  • First Tricks?

    What are some good ground tricks that are easy and fast to learn? Or what were your first trick you learnt? Also if they are uncommon could you explain it or put links?
    Thanks

        The top three are the best, somersaults are much harder.

              Polish doughnut is when you lay out a carve get down onto your side and just spin on the ground and get back up. A pimp slide is when you nose butter and flick your heels 90 degrees sideways...I believe anyway.

                Ah is that what that's called? Someone asked me when I was doing it and I said "I don't know, it's fun though." Pimp slide, I'll have to remember.

                  somersaults aren't bad if the snow's soft.

                    ya there was some 70 or so year old guy at my hill doin some of the sickest ground tricks I have ever seen, he had an entire crowd watching him haha but ya start with butter then work up... donuts can be lots of fun too, especially if you can perfect em while duckin lift lines ha

                      Doughnuts under lift lines are the best, and sliding out under lines are pretty sweet too. Under normal conditions it doesn't look cool to slide out, but when you can do it under something and get up like nothing even happened...that is just ILL.

                        a pimp slide is riding switch and only being on the noses of your boards. you'll want to stagger your feet and keep them real close together. brett connor is good at these.

                          Ah, I'm not good at those... Guess I can't pimp slide. I usually lean too far and fall.

                            don't fall, do it. stagger your feet. the faster you go the easier it is.

                              Alright, will be practicing next time I'm up. Hopefully the new rain hasn't ruined the other parks kickers... I want to get that front flip down too.
