Trick Tip - Frontside 5

[Hatsie98]

yeaaahhhh i do frontsides off toes also....but not as sexy as he does em

[KAMTxInferior]

the way u took of that jump i was like wtf. SO sick

[devin6300]

spinning off of your toes to do a frontside is way to hard!

[mcbabe]

thats a hardway 5...

[MrBrendanCunningham]

@mcbabe hardway is onto a rail/ box etc

[carrotjuice555]

I can only do these switch..

[barneylikespandex11]

isn't that alley oop 5?

[whyytee18]

@barneylikespandex11 it is

[MrBrendanCunningham]

@barneylikespandex11 alley op is like in a pipe or quarter something on the backside wall but throwing a frontside trick

[ryanblinkguy]

damn that is a steezy 5, wish I could do mine like that

[patter9898]

Go to my page for free ride snowboard board gear! :) Just follow the link on my page

[NeroRome]

soo fucking stlyish

[Sabra516]

Ahh...it's coming back into sytle is it lol. This was an old way of spinning frontside, started in the early 90's. Anything bigger then 720 I start to go off my heel's. Also if you can do these its super easy to make them into rodeo 5's and 7's. You just drop you back shoulder more and lean into the jump a little more and look right over you front shoulder.

[lazdunck]

this is deff the sickest way. everybody throws these off the heels, almost cheating them in my opinion. spinning oppisite the edge you leave on is the steeze 4 sure

[MagicalPirate1]

off the toes, steeeezy

[cjatasu]

What track is playing?

[LaneTheMilkMan]

it says at the end dummy

[cjatasu]

Lol. Thanks I deserve that. I guess I should wait til the end. At least I know. I think I sort of created a Youtube filter to just tune out everything that appears at the bottom that pops up like an ad.

[HshredThegnarP]

@doomguild no its harder... but i was doing them today though?

[HshredThegnarP]

@doomguild because thats the trick... fs 5 of your toes.

[L226U268K3123E]

Just hit the jump with enogh speed and throw your arms . .

[CptAwesomePwnsYou]

NICE BACKSIDE 5

[Biker12100]

that was frontside, not backside. although he did pop off his toes he opened up his body to the hill making it frontside.

[flipualexflip]

@CptAwesomePwnsYou lol ur slow u dont know ur sides

[anyrida]

he swung his back foot forward, thats how u kno it was a frontside.

[cubemaster590]

i find if u keep your shoulders equal and try not to dip your shoulders you should be fine

[mbb3]

Hey! A ittlte question regarding spins on snowboard.... I have a hard time getting the spin not to cork. I know that it partly has something to do with the angle of my head... But recently i've started to think that it has something to do with initiation of certain muscles. I think that I don't contract my stomach muscles.... Any of you guys that can help me out??? Do you use your stomach muscles when you are spinning???? Do you keep them contracted during the entire spin or just the jumpedge??

[theoobbs]

what i like to do is hold my core (stomach) locked (flexed) and keep my whole body as controled and in shape (knees bend hands low head looking over shoulder) for as long as possible. i find that if you do all the work for the trick before you take off and then once you are airborn you dont move at all you will cork much less and spin more controled... but then again corks are also bad ass so if ur landing em lol go 4 it

[anthonyfireballs]

learn without board just do that alot the n when u try it its way easier

[jam5245]

your probably throwing ur spin on and angle, make sure ur momentum is thrown completely horizontal

[Huminik]

you dip your shoulder down when you are in the air spinning

[eastonhcky7]

Butter!

[TyLaCross08]

awesome 5 the spin off the toes is so smooth its rediculous hes amazing lol

[maximustrainingwave]

thanks guys

[cantseejack]

This front 5 is absolutely perfect. Bryan Fox is the man.

[3596KoreanGuy]

kinda alley oops it a bit

[slopesripper]

just kinda.

[maximustrainingwave]

you look like u are going to do a backside 5

[DJJUSSI]

Your thinking of Jibbing.Jumping with face down hill is frontside , back down hill is backside.Jibbing is opposite.

[maximustrainingwave]

yeah i know that but aren't you supposed to pop off ur heel edge when spinning frontside and on your toes for backside?

[DJJUSSI]

Na mate its all to do with the way you rotate clockwise /anti-clockwise from the way your riding regular/switch etc...

[DJJUSSI]

Says Who...Mate how log you been boarding..White done a backside 7 at x games off his heeledge its all todo with the way you spin nothing at all to do with what edge your on...

[maximustrainingwave]

not long... this is going to be my second year... I know its all shoulders but I though when doing a frontside you pop off your heel edge and when spinning backside you spin off your toe edge... i guess not... if this guy can do it, it must work

[DJJUSSI]

Sweet mate I wasnt being nasty i can see how you thought but check out Shaun Whites transfer at x games 13 slopestlye its awesome they said its almost impossible cause of the way he was carving in and then jumping off his heel side amazing...Keep up da boarding mate

[JDP000109]

Its easier to spin frontside off your heels thats the way you should learn it first

[PunaniLicker69]

um no, its different for every1. i prefer taking off toeside.

[JDP000109]

shutup

[PunaniLicker69]

yes mom.

[PunaniLicker69]

no. personal preference.

[JDP000109]

it is blatantly easier to learn to spin FS off your heels. It's not personal preference it's just physics.

[anthonyfireballs]

ether way learn fs off heel then go to the toes

[groovinonfunk]

Listen, I've only been riding for about two seasons as well, this is going to be my third. I'm just now to the point where I can start thinkin about doing 540s. For first starting off, I would say it is easier to think: "frontside spin off your heels, backside spin off your toes". It does make it easier, especially if you have issues catching edges. Shaun White, as DJJUSSI used in his example, has been doing this a bit longer than us so is obviously sick dirty nasty and makes his own rules.

[anthonyfireballs]

poping of the toes its better style

[RBCsnow]

i've seen that video before..that guy's sponsor me tape is insane. it's so smooth, i've never seen anybody ride with that much style and flow other than jed anderson.

[Snowboard022]

you wanna see some style, check out tim humphreys

[DashKT]

Just think of it as when you spin, if you're spinning and your back faces downhill first its a back side. If you're shoulders open up downhill first its front side

[linkage88]

i gotta question...

arent you suppose to pop off your heels?

[ngponygirl]

i love this trick

[mickeyprocon]

approach like you would a backside spin but dont carve into it, just takeoff from the balls of your feet and crank it frontside (think of your rear foot as your axis of rotation). practice toeside frontside 180's & 3's reg/switch first. CRAZY MORE POP THAN HEELS. good way to understanding a rodeo takeoff, which is very hard off the heels fs or bs

[kciskool11]

fronside spins off your toes are called fakie spins. think about it. it makes sence

[saddlebackdude123]

i tried this trick, but i ate shit cause it really hard to balance when u pop off your toes

[shecheers]

props to the camera dude on the first jump! haha :)

[jmoreau10]

you're a moron..heel side spins are a lot faster...toesides are just a different way..its preference...i can 10 heelside and i can also 5 toeside...but i know for a fact that i wouldnt be able to 10 toeside..it stops momentum and feels awkward

[RBCsnow]

yeah? i know for a fact that you can't spin 10 anyway. if you really can, post a video and hit me up.

[zzt0p11]

yea ok

[Whitepanda42]

Front spins from toe edge are so uber cool. I should train those also.

[jalenWB]

if you frontside off your toes, do you backside off your heels? cuz thats stupid

[wilsoncat69]

if you wanna die or do backflip180s then yea

[Xerwolf]

he got nice pop of style here

[ryanvwc10]

then approach the jump with more speed..spinning off ur heels is much easier and looks wayyyyy better...dont listen to this fool

[hytinendc18]

Im sure its been explained a million times already but I really dont want to read all the postings so......why is he going off his toes for a FS? Ive always thought FS is heels. Is it easier or is it a style thing?

[itssocalvin]

Thanks, I'm going to the hill in a minute and trying off my toes, if that helps that's fucking sweet, I always case my 5's on the edge of the landings.

Toes def. looks steezier

[K3O3O3O]

he spins so fucking fucked up

[Funnyhehe515]

off the toes looks soo cool but man it just doesnt seem right lol

[snowdogs23]

r u supposed 2 spin off your heels

[snowboardmarko]

yeah dont listen to this vid

[magnussk8s]

is it easier to spin fs on toesside? cus when i spin i carve on heels but i loose speed.

[snowboardmarko]

dont spin from toe side.

heel=frontside

toe =backside

[mostentertainment]

i think taking off a little bit on your heels looks better then this year 2000 style frontside 5.

[orsvend]

i think toe-side fs spins is RAD. Everyone does heel-side ones

[mostentertainment]

yea your right, any 540 makes me hard as long as it's smooth.

[basser1995]

eeeerrrrhhh wrong this is a toe-side 540

[banane540]

0:17 never seen a nicer way to film a trick... This is so perfectly beautiful

[Quiturjibbajabba1]

haha brian fox luks like the grim reaper at

0:05!! soz but he dus-i cud neva even attempt his tricks myself tho:p

tips anyone???!!!!!

[DirtyJerzy13]

maybe you could grow some balls?

[grenader16]

haha. well put

[Phelixdacatz]

how do you do it off your toes? I tried once and just ate shit... will it feel really weird when your first learning it?

[evanemac]

its gonna feel way diff from normal spinning just go up as if ur spinning bs then instead of actuly spinning bs just rotate ur body fs and u should spin don't rush the spin cuz u could clip ur tail off the jump if u try to spin fast

[cheesesteez]

wait i thought ur suppose to pop off heels for FS ?? why toes ?

[1party0man1]

cause these are 100% more steezee

[privatefiction1990]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh pleaaaaze never do them off the toes

[DANIS18GRRR]

no way, sooo ill

[skaterdeclan]

agreed, looks so much better off heels. toes looks tooooo awkward.

[g4ngb4ng4]

dude, whats up?

a fs rotation popped off from toes looks soo sick!

jp does that in such a stylish way. really love it!

tried it a couple of times but ate snow every single time

[skaterdeclan]

i've changed opinions, just got back from the snow and tried some fs 3s off toes, looked and felt so much better.

[KristophRandolph]

really? id' seriously be not pysched about eating shit off the lip like g4ngb4ng4 above is talking about. I just feel like i'd dig in. How did you prevent this? btw, go check out my buddy Scott Stevens, pioneer (original inventor? arguably.) of the amazing MJ slides for all you jib fans. Peace.

[skaterdeclan]

funny you mention MJ slides, because that's what i basically do off the lip. Scott Stevens oozes style man.

[banane540]

sorry if i didnt understand but are you guys talking about doing frontside 360 off toes? i mean, how is that possible? frontside is with the heels looking down and toes looking up, how can you do the opposite and not go backside?

[skaterdeclan]

look carefully at 0:16 seconds onwards, that's the key. difficult to get used to but looks soso sick.

[banane540]

Oh right man, thanks, i didnt even notice that damn, i cant even imagine doing this its crazy, im not even able to picture how to do it in my mind. at first i thought he was doing a "normal" 5, but he explains it after, sorry i didnt get it, english is my second language.

Hey you have any tips for backflips? cause i can imagine how to do it in my mind, like throw myself back, tuck the legs, keep looking back til you spot the landing and then opening up and nail it but is there anything else? thx

[skaterdeclan]

nah all good, your english is fine dude haha. tu hable espanol? for backflips, definitely learn on trampolines first. then learn on a clear day, on lots of powder, and definitely wear a helmet till you've got them down.

[banane540]

Thanks buddy =P And i did some spanish at school but i dont know more than three words haha. thanks for the tips, i have no idea where to find a trampoline though so ill just try in a lot of powder with a helmet on ;) Im gonna grow some balls and do it this year ( i hope!!! if there is powder at least ). thanks for your help, good riding ;)

[jalenWB]

wear a helmet everytime... if your smart

[grenaderider32]

theyre called unnatural front 3's dipshit!

[sNowb9OarDer63]

be nice, he never made fun of u, u should just chill out and go snowboarding

[snowsk8life]

both are good, Fs from toes is more difficult though

[iheartjibbin09]

alley oop? yer retarded alley oops are done in halpipes and q pipes shit heap goddamn

[reviewmasta]

i just learned these but not off the toes. STEEZY!

[crsk8andsno56]

God... I cant do TOE 5's..... so much steez

[mikeskillz]

soooooo nice i am just dazzled

[cantseejack]

That's such a great looking fs 5 off toes. One of the best I've ever seen. And fs off toes looks great.

[joshcarrier5]

nice man

[BluntedMF]

WOMG so much steeze. cant wait for tomorrow. first day boarding this year

[Olio89]

Toeside take offs on frontside spins look bunk.

[Modzilla32]

For sure! It's so much harder toes cuz you can't slide the 1st 90 like when you heel a 5. (or any rotation for that matter)

[chrisrpwnz0r]

Man I can't imagine doing front rotation going off the toes, but ah well, try it this season. Almost had them this summer at High Cascade but going off heels for a f/s 5.

[squaremuffin]

F/s lol

[fgidamarianne]

Maaan! That's hot! It's just so clean!

[specialblend47]

alley-oop front 5 actually, but yeah its sick

[burgerking0506]

bboy312 are fucking stupid

[skawt]

fs rotates off the toes look soooooo dope

[4gottenmemories]

um i'm sorry bboy but its a front 5

[Chuck2222]

are u stupid its a frontside 5

[bboy312]

Buddy...i hope you know .. this is a BACKSIDE 5 not a front!

[Maino88]

you're an idiot. it's a frontside 5. and it looks proper STEEZY. toe edge take off frontside rotations look wierd.

[brett18del]

im gonna try it off a 5 footer...

[psv0703]

can't wait till i try it out, anyone know the song name?

[hugo297]

sound like some sort of live version of "the owl" the band is I love you but I've chosen darkness
