Someone told me you only use your shoulders to turn in snowboarding. So you don’t use your legs at all?
Never done snowboarding by the way but I got all my gear and ready to go =)
Reviewing the answers that you have so far should tell you that you can’t learn how to snowboard from the Internet! Your friend is partly right… and many of the other answers to your question are also partly right. The whole story of how to turn your snowboard is too long to get into on Yahoo answers!
Take a lesson from a certified instructor. You will see all the skills and motions needed to get that snowboard to turn.

hmm your friend either is F****ing with you or he was talking about spinning and since you havn’t gone snowboarding he was just joking. To learn you mostly use your legs and the core of your body. But if you arn’t 8 years old don’t bother going just stay at home and do drugs.

You use your whole body, kinda guide with your hips actually. Hard to explain, you just have to go for it!
