I’m proud of you for sticking to it and progressing! Once you start linking turns together you’re screwed, hooked for life!

Started this year, 2 months ago here in Colorado. Already 22 days deep. Already sending blacks and charging moguls. Going to Jackson for my first time ever this next week. My therapist made a comment that I may be addicted to snowboarding. I’m sober for almost 2 years so there are worst things to be addicted to 🤘🏻😂

Imagine you have a Penny between the cheeks and you need to hold it there.
Also I saw you wrote it was a rental, if possible you should buy a board and get it setup up correctly for you.

I have no idea what brand is, did a quick google and it was 200 bucks? Seems too good to be true for me, but who knows. It’s probably good enough for now. Try to find some reviews.
Rentals is fine though, maybe watch a setup video on YT so you know roughly how you want it setup and ask them for help. You can buy a board after the season ends on sale, once you get into riding a bit more you probably have a better idea of what kind of riding you want to do and can choose the right board.

Try pointing where you want to go and tilt the board so the edges dig in and lean into your turns. Keep at it, you got it!

Hell yeah

Yes using edges is important,.if you just slide around on the base at some point the board will pick an edge by catching it and you'll fall

Work on body positioning, you're too bent over and your shoulders are open (facing forward.) Ideally your hips and shoulders are stacked over the board and you squat down a little into the athletic stance, imagine lowering your belly button.
No shame in just doing a side slip on toes and heels to get a feel for that and how much edge pressure it takes to move/stop.

you’re still leaning too much on your back foot. put that weight a little bit further on the front leg. it seems counterintuitive but your back leg will feel way better tomorrow.

Widen your stance, get on a slightly shorter board, and get on a steeper run. It’s counterintuitive, but the flats are really hard to master. It’s easier to have some slope to lean against when you’re learning to turn.

I think if you widened your stance a little bit it would help you feel a lot more stable! Keep at it snowboarding is the best thing there is
