HOW TO DO IT

Ollie 180 Tail Catch → Switch Ollie BS180 Tail Tap

Daisuke's two-stage combination uses tail-catching snow support, then switch backside 180 with a tail tap. Catch is not evidence of a hand grab; the first spin direction remains unspecified.

Preparation and setting

Reliable small spins, controlled tail contact and independently reviewed support transitions.

Available preparation and unresolved execution

  1. Use the source's heel-side first departure without inferring its FS/BS label.
  2. Draw the board toward the body during the first 180.
  3. Flex into the tail-catching support.
  4. Release into the switch backside 180.
  5. Restrain excessive upper-body and visual continuation through the final tap.
  6. Absorb and return to controlled travel.

Learning and practice

Separate the first catch and the second tap movement. Do not teach contact timing without comparing the original demonstration.

Errors and corrections

Incomplete first 180 resembles another shape such as Owen. Unclear board elevation changes the contact sequence. Reduce complexity and identify each support before linking.

Observable checks

Both 180 phases and the distinct catch/tap contacts are identifiable; unresolved first direction and detailed timing remain explicit.

teaching summary — coaching review required

S6: heel-side first departure, draw the board toward the body, flex into the catch and release into the next movement; restrained upper body and visual continuation during the final tap and turn. Errors: an incomplete first 180 makes it resemble Owen; unclear elevation/contact timing changes the combination.

editorial review notes

'Catch' is a snow-support phase, not a hand grab.
