HOW TO DO IT

Tail Press Frontside 180 Out — Feature

Tail support aligned along a feature, then a counterrotated Frontside 180 at its end. The board stays along the feature while the torso prepares the exit.

Preparation and setting

Tail Press, 50-50 Frontside 180 Out and the snow rehearsal. Begin on a suitable small box; feature suitability and entry timing are site-specific.

Execution / application sequence

  1. No complete source-specific execution sequence is established; retain this item as an open editorial record.

Learning and practice

Practise the snow counterpart and press without an exit first. The source also uses purpose-built balance apparatus for the press-and-release movement. Join the tasks on the small box before changing feature type.

Errors, limits and corrections

Hips open with shoulders: isolate upper-body preparation. Brief 50-50 before pressing: examine entry/support timing. Early board rotation: practise aligned presses with ordinary exits.

Observable checks

Tail contact remains along the feature until the exit; no accidental edge catches or sideways departure. Cue: flat support, square hips, exit at the end.
