This is by far the best howto book on snowboarding that I've seen. I took up snowboarding in 1997. I took classes in Austria, from an instructor that turned out not to be a good instructor (I think he really was a skier). I did have fun, and a black tail bone, but after 7 days of snowboarding I still wasn't doing ok at all. The summer after, I read "the illustrated guide". The book pointed out to me tha basic things about snowboarding, like "put your weight on your front foot", "always go on an edge, never go flat", "don't bend over, but rather bend your knees". Basic stuff the instructor failed to tell me about. The year after we went to Switzerland twice, and I got good at snowboarding. I decided to take my next classes when I stopped getting new ideas from the guide, but so far I haven't taken classes.
Brilliant book!
