Trick

Frontside 180 → Switch Tailpress → Switch Backside 180 Out — Feature

A documented feature combination: frontside 180 entry landing parallel with the feature in a switch tailpress, then a switch backside 180 exit.

HOW TO DO IT

FS180 → Switch Tailpress → SWBS180 Out — Mathes Version

The original lesson completesFS180 into parallel feature contact, then supported press and switchBS180 exit. Physical support naming in switch needs comparison.

Preparation and setting

Entry spin, switch aligned feature support and selected backside exit independently.

Known phases / unresolved execution

  1. No complete source-specific execution sequence is established; retain this item as an open editorial record.

Learning and practice

Practice entry reception and press release separately. Do not normalize physical nose/tail solely from the switch5-0 label.

Errors, limits and corrections

Entry incomplete: return to switch50-50. Overextended support: shorten press. Ambiguous board end: verify source demonstration.

Observable checks

Named sequence retained; exact physical support mapping remains review-dependent.

teaching summary — coaching review required

S12: complete the entry half-turn and land with the board parallel to the feature; hold a bent supporting knee with shoulders aligned. The exit uses head/front-shoulder backside rotation and landing awareness.

Distinct from the snow-butter combination 'Frontside 180 In → Switch Tail Butter → Switch Backside 180 Out'.
