HOW TO DO IT

Reverse Turn — Toe Side

Hirama uses a sideslip/falling-leaf preparation for this toe-side reverse-turn topic. The caption does not fully define body orientation, support sequence or exit.

Preparation and setting

Controlled toe-side sideslip, falling leaf and switch travel; the named variant needs verification.

Available preparation and unresolved execution

  1. Rehearse a normal toe-side sideslip with a deliberate stop.
  2. Practise direction changes within falling leaf.
  3. Check uphill and downhill traffic before changing orientation.
  4. Identify the named reverse body/board relationship from technical evidence.
  5. Leave its full carved execution pending rather than prescribing an assumed twist.

Learning and practice

Use the documented sideslip preparation. It is preparation, not proof that every falling leaf is a Reverse Turn.

Errors and corrections

Losing visibility requires smaller practice scope and a reset. Forcing a rotation over an engaged edge changes the movement and may cause a catch.

Observable checks

Preparation is described; complete reverse-turn pathway remains unknown.

Additional teaching summary — coaching review required

Hirama (S3): begin with a skidded, falling-leaf-like rehearsal before refining the movement. Travels across the slope with reduced visibility; check surrounding traffic.
