Why am I opening the Good advice column?

The "Good advice" column will probably be a long "neverending story".

We turned 25 years old with the snowboard shop, we can say that we are the same age as the history of Hungarian snowboarding, and after all these years we can say: the situation on the beginner front has not changed.
Beginners or advanced boarders can buy cards from many forums, but usually the blind lead the ignorant.

Chaos continued to grow along the increasingly mature snowboard building and "SHAPE" store, and the maze became even bigger if a beginner boarder cannot turn to an up-to-date specialist.

But nothing that has been invented in the last 25 years, since this wonderful recreational sport took off, is not stupid. We need to get back to clarifying the basics so that shopping for snowboard gear doesn't feel like looking at a painting in an art gallery. I'm well aware that many snowboard shops have been demolished and destroyed in the last couple of years. This is sad for the profession, if we accept that there is such a profession.

The fact that customers have the courage to visit various department stores or online portals - for almost any amount of money - shopping without a meaningful exchange of ideas, in my opinion, tragic. The question of "authenticity" must come to the fore again. I claim that salespeople and representatives of specialized stores should upload a video of themselves, so they can see how they slide on the snow, either with skis or snowboards on their feet.

The example of trade on an industrial scale reminds me a bit of how we buy fanglit from the bricklayer when building a house at Baumax. Or for ourselves. We've never worked with him before. So why do we expect an instructor to teach us how to board well on a board bought (or recommended) by someone who has never been on a board? It doesn't matter if we don't understand it or the seller does.
And if we want to learn on our own, then an incompetent dealer will practically shoot us out of his shop and onto the snowy mountainside in the impossible category.
If the skiers and snowboarders of the future make do with Decathlons, Hervis, eBays, Blue Tomatoes and Jófogs - don't be surprised at the failure. And it costs the most.

It's time to help our customers more, we simply need to clarify the basic concepts. In Hungarian, intelligibly, not in English, in slang, with incomprehensible phrases.
This column will do just that, and I hope it sets an example.
