here's the thing, AS a long time Snowboarder and expert, if you're going to be doing 180° Spins (or experimenting with doing spins & spin tricks in GENERAL), you're gonna want to adjust your bindings for it. Doing a single 180° in the air is going to make you land "Fakie" (board backwards from natural) so if both Bindings are tilted like +20° & +10° towards the Nose, it's gonna make Fakie HARD, so you wanna point your Front Foot at for example +20° & then your Back Foot at -20°...
PLZ ANSWER MY QUESTION!! In competitions etc you see the snowboarders jump of a hill , do a cool stunt where his/her foot isn't on the board any mory , and then when they land the just get back on their board , now what I'm wondering is ; How can they remove their feet from the board while it is normally strapped on it ? and ofcourse when they land how do they get there foot back in strapped! ? thank you :)
look for features on the mountain itself... usually on the side of tracks there are piles of snow that can create a good ramp to start your first jumps... and its a side jump which means no increase in speed... much easier start ;)
none of the places around me have small jumps like that. I am currently learning how to hit jumps, but on ten foot gaps. I'm in a constant state of pain this winter :(
i used to skateboard from age 6 to 12-13 and i was really good for my age. but i have never ever stood on a snowboard. and id really like to snowboard sometime. can anyone tell me, do i have any advantages when snowboarding for the first time (cause i do have the feeling of standing on a similar board)? these basic tricks do look really easy to me but i cant tell as i just dont know... anyone in a similar situation? let me know please
@ChartheShark if your board is made of lead, buy a new one. if it isn't, train your muscles (e.g. jump a lot and ride or simply work out) until you can get the hight you want.
@SkipSkipSkipToMyLou You're going to first get on it and probably fall because you aren't used to the slippery surface. I don't snowboard, I ski, but I used to skateboard too and I definitely did pick it up quicker than average people. I would say you have an advantage, because you're used to balancing on a board.
@rastablader try SMOOTHSTAR in a youtube search. they are australian skateboards designed to practice surfing. it's not quite like snowboarding but it helped me build muscle strength and improve balance. no hill required.
Here my tutorial how i do that: 1. Find a jump 2. Jumping the kicker knowing nothing about the trick 3. Eating some snow... 4. Try again 5. Eating some more snow... 6. Try again 7. You can imagine whats next....
Wish i could save these videos to tale with me on the next snow trip. You should consider doing a DVD or a downloadable site for these.

The Radians joke was brilliant! I got it straight away :D
i can do this on a skateboard, will doing it on a snowboard be pretty simillar?

i find that i can't do this because i can't jump high enough, as if my snowboard is as heavy as lead. how do you jump higher?
Yes they do. They were talking about FS, but in the video they were doing BS (turning outwards and pushing that back foot with toes forward).
Where do you guys snowboard at?
no mention of preload with arms.
No problem, good luck!
Thanks u this is really helpfull
I just love that guy in the onzie
Is this at afton alps?

thanks for the invite, but I probably won't fly from America to New Zealand to learn how to frontside 180.
@JulixHartley Haha I'll make sure I do a lot of jumping from now on then!
I think that one 180 at :20 has some style
how tall are you in metrics?
i tried to do a 180 before i learned how to turn... it didn't go well

snow planets awesome!
1:34 ballin!
i agree
@aghiarasberry
No its frontside
Naw the front of your body is opened up and pointed at the landing FS rather then your backside going pointing down hill.
dat pass
@definitionsk8boards yea i agree..
nice
Nice back! ;)
wicked
Im in Maine.
this. is.. AWESOME! xD
same here :)
For real tho, you dont need to learn a 180, you just do it
@AwHiTeKiD69 he asked what kind of board he should get, not for a report on when you started and how amazing you think you are.
Here my tutorial how i do that:
1. Find a jump
2. Jumping the kicker knowing nothing about the trick
3. Eating some snow...
4. Try again
5. Eating some more snow...
6. Try again
7. You can imagine whats next....
come to new zealand , auckland and go to snowpanet
I bet it actually snows where you live, not here in new York or massachusets or maine or vermont
156 would be perfect
I know
@kpopRC 2:58
@DragonBrethProz hi
I WANT SNOW, I WANT A MOUNTAIN.
no it's a backside, even according to your definition; she's looking uphill during the trick
1:37 fail she hit the roof with the basketball!
yeah, I'm, at the point where I've felt the most pain im gonna feel, so I just fucking do it now.
59"
@susanafduarte search "youtube downloader" on google,
i: "get rational" π: " get real"
You've got FS and BS mixed up...
2:10 is a backside 180...
@fillecool2 you & me both :(
You don't have to rotate the 180 before the take off!!!!! STRAIGHT!
lol I hate radians lol
Lol true
That's right, a girl is better at snowboarding than you
with pie? haha
Porn-caliber acting. I love it.
@simplenamehere So uncool how every jump is made for teenaged heroes now...
180 are easy as hell you don't know a jump lol I can do a 360 on flat ground
