How do you turn while Snowboarding?

Question

(using heal and toe turns and also carving)

Answer 1

one of the reasons snowboarding is so difficult is you use many different body parts that you aren't used to using. that's why practicing, getting out there at least once a week is the best way to learn. i also suggest going with friends who snowboard, so you can try to copy their technique. if you incorporate the following body parts in the following ways, you should see serious progress. and, most important of all, don't give up and have fun with it!
heels / ankles / toes: especially when carving, it is important to push down on your toes or raise them up and balance on your heels
knees: bend them! the closer you are to the ground, the less distance you have to go when you fall. also, bending your knees increases your recovery chances if you slip up and allows you more flexibility, for lack of a better word.
hips: probably the most important part. by twisting your torso or swinging your arms around you, you create the vital pivot recquired when carving. if you don't have an immediate turning action, you're going to keep heading straight down the hill and pick up speed before you have a chance to learn.
brain: not physically, but it's REALLY important to not try any stupid things when starting out, and i highly suggest wearing a helmet. even if it looks dorky, you will feel more safe and tend to progress faster because you won't be so cautious. also, look around you and try to avoid crowds because it is always much harder for a snowboarder to control themselves.
good luck! i've been snowboarding for several years, and if you stick with it long enough you can get to a point where you can stop worrying about technique and just enjoy it.
