I built a progression site for snowboard: the community edits the content, community votes changes in. Looking for testers to roast it.

Nothing beats a personal snowboarding coach. But 99% of the time I'm riding without one, and while there's a ton of great content online, piecing it together at the right level is genuinely overwhelming. You don't know what you don't know, and YouTube doesn't tell you what to work on next.

So I built a site that breaks Snowboarding into a step-by-step progression, small drills, clear cues, and a UI that tracks what you've checked off so you actually know where you are and what comes next.

The twist: it's a "Living Manual." Anyone can edit the tutorials, and the community votes on whether changes stick. I want the collective experience of riders to refine the drills, add better cues, and keep it sharp over time.

What would actually help me:

If you're currently learning, try it and tell me where a drill feels confusing, where the UI gets in the way, or where I'm just plain wrong.

Roasts very welcome. I'd rather hear it now than ship something mediocre.

Quick note on the bigger picture: the same problem exists in other sports, so there's also wakeboarding and calisthenics on site. Long-term vision is a hub for community-maintained skill roadmaps across sports and skills.

Happy to drop the link in the comments if you want a look.

I built a 'Wikipedia for calisthenics' — the community edit the drills, community votes changes in. Looking for testers to roast it.

Nothing beats a personal trainer. But 99% of the time I train alone and while there's a ton of great content online, piecing it together at the right level is genuinely overwhelming. You don't know what you don't know, and YouTube doesn't tell you what to work on next.

So I built a site that breaks calisthenics into a step-by-step progression, small drills, clear cues, and a UI that tracks what you've checked off so you actually know where you are and what comes next.

The twist: it's a "Living Manual." Anyone can edit the tutorials, and the community votes on whether changes stick. I don't want this to be my version of calisthenics, I want the collective experience to refine the drills, add better cues, and keep it sharp over time.

What would actually help me:

If you're currently learning, try a course and tell me where a drill feels confusing, where the UI gets in the way, or where I'm just plain wrong.

Roasts very welcome. I'd rather hear it now than ship something mediocre.

Quick note on the bigger picture: same problem exists in other sports, so there's also snowboarding and wakeboarding on there. Long-term vision is a hub for community-maintained skill roadmaps across sports.

I built a "Wikipedia" for Snowboard progression. Looking for testers and experienced snowboarders to help

Hey everyone,

I’m a believer that nothing beats a personal 1-on-1 coach. But 99% of the time I am riding without one. There is amazing content online but it can be overwhelming and difficult to find the right content at your level. 

So, I built a site that lays out snowboarding step-by-step progression with specific drills and UI for checkpoints.

The wikipedia

The concept is a "Living Manual": I don’t want this to be just my version of snowboarding. Users can actually edit the tutorials, and the community votes on whether those changes should be kept. The goal is to let the collective experience of the sub refine the drills, share better cues, and keep things up to date.

Want i am looking for

Testers: If you’re currently learning, I’d love for you to try a "course" and tell me if the UI makes sense or if a drill feels confusing. Or just anything you think.

The Pros: If you’re a certified instructor or a seasoned rider: I need you to verify/edit the content. I want the foundations of this site to be solid from the start. I would love to pay you for this work.

The vision

This problem is the same for other sports. I am into wakeboarding and calisthenics so there are courses for this as well on the site now. Eventually, I would love this to be a hub for learning skills through community maintained roadmaps.

I'm happy to share the link in the comments if you're interested in helping out.
