Slappy Morning

Slappy Morning

I‘m going to go out on a limb and say that the frontside carve grind that I‘m more confident with now also helped unlocking frontside slappies.

A few other things I‘ve paid attention to today, that helped me to finally land a slappy grind:

  • Shoulder position and movement: as with so many other tricks, your board goes where your should goes. Making sure the forward shoulder guides the motion of the frontside turn onto the curb helped a lot.
  • Speed: not being afraid riding faster into the curb
  • Angle: riding straight into the curb is easier, than coming into it from an angle

However, landing may first slappy is a big milestone, having tried them countless times!

Happy Slappy!
