Do a few runs slowly sliding down straight.
Let your dominant foot lead and point directly down the hill, riding for a short distance, and then turn (looking back up the hill) to slow or stop yourself.
As long as your weight is over your front foot and you're able to turn your top half, your legs and board should eventually follow. Just give yourself time and space.

It's okay do use your hands to balance/catch yourself, just don't take a whole run with your hands on the snow.

Wear a helmet- if you catch your heel edge, your head will slam into the ground.

You will be facing uphill, so make sure to keep checking behind you to make sure you do not hit anyone or anything.
