How to Snowboard (Have Fun) and Not Die

By: Kyle Ashton

Narrated by: Kyle Ashton

Snowboarding is pretty fun, especially when you don't die. Whether it's avalanches, hypothermia, runaway snowboards, falling ice, tree-wells, or even goats...snowboarders have a lot to worry about! In this guide, you'll find everything you need to conquer the sport, gain firsthand experience from the experts, and learn how to avoid some of the (literal) pitfalls that you'll find.

Whether you are going to compete in the X-Games someday or you just want to have some fun in the snow, there's something in this book for everyone. Alpine climates are tricky if you aren't used to them, so there's a lot to teach when it comes to the snow. My goal was to create a guide that anyone could learn from, even if you've never even seen the snow.

Everyone should be able to experience the joy that comes with snowboarding, so this guide was written to be universally accessible. At the end of the day, I want to teach you how to snowboard (have fun) and not die.

Whoa! That's the title!

Great intro to snowboarding

I was looking for an audiobook for my family to listen to while driving to the mountain. I’m a “safety first, enneagram 6 mom”. My tween kids’ dad is not - he is a learn as you go type guy. The “lean as you go” method has not worked so well. This audio book is engaging, concise, and helpful. Loved it!
