<\/a><\/p>\nIt\u2019s been said that you should\u00a0never snowboard with your significant other<\/a>. But what if through some miracle of chemistry or internet dating, you\u2019ve found \u201cthe one.\u201d The only problem? He\/she doesn\u2019t snowboard. Trust us, this will lead to nothing but heartbreak and Christmas-powder-day guilt if you just let them remain a non-shredding member of society. But who the hell really wants to teach someone to snowboard? No matter how much you love them. Never fret formerly-single person: we\u2019re here to help.<\/p>\n 1. Get them a lesson<\/strong><\/p>\n Seriously, let someone else spend that miserable first day of falling with your partner. Maybe the \u201cpros\u201d will even be able to prevent them from breaking any bones, a sure fire way to lose them from the start. If they refuse, leave them alone for the first two days.<\/p>\n 2. Slow Down<\/strong><\/p>\n Once they\u2019ve mastered their J-turns and garlands, it\u2019s time to take them out and show them what real snowboarding is all about, right? Not so fast there, Charlie. Unless they\u2019re a snowboard wunderkind you\u2019ll probably have to spend the next few times snowboard waiting for them and giving them pointers. It\u2019s ok, it will all be worth it someday.<\/p>\n 3. Tell your friends to fuck off.<\/strong><\/p>\n They\u2019re not just useless to you on a powder day, your friends will also not be helpful while trying to get someone hooked on snowboarding. But! I love my friends, you might say. Newsflash: your significant other probably doesn\u2019t love them as much as you, and their zany antics will only serve to be annoying while he\/she is trying to learn. Once your partner is at a moderate-intermediate level, you can then let snowboarding be the proof that you buddies aren\u2019t all drunken buffoons (warning, it may not work.)<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
