Synopsis:
Introduces snowboarding, offers advice on board selection, and demonstrates basic and advanced techniques
Reviews: Snowboarding is a combination of surfing, skateboarding, and skiing. It has been around since the 1960s and, like many other participatory (as opposed to spectator) sports, has gained greatly in popularity during the 1980s and 1990s. Technical refinements have transformed the sport from an alternative to skiing to a full-fledged pursuit in its own right, complete with a unique lexicon and recognized strategies and procedures. Bennett and Downey present everything the prospective snowboarder needs to know to get started. Nicely illustrated and diagrammed and including a glossary and tips on the terrain and conditions necessary for the optimal snowboarding experience, this is definitely a book for the sports-minded. Mike Tribby
