The Burton Academy at Northstar Trick Tip: The Frontside Lipslide

by Northstar California Videos

Uploaded 3 months ago
The Frontside Lipslide: A Staff favorite, and one of the best sideways-sliding tricks to learn! The reason this is a "Frontside" trick is because the rider approaches the box/rail on their toes, with the feature to the front of their body. It's called a "Lipslide" because the rider pops and rotates the tail of their board over the box/rail first. After clearing their tail over the feature, the rider will then land sideways and across the box, sliding…

by Northstar California Videos

Uploaded 3 months ago

The Burton Academy at Northstar Trick Tip: The Tail Block

by Northstar California Videos

Uploaded 3 months ago
The Tail Block: One of the most playful and tech board tricks out there. Keep in mind that this is a low-speed jib, usually performed on a transition or in the flats (while you're waiting for your buddy that forgot his gloves in the car...). The Crew at The Burton Academy loves this trick (we practice daily on the carpet and then out on our quarterpipe). Remember The Steps… - Practice a strong tail press with your back leg bent, and then focus on…

Uploaded 2 months ago
Trick Tip #6: The Method Grab A must-have stye trick that's as classic as it is fun to pull all over the mountain. It's easy to think that this is "just a grab", but there are so many stylistic differences and variations that it can be confusing to know what a "real" method is! The key ingredients are: - A strong pop followed by pulling the knees up toward the chest. - Grab melon (lead hand on the heelside edge between the feet). - There has to be…

The Burton Academy at Northstar Trick Tip: The Frontside Boardslide

by Northstar California Videos

Uploaded 2 months ago
The Frontside Boardslide When it comes to riding rails, few tricks look as good and feel as solid as the iconic Frontside Boardslide. To really lock-in this trick, it’s important to first spend time on the movements in a flat, non-sliding environment (your carpet or the flats at the bottom of the lift). On flat boxes you can get away with just a little hop, but when you take it to down features you must be able to ollie off your toe-side edge to…

The Burton Academy at Northstar Trick Tip: The Backside 360

by Northstar California Videos

Uploaded 2 months ago
The Backside 360: This trick is sometimes called "The Blindside 360", because your eyes will have already started to look away from your direction of travel before you leave the ground. Even though you start out looking blind, backside 3's are easier for some people to land because they get to see their landing very early in the spin; and that can be comforting! The difficult part is developing comfort in your approach, a solid set up, and clean…
