Picking up the basics

General question asking everyone how long it took them to pick up the basics their first time snowboarding, it took me 1 day to learn to leaf confidently down blue runs and then the second day i was able to s down blue runs confidently. By the 4th day of snowboarding i was able to s down most black runs without having to stop or slow down. On the final day of my trip I hit up the snow park and learnt to do the rails and a few grabs like methods and indies and would get around 1meter of air while doing so Is this fast to pick it up ?

i know people who have ridden for two season who cant even do black runs yet

kudos to your instructor/teacher

if your self taught yourself, shaun white better watch out

wow thats really fast!

dude it took me 2 years to get carving down but that was back in the day when no one else knew how to board and I was mostly doing it on my own.

Then again there are so many videos and riders out there now you can pick things up a lot easier now.

i have a question to add on to this. i guess it would fit in the same category? i'm a self concious guy. i know i'm gonna get some douchebags that make fun of me on my jouney to get better.. but is the snowboarding community nice to noobs like me or no? i went for 1.5 days. but i stayed on bunny slopes. no pros there to make fun of me.
