How to

Step by step
  1. A disaster is a trick where you spin 180 onto the edge of a feature (a lip or coping) so the edge sits under the middle of the board, between your bindings, stall there for an instant, and then come back in the way you came.

    The board ends up straddling the edge. It comes from skateboarding.

  2. The prerequisites are a solid 180 on (spinning 180 onto a feature) and a solid 50-50 (riding with the board set on the feature).

  3. The rotation is 180 degrees.

    Your spin is set at takeoff and can't be added in the air, so build enough at takeoff to get all the way around.

  4. This page doesn't yet cover the detailed steps for spinning 180 onto the edge.

    First build the feel of getting all the way around onto a feature with a 180 on, and try it once your logged makes are consistent.

Tips

The key to the shape is getting the edge right under the middle of the board, between your bindings.

COMMON MISTAKE

Landing on the edge short of a full 180 → not enough rotation from takeoff. Rotation can't be added in the air, so build the feel of getting all the way around on a 180 on before you try it.
