headspin123 has created a new forum topic Any strengthening exercises to make my legs stronger?. Posted on Mar 16, 2009
So every time I go snowboarding, my legs will start to feel tired after about 2 or 3 hours of riding.

Last year I thought I was pretty pro after I survived a black run (lol), but this year I bought my first oneniter pass and I've been trying to learn as much as I can on the mountain. But after the first 2 or 3 hours, my legs basically are weak to the point that I have a hard time just ollie off flat ground.

My legs start burning whenever I start practicing...anything...180s, butters, manuals, carving (i think it's carving)... all tire the crap outta me =( 

Is it just me or do you guys feel a bit tired as well?  My friend says that my board is to blame because I bought a really stiff board (Option Jordan Mendenhall).  I think that's part of the reason too, because I can only do manual for like ONE second even if I nollie first and throw all of my weight on my back leg, the board will basically snap back no matter what.

But are there any exercises I can do to strengthen my legs so I can make more use of my 6 hours on the slopes?
