ok, everyone is talking about back flips, rodeos, and front flips
 
 
how do you exectue them? whats a rodeo??
sorry, i have never done park before til this year, and im still trying to get my straight regular jump thing down....i can land small jumps. but not huge ones, so...will someone tell me how???
 
for frontflip and backflip, how do i approach the jump? do i bend my knees? when do i pop? when do i lean back?
 
everything becomes a factor with this stuff, how flexy your board is, how far apart your bindings are, what degree's they're set too, shit like that.
 
basically you've gotta try whatever it is you're trying to do, tweak around the bush until you've figured out how to dial it for yourself.
keep it steezy

I think flips are extremely overrated, I can do front flips, and I've managed to land a couple backs but flips don't really look good on snowboarding as they would with other sports.  Just my opinion.

'Bout the only trick I can do is a 360.

easier than 3's?? well i just might have to check this out :P although it might be a little risky considering 75% of the time half the runs at my mountain are ice.. is it hard to spot your landing or do you just ollie, lean back and hope for the best? lol
Posted by Ak49_rider
Do you think they look cool? how long did it take you to learn?
 
 
Personally i think they are easier to land, then threes....but iono that might just be me.....
And it took me a day and a half to learn....considering i only snowboarded for like 3 hours each of the days
