[@Raskolnikovishere]

Is it just me or does the roll look like a awesome trick all by itself

[@psvita2335]

thats what i was thinking

[@VenMarsArgs]

Hell yeah like WTF.. the bomb all on it's own

[@yycwill]

Yeah

[@jackwhite9509]

it’s so much fun

[@samnielsen5906]

I actually think it is a trick, it’s called a Roly Poly I believe

[@BRAAAPOLOGY]

99.99% balls, .01% skill. Makin it look so easy since 2013.

[@jake4297]

It’s all confidence honestly. I just did my first one today. I was fine on the nuckel but not on the jump

[@--_V_--]

5:02 that was just beautiful.

[@bradenatchison7731]

As a shredder that lives in Ohio, we don't get enough snow to ride anything other than ice, soft spots on the mountian dont exist. For anybody that wants to learn these that lives is similar conditions, try to find a really really small jump. Like one that has less than 5-10 feet of space between the ramp and the landing, almost to the point where its not even really a jump. After doing all these steps, thats where i learned them. Shoutout to all the midwest shredders.

[@zachpollard2294]

yep, I'm from Michigan and this is exactly what I was thinking the entire time watching the video. thanks for the info!

[@Natureorganica]

Haha its true. Mad River fucked me up trying shit like this.

[@Ty-vk5do]

Im in the same situation it sucks

[@tylerjohnson7414]

Wassup fellow Ohioan

[@obamna5016]

Braden Atchison thanks I’m in Ohio too

[@Yurppppppppp]

This is explained so clearly. Love how you progress into it rather than getting right into the main jump, thanks a lot. I'm gonna try and get it down by the end of this season.

[@maxdoubt6504]

did you try it?

[@Yurppppppppp]

xazzbi hahaha don't worry I did not break my neck trying this. Last season was my first season so this was a bit ambitious, definitely trying this season tho!

[@Yurppppppppp]

Awwww thank you :') hope you have an amazing season as well :)

[@YREHCorp]

don't worry there's practically no difference between theory and practice, ever

[@KieranDuncan]

this is my first season too. its scary to get inverted, but once you do it it is really easy. spinning is harder than just a regular flip.

[@adriengilles4377]

THIS YEAR IS THE YEAR

[@HelenKellerDenier]

1 year checkup. How did it go?

[@dang8961]

Also curious.

[@alexjuhasz3687]

2020 is my year🤙

[@conif]

2021 i will learn it!

[@stefanobenedetti6546]

2024 is my year! I'll be back in 2 days

[@kylewoloshyn14]

This is the first trick I learnt when snowboarding and it is by far still my favourite, taught myself using skills learnt from trampoline. This video explains everything so perfectly and explains the whole process perfectly! Great vid!

[@ondratitera3423]

5:02 The best flip what I´ve ever seen! wow! I like it!

[@SushiPizza42]

I'm mastering this move this season!

[@KintrumOfficial]

Al 3000 same

[@SushiPizza42]

Just one more month till the snow :)

[@ctarmy2310]

Same👌

[@justinkim7981]

I am bad at snowboard so I am just trying to 180 spin

[@GamersockeLP]

me too bro !

[@Angel-kx5vz]

I looked up how to tame a dog and found this... now my dog knows how to do a front flip on a snowboard.

[@misterfunnybones]

I do involuntary, unintentional tamedogs; it's not pretty.

[@intelligenceiskey5046]

lol

[@YREHCorp]

when the dog tames you

[@Noshua_]

Hery that's in Soviet Russia... I love it

[@drewd1129]

Same bro.. same

[@1Flyingfist]

misterfunnybones As long as you ride away like you meant it, nobody will know 😎

[@braedenoackes5019]

I finally landed a tamedog. thanks

[@quikboarder93]

I've been able to do these for like 5 years, but only off small park jumps because it gives you the pop, even if you throw your momentum downward. I'm definitely not there yet for small rollers and such, but practicing nollies all over the mountain really helped me get a bit closer. Thanks for the tips!

[@OFCR1]

This is old but still so relevant - Good work boys what an amazing tutorial!

[@mikesheehan7284]

This is awesome man. Been snowboarding for like 7 years now. The past like 2 ive really been trying to go a little harder but i couldnt risk getting hurt because I was commited to sports. Im glad I saw this video though man its going to help me out a lot. Keep these kind of videos coming. Thanks dude.

[@kadebigfoot]

Y do I torture myself and watch this in the summer

[@ZigySpACe]

Sam

[@jewelsmostajo7381]

My gosh I can't wait to shred some snow 🙈🙈

[@marttivesala1634]

Same

[@syeru]

Why do I torture myself by watching this when my area has no snow :'(

[@jackv3330]

Mitch Makuski same i live in Florida :(

[@12344321bubba]

So glad seasons finally coming around the corner great vid

[@emilkuusisto773]

This is my goal for this season :DDD

[@memenation9494]

mine 2

[@memenation9494]

Tuun varmaan kuolee

[@emilkuusisto773]

+Jeebus doesnt like hotline bling (Anally) XD

[@MW-tv2xj]

This is my goal for next week, gotta impress someone lol

[@GavinGamer-ly4jf]

Did you do it?

[@donniemacleod5916]

As a career coach (and victim of broken tib and fib getting the f-flip wrong on kickers) this is the best set up I've seen for leaning nollie f-flips. Tamedog will never catch on!! Well done guys. Donnie @ Synergy Snowsports.

[@sirjordanx]

Good tutorial, I saw someone doing tamedogs and came home and watched this and got it down on my first try :D

[@sgose4390]

Landed my first few today, 6 to be exact. My local mountain is mt. Buller and it never gets any powder and overnight we had 30cm causing enough soft snow to try these. I'll post a video of me doing it on my channel soon. The only thing I tried was the roll and then I went straight into it. Thanks guys helped a lot

[@sgose4390]

+Snowboard Addiction yeh I did it was amazing cheers for helping!!

[@danielhutt1570]

Dude, the quality, breakdown and teaching on these vids-although already good, has really improved! Absolutely love it, great work!

[@Sn0wboarder2011]

This Video is one of the best snowboard videos EVER! Thank you very much for this awesome technique for tame dogs! In this winter i'll learn it!

[@davidkerridge3889]

hitting the bansko slopes tomorrow for a week! def getting this one done!

[@KaiserinAstrid]

I found front flips to be harder to do than back flips because you see where you land better on back flips. Good tips. I wonder if I'm watching this due to snow deprivation. Odd thing to say from Sweden.

[@KaiserinAstrid]

People are apprehensive about backflips in general because I suppose it's a rare movement naturally. I think I'll be a little afraid to do anything crazy, at least at first, after messing up my knee. :(

[@skab111]

***** I have mastered back flips in trampolines and I land on both feet in airbags but still I am a bit afraid to take it to the kickers. Need to wear my helm for sure :P

[@KaiserinAstrid]

Alex S Just try it on a powder day with your helmet on.

[@TheMotherfuckinJones]

The earth is changing, it's breaks my snowy heart that mankind isn't pushing to make the difference. from new mexico with a usually good snow season. is snow deproved to..

[@TheMotherfuckinJones]

I just wanna hit the pow pow now haha

[@arthurtabakov6028]

Holy crap! I landed this on my first try! Feeling stoked!! Just do it and dont be scared get over your feer and youll be good.

[@Lembuzz]

Thanks for the tutorial! I'll surely practise frontflip this season. Best regards from Russia

[@MCWizard]

No really, I've seen soooo many tamedog vids where they describe it as a 3 step process and then you "just do it" That was a great, well spoken, informative lesson. I've had a handful of attempts, and "almost" landed 1 and after watching this I'm pretty sure I see where I was going wrong. Thankyou!!!

[@EMAGDNiM]

seemed like a very thorough tutorial... cant wait till the next pow day so i can give it a real try.

[@timmyirou874]

***** I've been practicing my nollies, and i think I have them down, however I'm worried I'll under rotate the trick and land on my head. Any advice to keep that from happening.

[@iceman28m]

Great video! I'm 6'2" tall and by following every step on here I nailed it on my third or fourth attempt.

[@DeanerWasHere]

It worked! After about eight attempts (and four tomahawks to the dome), I stomped it clean! So fun! The key is definitely rocking back to your tail first. You guys rule! I'll be working on The Squirt to handplant this weekend. Thanks!

[@phill93]

Joe Dean TV Spots squirt????? Ahahaha

[@kaihacker5717]

Ben trying this trick for two weeks finaly landed it thanks dude

[@seattleforlifehd567]

while learning this i took off my board and on a crevis jumped and did a tamedog, this made spinning on my board easier

[@keirhuxtable3648]

last season I'm from Australia so the season just ended. but last season I got a double tamedog and this video has still helped me out

[@MrTEN5E]

This looks so fun. Now I just need to wait for snow again :D

[@RobS_Kingmakers]

Great breakdown of this trick - one of the best instructional vid's I've seen. Thanks ;-)

[@juanchaher1810]

today I tried it for the first time. the hardest part was allignment whichs is thoroughly explained in this video so i hope to get it right tomorrow :)

[@jbro238]

Its all about commitment, pretty low impact trick if you commit to the flip. I can do it off a ton of features now. For me the 2 keys to locking it down are 1. committing 2. REALLY nollie into it. load your back and then throw yourself into the nollie for the best rotation :D

[@morgannowlen8375]

I like the INTRO on this vid: It makes you instantly not so “school oriented” which is of course toxic to snowboarders like me who failed out of high-school because they only focus on snowboarding, including silent video learning/streaming of SA instructional vids while the teacher thinks you’re reading cause you can hide a Cell phone behind your book or underneath your desk. Hey, BTW, you should teach new riders how to ditch class and or focus on snowboarding while you’re in it. That might help a lot of people who truly need a more “snow-based” environment in order to learn! Keep it up guys and soon there will be a psychological Diagnosis written into the extreme psychological/mental health problems book that assists snowboarders who obviously can only learn in the snow environment. You’re helping “Snowboard/snow necessary learners” to advance in life even though they can only do it on snow.

[@dylanwarner9175]

Snowboard Addiction Is one of my favourite companies. Love your tutorials and product.

[@3565Alex]

It took me about 5 tries to land and ride away...Amazing tutorial! Thank you so much Snowboard Addiction

[@furyx1000]

you guys might need to do some more advertising... this is the best tame dog tutorial I found on the internet yet the comments are so few... so are the views... *sad.

[@sammyhed]

Holy shit, i've been trying to learn these for a while and now i know exactly what im doing wrong. Great tutorial

[@sammyhed]

***** I was doing the thing where i was throwing my weight down instead of popping it up. The rolly-somersault thing helped too

[@brandonmunro6945]

Love the video, going on a yr 9 ski trip near the end of the year and hoping to show everyone off specially the teachers :). Ty a lot

[@kenotis1234]

Thanks for providing this video. I like that it covers all aspects of the trick, starting from the basic pop to taking it into bigger jumps. I am really impressed at how well you made the instruction: clear, concise, and professional.

[@Bencomail]

Careful guys ! That was my goal for the season, but after watching the video over and over again I decided to go practicing to roll on the floor on Xmas day... as my shoulder touch the snow it cracked. No more snowboard for the season and a funny looking collar bone now ;)

[@SuperBuzzyman]

Best video dont even have to look at another thanks!!

[@Tticoman2]

This is great ill follow the video when I get out on the slopes! Might be awhile considering I broke my arm.

[@reimarberge9293]

I have been riding for a half season, i’m gonna try this next weekend.

[@bigshot8524]

How’d it go?

[@AidanSmitfishing]

havent comitted to one yet but i started just on my feet and did front flips and side flips into powder to get used to the flip and got a strong nollie hopefully i can try them sunday

[@knarkartomten]

I really like how you teaching and give examples on how not to do it!

[@meaty_2853]

Wow, what a nice video! Can't wait until the next weekend to try this out

[@torsteinmusic]

My tip is to practice in deep powder or soft snow, this helped me as I'm not a very technical person, and learn faster by just jumping into it. :))

[@Swowboarder]

this tip was in the video

[@torsteinmusic]

I know, meant to say it works for me :))

[@sebastianglenn9658]

Awesome doing this when we get snow on my mountain!

[@jobsucks]

Wow! A new FREE tutorial. Thanks!

[@skltfz4997]

nice tutorial. especially that do not point down instead need a upper 45 angle. i can imagine the importance of it when i try to roll my body if my home LOL

[@georgiafinn4547]

man your a sick boarder , cant wait to try this !!!

[@yongsenlu1903]

you are awesome. I am going to try this winter!

[@zediminer8921]

thank you that guide helped a lot

[@MattManiaci]

This vid helped me out back in the day!

[@eirikhj882]

This is my fav snowboard trick :)

[@TunyacsapHofi]

You are the gratest in making educational videos, clean, simple, high quality, congrats!

[@owenmowery8176]

I'm trying this this weekend, wish me luck!

[@davidparker9165]

Excellent tutorial. You guys have some sick videos. Every step is something I can do, which makes the flip look doable as well. Cheers!

[@martinjoseph1287]

Homies, thats a fine explanation! Cheers to the SA crew! Proooops from Switzerland!

[@neilbower123]

Great instruction & clips, as always. Cheers

[@chrislopez5365]

[@bezumny]

Спасибо за видео. Thanx for your teaching !

[@skab111]

top tutorial probably the best out there, so stocked to ride!

[@hamsolo474]

Excellent tutorial, easy to follow in looking forward to trying this

[@johhnytreason69]

Awesome tutorial, I know this step by step is going to get me doing tamedogs in no-time. I like how the roll looks too, cpol thing to have in your inventory of tricks even without the full front flip

[@STR202]

Whats funny is this is extremely similar to a webster side flip in freerunning. I came looking here to see what it was called and i think this is pretty sick video.

[@STR202]

Those of you not wanting to get hurt. Get side flips down on a trampoline and youll see theres no way to really be hurt doing them. If you carry the type of style over i think it should be the same. Hope this helps!

[@agris2k9]

Great vid, good job guys! I particulary like how you broke it down in smaller preparation exercises - made it look more achievable. Guess it'll take quite long to learn that, but i'm gonna start next week!

[@nathansartori6854]
