Backside 180 Snowboard trick

Ross to here with you today. A little bit under lobe. Little bit drinking last night. It was Jen’s birthday. A little sushi, s little alcohol, also Canadian that is good chef. Not the gym master for sure. But I like jumps. I may teach my favorite trick that I like to do on a jump. It is Backside 180 and mix it up with any kind of variation you want, grab it , trick it, let it float. No matter how good you are or how bad or you suck. If you do backside 180 clean, people like that.

(Demonstration)

So, when approaching the jump to do a backside 180. You are going to hit it pretty much like a normal jump. The only difference is, you are going to put a slight amount of toss side pressure out, not a lot but just enough to have something to spin off of it.

Launch up the jump, get a good hard oley, roll off of it but you are going to turn your head just a little better, turn your hips just a little bit to start the rotation but not much. I like to try to get the knees up, grab the board again, to a nice control position as soon as possible. To get some stability there.

The next you are going to do, start looking at Elmer’s helm as he takes off, is look up the nose of your board or your front foot. It is actually going to be blind rotation. Your going to flying to the air blind. You are going to need to start spot the landing backwards.

So, if you start look over your head. You are going to be reverted to 270 or 360. so, watch your nose and watch the snow come up backwards. Try to put the landing gear down, stabilized it and try to put side amount to pressure. Actually, when you land, just like you take off, another soft that board from spin out. As soon as you get control look up and ride away.

(Demonstration)

For our next trick tips coming up. We are going to double Steve against Jim action. We are going to have Brodster doing a 360.
