2. Don't Overdo
it With Layers
Many first time snowboarders make
the mistake of wearing too many
layers. While it may be chilly on the
mountain, you'll likely get warm as
you get up and down off the ground.
Avoid wearing cotton, as it often
absorbs sweat, causing it to freeze in
some cases.
3. Rent Gear
It is fine to rent gear for your
absolute first time on the slopes. If
you are going to continue with the
hobby, then you should start looking
into purchasing your own. One of
the most important pieces to buy at
first are boots as they set the tone
for your entire snowboarding
experience.
4. If you board is not attached
to you in some way, you are
likely going to lose it, should
it ever stray from your self.
That is a lot of money you
probably won't get back.
