direction as many riders find it easier. Frontside 180 to tail butter, switch backside

180 out.

I've broken this whole trick down into a bunch of stepping stones to make leaning it as easy

as possible. If this is a new trick for you, then try each of these steps a couple of times,

then spend most of your time practicing the actual trick.

Step 1: Sliding While riding, slide a frontside 180 then a

switch backside 180. Pay attention to the to the line of approach.

I'm setting up with using a obvious heel edge turn to slide the frontside 180 and using

my toe edge to slide the switch backside 180. If you watch closely you'll see that the frontside

180 is more of a rotational movement where my upper and lower body both rotate together

and the switch backside 180 is a counter-rotated 180 where the upper and lower body rotate

against each other. Sliding these 2 180s will give you the most basic movements involved

in this trick.

Step 2: Add ollies Ollie a frontside 180, then ollie a switch

backside 180 This uses the exact same entry path and movement

as step 1 with a rotational 180 followed by a counter-rotated 180. The ollie is one of

the most fundamental tricks in snowboarding. All good riders use ollies and nollies into

and out of their butter tricks.
