I want to take my 10 year old ( less than 5'6" fwiw) to start teaching him to skiboard.
I'm wondering if I should start him off on a pair of really short skis first (because of the releasable bindings and the fact that the shortest sb's that I own are 90cm, and the place that rents them only rents 99cm's) or should I just put him on the 90's and let him have at it? Note: he's never been before and he's not really a quick learner.
The sb's have the advantage of the extra width (groove skywalkers are the 90's that I own, also have a set of weapons, and mnp's in 94,98 cm's if for some reason they's be better.)
The skis I'd be able to get the shortest ones that they had at the rental shop, yet still allow him to have the releaseable bindings.
Maybe skiboards with poles??
Opinions, obviously I want to give him the best opportunity so he won't quit and never return...??
