Well, I dunno about the learning from him thing...his stance is too narrow, and he has a TON of toe overhang - he's not going to be able to angulate at all. Plus, look at him practicing his heelside in the living room - he's sitting on the toilet something awful.
He's got alot to learn.

Justin, he will fit right in with the "park and pipe rail apes" with his present setup :biggthump

He has the "Sit in the landing zone and pull an OMG IM ABOUT TO GET FLATENED!" face of suprise worked out already too !

hehehe.

That's what I'm afraid of!

We've decided that if he wants to do freestyle, he's going to do it well. No sitting in the park all day for him. My fiancee and I both subscribe to the "if you're going to do something, do it well" philosophy.

Hey, if he's sitting on the toilet already, I'd say he's well ahead of his peers!:biggthump

LMFAO.

He's 5 1/2 months old - this "snowboard" is from a kids shop here in the states called "Build A Bear". They sell Teddy Bears that you can then outfit with various clothing and equipment and whatnot. A few years ago, I got my mother a snowboarding bear for her birthday (she collects teddy bears), and this afternoon my father got the idea to put the snowboard on my son :lol:. A good time was had by all, and after a hard day on the slopes, he is FINALLY zonked - he's been teething and hasn't slept in almost 2 days :sleep::sleep::sleep:.

I would like to see him on the slopes this winter, but I don't know if my other half will allow it. I'm thinking that he's ready to start sliding on a leash shortly after he can stand on his own.
