn symmetry - find out what's causing the lack of symmetry -

Answer 32

C - cognitive A - affective (social/emotional) P - physical

Answer 33

VAK -visual, auditory, kinesthetic WTFD - watcher, thinker, feeler, doer

Answer 34

- intrinsic or extrinsic

Answer 35

1) intro lesson and develops trust 2) assess students and motivations 3) determine goals and plans 4) presents and shares information 5) guides practice 6) checks for understanding 7) debriefs and invites

Answer 36

Command - take control, set boundaries, tell them exactly what to do Task - instructor provides focus or task, "ride to the sign doing skidded turns" - drills in a known skill

Answer 37

Reciprocal - pairs up students - provide a task - students give each other feedback Guided-Discovery - instructors leads students through a series of tasks to make an observation/learning - there is only one right answer Problem Solving - students work through a problem and come up with an answer - no single answer is correct

Answer 38

taking a single task - and doing it a number of different ways e.g., ollie....but off heels, middle of board, toes...slow, fast - different body positions this creates true ownership!

Answer 39

Leapers - jump from edge to edge Dolphin turns

Answer 40

Tail and nose turns (putting all weight on tail throughout the turn) High speed garlands

Answer 41

Freestyle carves - grabs (Indy, Melon) while carving Single joint test- Get super extended, then turn with just ankles, just knees, just hips...

Answer 42

Jacob's Ladder

Answer 43

Leapers - jump from edge to edge Change - rider behind yells "change"; student changes edges

Answer 44

Jump - rider behind yells "jump"'; student needs to jump from anywhere in the turn

Answer 45

Answer 48

Self Actualization Self-Esteem Belonging Safety and Security (physical and mental) Physiological needs (warm, fed, sleep, bathroom)

Answer 49

right answer - the one that best suits the situation and provides the coach and rider the best lens to see the movement

Answer 50

o Finish to initiate – managing pressure across the width o Initiation to finish – managing tilt through inclination and angulation

Answer 51

o Try using ankle-only twist to initiate turn (because need to be on top of board to do vs. larger body twist - from hips and shoulders) o Try rotating femur inside hips to steer (leaves the hips stationary) – especially important on toe to heel, don’t lead with hips! o Try moving hips over board (heel to toe) – aka extending hips o Think about the board being flat – downhill edge touching in the transition

Answer 52

o Pivot – rotate around a point (can be away from snowboard) o Steering – blend of edging, pressure, pivot to create a performance in the board

Answer 53

* Twist is a “micro” adjustment that’s always happening * Play with tiny twisting movements on a cat track * Can be hard to generate twist, if binding are too close together or too far apart

Answer 54

Finesse (harder to see) - Twist - pressure across the width Gross (easy to see, of course, can also be micro adjustments) - Tilt - Pivot - Magnitude - Pressure along the length

Answer 55

* Can be setup for some great moves – e.g., setting an edge for a spin, * Often done with single joint – vs. Tilt which requires angulation of multiple joints and inclination * Good boot and binding put your CoM in the middle of the board (so shouldn't need a lot of forward lean) * Lower level uses larger muscle groups/movement (e.g., hip break, bending knees)to try and control pressure – as rider get better, try to manage through ankles

Answer 56

o Make skidded turn with the lowest amount of tilt (uses largest surface area) – requires subtle ankle movements o Balancing on an edge when doing a trainer group-up (on the toe-side and heel-side (bring up under-neath you and create a shelf)) o Think about pressure on your feet – ball of foot, to line on the outside of foot, to heel o Throw the board and jump on it - need to quickly make subtle adjustments to find balance!

Answer 57

- Pressure along the length and pivot -

Answer 58

* This is huge, really opens up opportunities and allows the rider to play * Does not need too be the full length, can be just in the nose area, between the binding…etc. * Lots of TID implications (can be done slowly/progressively, can be done quickly/explosively – think about slowly from nose to tail throughout initiation, control, finish – then very quickly (retraction) tail to nose to engage new edge) – then try the other way! * When first discover, many folks overdo it, then dial back to just what’s needed

Answer 59

- moving pressure along the length changes the “grip point” also becomes the pivot point – contact point to contact point

Answer 60

o Rebound: Powerful rebound off the tail o Skimming: More fluid movement with more active/muscle-based retraction o High edging – passive

Answer 61

* Retraction turns – be careful about extending the back leg down the hill; instead – momentum should be taking you across the mountain * Retraction – at end of the turn, rear leg should short (if you can see your top-sheet, you’re probably extending the rear leg) – try seeing if I can do the retraction turns with as little rear leg extension as possible (i.e., don’t overdo the finish!) * Retraction image – running the board through a table saw

Answer 62

o Highspeed carvey garlands – feel movement along the length o Binding/boot grabs – front – both – rear o Nose-press/tail-press through turn – where do you feel most stable o Static – move along the length 1) very tall 2) very small 3) middle o Tail-press competition 1) longest 2) highest o Get the board moving underneath vs. moving the body:  traverse – start with shuffle along length, (no pivot – if it does, need to get more stacked)  then take it to a turn

Answer 63

o Retraction – moving board towards CoM o Most flexed, move body down to the board

Answer 64

* Steeps and bumps – need to get on edge early, high in the turn, allows you to manage pressure throughout turn, so doesn’t all build up at the end (then get chatter) * Retraction allows for more steering at the top of turn, creates smaller radius * Level 3/retraction turns – fast and most effective (but can get tiring!) – may need to do some most extended or down unweighted

Answer 65

* Super tall, or super short isn’t best….it’s about constant movement and dynamic balance over the edge - Flow baby!

Answer 66

o Add – getting heavier – usually through extension (eccentric) o Subtract – lessening the pressure – usually through flexion (concentric) o Maintain – combination of f/e (isometric)

Answer 67

Initiation - setups the turn - e.g., direction, shape, beginning to edge Control - speeds up, in the fall line! really need to control speed here and continue to shape Finish - forces are pulling you down the mountain, you have speed, need to forcefully direct board across the mountain if trying to make closed turns, take all the energy you built up in the fall line, and direct across the mountain

Answer 68

- give more room to extend - puts rider in a stable position (can f/e as needed, also passively absorb) - acts as a lever to create force for turns!!! (knee steering! meaning won't work if tall)

Answer 69

progressive flex/extension that helps to shape the turn

Answer 70

- Countered - a static position, with upper and lower body separated - Counter Rotation - the act of moving the upper and lower body against each other - pre-wind - prepatory move of separating the upper and lower body - Anticipatory - moving the upper body into the fall line, before the turn is initiated - rotation - upper and lower body moving in the same direction, but at different speeds

Answer 71

- ollie off nose (get it dialed) -

Answer 72

- even if doing straight air or a 50/50....should be slightly on toes

Answer 73

Power - pushing really hard into the board getting a lot of performance Flow - smooth, nuanced moves
