The skidded turn is the most versatile turn as you The skidded turn is the most versatile turn as you can take it anywhere on the mountain, from the beginner hill all the way to the steeps To do this turn most effectively we want to steer the board with our front leg rather than our rear leg. An analogy to compare this to is how the truck steers the trailer. Start on a flat bit of terrain getting comfortable with opening and closing the front leg to the nose of the snowboard. This rotational movement is done mainly through the femur in the hip socket. This movement should be made ideally in a half circle shape as if to outline the tip of the snowboard. Once you have felt this on the flat then try it simple with one turn at a time. Starting with the board in the fall-line try opening that front leg to go to your heel side turn. Then do the same thing to the toe turn except this time try closing your front leg to the toe side turn. Finally try putting this all together making some smooth skidded turns focusing that rotation out of the front leg. Once you have this mastered look to change the timing, intensity, and duration of this movement to create different turn sizes and shapes to master all types of terrain.

The backside 180 is one of those feel good tricks The backside 180 is one of those feel good tricks and also has many variations. Learn this trick first by starting on the flat terrain with your board off. First getting the timing of the pop using solid flexing extension movements in both legs is key. Then focus on using your upper body to create the rotation through the spine first stating open then rotating towards the tail. Now put it together trying to land softly by flexing your legs on impact. Then repeat this whole thing again with the board on still in the flats and not moving. Now while traversing across on your toe edge try just some simple hops at first. Then try doing the 180 on the ground by rotating your nose of the board up the hill and the tail down whilst changing edges to the heel side and riding out switch. Remember to keep your eyes back toward where you came from until all the rotational movements are done. Then you can try to slowly blend them together by doing the hop and quickly the pivot. Now try starting with only 90 degrees of the rotation and then try doing the second 90 in the air. Eventually you will try doing the full 180 first across the hill and then when you’re comfortable, down the hill. Then try some different variations such as Ollie, Nollie, and even late backside 180s. Try doing then off cat-tracks and roller as well as the jumps. The bigger the feature the slower the rotation. Remember to always spot those landings cause this trick is quite blind! Like this post and save it so you can watch it next time you’re out riding.

The frontside nose roll is one of those fundamenta The frontside nose roll is one of those fundamental tricks that will help you with learning lots of other fun tricks. First starting on the flat with the board off practice shifting your weight to the front leg. At the same time you want to rotate your hips and front leg pivoting on your lead leg whist standing on your heel. Now try with the board on and doing a traverse lifting your rear leg. This should be a quick movement rather than a sustained press. Then it’s time to practice the rotation. To do this do some flat spin frontside 180’s from heels to toes. Now it’s time to put that rotational and pressure movement together and do the frontside nose roll. Try doing it in a traverse first on your heel side edge. If you have some fear you could even steer the board into the fall-line first 90 degrees and then roll the second 90. Once you are comfortable with it try it down the fall-line and have fun with it.

A frontside 360 tail butter is a trick where you s A frontside 360 tail butter is a trick where you spin slowly on the tail of your board whilst keeping the nose off the snow. Firstly it’s a good idea to practice managing pressure on the tail of the snowboard by flexing up rear ankle, knee, and hip. Aligning your hips over the tail of the snowboard. Next get comfortable doing the same tail press whilst moving straight down the fall-line on a easy green slope. Now you are ready to add in the rotation. While sliding in the tail press rotate your hips and spine slowly open to the nose of the board to do a 180 degree rotation. To get the full 360 butter you will need to add a subtle edge change through the rear foot to get the second 180 degree pivot. The first 180 degree butter is on your heels and the second is on your toes edge. Now that you got it. Play with changing the speed of the spin and the amount of spin.
