Live Coaching: Common Mistakes With Backside Boardslides

[@martina2659]

What helped me when learning these was to stretch out my leading arm and point at the end of the box. This kept me balanced over the box or rail and prevented me from slipping back and falling on my butt

[@hackebeil20]

Yeah this also helps you not starting to turn on the box.

MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED

[@Jon_Crawford]

These live coaching videos are awesome!! Keep them coming. Greatly appreciated!

[@luisg1653]

Great advice and good job for him improving

[@Howardtrn]

the forward momentum allows for less necessity to balance, just like on a bicycle the forward motion allows less force needed from the side to keep balanced

[@epikplatypus11]

the reason a bicycle stays balanced is because of the gyroscopic effect produced by rotating masses (the wheels). Since there are no wheels on a snowboard, this doesn't apply

[@alicex6825]

Just wandering if SA can do a leader video in the snowboarding tour history by teaching woman snowboarding improvement?

[@mirchandise]

[@KapitanPisoar1]

15/-15 for the win in park and switch. For powder I do 15/-6

[@herkesyadahickimse2397]

thank you

[@Thadnill]

My only concern with trying to lean too much forward is to catch a toe edge and face plant the box - is this even likely to happen ? Because if not, then I have nothing to worry about lol

[@mattfrostii1114]

Happens to me a lot. Just don’t go TOO far and you’re chillin

[@franckdebank]

Needed to see some riding improved...not disappointed

[@KapitanPisoar1]

You need to find somebody who's name is Jerry for one of you videos! :D

[@jedurix]

what brand and centimeters is your snowboard?? you with the blue jacket

[@SamClarkschannel]

The goal is to stay as flat as you can on the box. I see soooo many kids lifting their toes. The second your edge hits that box you're smacking that booty. Just stay flat.

[@tjgotbands]

my most common mistake is not getting a full 90 degrees i’m always like 70 degrees

[@Jasin2183]

I was waiting for the tips on BACKSIDE board slides but this was all frontside, fail

[@boivintof]

Yet it IS backside. Frontside is when your back is facing the slope. Yup it's confusing, especially on a box, but backside means you approach with the feature on your heelside... Many SA vids explain this quite well (recently, look for the training board vids...)
