Trick

Nollie into Tail Press

A preparation sequence: load the nose, pop and tuck the knees, then land in tail support.

HOW TO DO IT

Nollie into Tail Press — Preparation

Nose release receives tail support; source drills tuck the knees and use a small ollie as a later exit.

Preparation and setting

Controlled nollie and tail press separately on snow or training setup.

Execution / application sequence

  1. Load nose with modest demand.
  2. Release upward.
  3. Draw the board beneath the body.
  4. Receive tail support with a flexed knee.
  5. Hold briefly.
  6. Recentre or use the already reviewed small ollie exit..

Learning and practice

Start with a short support reception. Stationary hold duration is not rail advice.

Errors, limits and corrections

Landing rigidly slaps the nose down. Torso thrown back misses support: reduce travel through the transfer.

Observable checks

Departure and tail reception are deliberate in preparation context.
