Carved Turn Calculator

The calculator uses carved turn force balance equation described in article:
"Physics of a Snowboard Carved Turn"
by Jack Michaud with Iain Duncumb

Many interesting articles, Carving Community Forum, online store, photo and video files, equipment buy & sale department you can find on BomberOnline website.

The idea of calculator for certain parameters in snowboard carving is not mine. I have to give credit for the idea to Nate Waddoups who created several nice snowboard geometry calculators that could be explored after clicking here. My calculator uses slightly different approach and navigation. It is based on Newton's method for solving non-linear equations and therefore its results can have marginal numeric error.
