> going from sitting to standing on the board with your feet strapped in is HARD I was going to teach my girlfriend snowboarding. So we go up a hill with an easy lift. Once out we strapped the board, while sitting in the snow. I got up to get started. She did not get how to do that... and for me it was so natural that i could not understand the problem... To sum up we survived a very severe crisis in our young relationship and she ended up taking lessons from a real teacher ;-)
