ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Snowboarding

Snowboarding is a fun winter sport where you slide down a mountain covered in snow on a board that is attached to your feet. It's a lot like surfing, but on snow instead of water.

When you go snowboarding, you wear special boots that are attached to your board and a special outfit to keep you warm and dry. Then you take a ski lift up to the top of the mountain where you start your adventure.

When you want to go down the mountain, you lean forward on your board and keep your weight centered over it. You use your feet to steer left and right, and you can slow down or stop by pressing down on the back of the board with your back foot.

If you want to do cool tricks like jumping off a ramp or spinning in the air, you practice and learn how to jump and turn your board in different ways.

It's important to stay safe when snowboarding by always wearing a helmet and following the rules of the mountain. And remember, even if you fall down, it's all part of the fun and you can always get back up and try again!
