Answers:
What kind of snowboard is good for beginners?
camal spin make sure when you go into it you bend your leg then straighten it once you start going around make sure u keep ur chin up keep ur backleg straight and up and on the axel bend ur jumping foot and when you jump off the blade make sure you dont jump flat footed and if ur jumping off ur left (which u should be) unless ur opposite make sure your right foot comes all the way through before you really tighten up to rotate around keep yourleg tight and crossed switch your feet fast in the air and make sure you pull your arms in all the way or you'll never make the jumpI need to find a place that rents snow ski eqipment in San Dieog County?
For the camel, when you form the position, make sure that you are standing up on your toes (like in a releve position in ballet). Keep your free leg directly behind you, with your toes pointed. Keep your head and chest up. Look slightly in the direction of rotation. Keep both knees locked up.And, most of all, have fun!

Just relax and dont be afraid to fall because its gonna happen... Did you use the harness yet for the axel? That will help you with your rotation and landing. On your take off dont bend over for momentum stand up straight... The rest is lil ajustment you and your coach can make... good luck when you get these things you'll love to keep doing them
