Term

Garland

Repeated partial turn actions that release and re-engage the same edge without completing an edge change.

GLOSSARY · Turns & riding control

In a garland the rider starts a turn toward the fall line and then returns to the same edge before completing it, repeating this across the slope so the track looks like a garland. It practises turn starts without committing to a full edge change.

Context and distinction

Garlands stay on one edge; linked turns change edges. A garland is a learning exercise, not a turn type used for everyday riding.
