Trick

MFM Butter

In the cited lesson, a frontside rolling nollie entry is followed by board redirection into a tail butter and a counterrotated frontside 180 exit.

HOW TO DO IT

MFM Butter

In this publisher's version, a frontside rolling nollie is redirected back into straight tail support, then released into a counterrotated Frontside 180. The redirection distinguishes the complete movement from the simpler sideways-butter rehearsal.

Preparation and setting

Tail Butter Frontside 180 and controlled nollie support changes. Begin with flatground rehearsals before adding terrain.

How to do it

  1. Use a heel-side setup to introduce frontside direction.
  2. Nollie with the rolling frontside movement.
  3. Redirect the board back toward straight tail support rather than merely continuing around.
  4. Open the upper body for the counterrotated exit.
  5. Pop Frontside 180 and ride away switch.

How to learn it

Rehearse without the board: ordinary nollie–tail butter–180; then rolling nollie into sideways support and finish; finally add the return to straight support before the exit. Repeat on snow. Rollers and knuckles are later applications, not required starting terrain.

Errors and corrections

Board never returns straight: practise the redirection separately. Trying to freeze a long press: the source describes the developed movement as a quick sequence. Confusing the preparatory version with completion: identify whether the return phase actually occurred.

Checks and cues

Rolling entry, board redirection and counterrotated exit are all present. Cue: roll, return, release. Treat this as an attributed version, not a universal definition across every school.

teaching summary — coaching review required

The source develops Tail Butter Frontside 180 first, then distinguishes a simpler rolling rehearsal from the complete redirection and exit.

editorial review notes

Do not equate the simpler rehearsal with the complete named movement or assume universal mechanics.
