Hand positions for turns, dafuq? This is why I am not good at teaching my son how to snowboard since I am like, WATCH, DO.you have more body awareness/feel - i had to do drills with an instructor to get the heal side working, break it down, and build it up.
got this funny habit when initiating a turn. i roll my lead hand thumb-up or down to start the sequence. perhaps the minimalist version of
pointing the hand/arm and looking where you want the board to go (day 1, lesson 2 after how to stand up?)
Regular = left foot forward, comes from board stance, if related to bike stance for things like bmx, where you can do grinds and coping stuff in regular and "switch"
Goofy, Right Foot Forward
Switch, Your opposite stance, big deal in skating when you can ride switch and people can't tell the difference from your regular stance. It isn't as apparent in snowboarding because of lack of flip tricks, but it is still the ultimate to be able to do all tricks both ways.
Nollie, your normal stance, but using your nose to start a trick / ollie.
Fakie, your normal stance, going backwards, using your tail to start a trick / ollie.
Stance-less is the ultimate, however there are very few people that you truly cant tell which was is normal.
It relates to mtb'ing and cornering, switchbacks. And I nollie all the time on my mtb.Got it - related to snowboarding and skating, neither of which I will ever do, so no relevance.

It was in my previous postI was gonna ask what a "nollie" is but sure it's something else I'll never do
