How to

Step by step
  1. Approach the rail from the backside (the side where the rail ends up behind you), riding straight at a slow, controlled speed.

    Too much speed kicks the nose off the moment it touches, so keep it to a pace you can manage.

  2. Just before the rail, do a small ollie.

    Bend your front knee to load, then snap off the tail (back) to lift the board.

  3. While in the air, turn your hips and shoulders toward your backside to rotate the board about 90 degrees, so the nose (front) lines up over the rail.

    Keep your eyes on the far end of the rail (the direction you want to slide).

  4. As the nose lands on the rail, press through the ball of your front foot and fold deeply at your front hip to bring your weight over the nose.

    Let the back foot feel almost weightless, putting about two-thirds of your weight on the front foot. This makes the nose alone grip the rail, turning the board sideways into a slide instead of riding flat.

  5. During the slide, hold a low stance with your knees bent to roughly 70-80 degrees, and open your upper body (shoulders and chest) toward the way you want to go.

    If your body leans to the backside you fall, so keep your pelvis stacked directly over the rail.

  6. As the end of the rail nears, shift the weight from your front foot back to your back foot while turning your hips toward your direction of travel, bringing the board back parallel with your path.

  7. Return to even weight on both feet and absorb the landing through your knees.

Tips & common mistakes

Tips

Lock your eyes on the far end of the rail as you approach. On the backside the rail sits behind you and is hard to see; looking down at your feet tips your upper body to the backside and makes you fall.

COMMON MISTAKE

The nose doesn't reach the rail and you get a boardslide (the whole board slides flat sideways) → the ollie didn't send your body forward and your weight stayed over the back foot → at the moment of the ollie push your chest and belly button toward the rail to carry your weight onto the nose.
