Today was for Jake!

Across the globe, we saw everyone paying tribute to the one who brought us all here, created the sport we love, and will forever inspire us to have as much fun as possible.

We ride to remember, and ride because snowboarding is what brings us together. Thanks, Jake. 🖕

This girl! ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
She’s been amazing us with her love for snowboarding. We are a snowboarding family, so we knew we wanted to teach her young. And she picked it up right away!⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
After posting B’s snowboard reel yesterday (thanks for all the love on that!), many of you asked about the gear we are using. I’m going to list it here! (Keep in mind, you can rent a lot of this stuff!)⁣⁣⁣
1. Snowboard. We got B the burton Kids’ After School Special Snowboard Package. It includes super soft, easy to use bindings! Check the size charts to see which snowboard size your child needs.⁣⁣⁣
2. Snowboard boots. She’s using the burton Toddler Mini Grom boots. They have velcro straps so the boots go on and come off easily. (Watching her learn to walk in snowboard boots was too cute).⁣⁣⁣
3. Riglet Reel from burton. This is KEY! It attaches to her board and is what we used to pull her around. Once she got comfortable being pulled, it also works great to slow her down as she learns how to go down the hill.⁣⁣
4. Helmet and goggles. A properly fitting helmet is very important. Goggles are also essential for eye protection. B is wearing the anonoptics Rime 3 Kids’ Helmet and the Tracker 2.0 Goggles.⁣⁣⁣
5. Outerwear. Dress your child in layers so they can stay comfortable for longer! A moisture-wicking and breathable base layer, a warm mid layer if it’s cold outside, and a waterproof and insulated outer layer. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Check out my stories today to see how we started B on her snowboard! I hope this helps anyone who wants to teach their little one! It’s never too early (or late!) to learn. ⁣⁣
⁣
I grew up snowboarding but never learned how to ski. Are you a snowboarder or a skier? How old were you when you started? ⁣
