Posted: Sep 26, 2005 5:27 pm Post subject: Wakeboard to Snowboard tricks |
|
|
Ive been wakeboarding and snowboarding for about the same amount of time but I wakeboard a LOT more. I only get to snowboard like 3-5 times a year. I mainly end up cruising the runs but this year I want to do some more terrain park.
I was wondering how wakeboarding tricks compared to snowboarding. Right now I can only do grabs on a snowboard. I can do grabs, 180s, 360s, and almost frontrolls on a wakeboard. My question is how do they relate in difficulty and in progression. (In wakeboarding you usually go grabs, HS 180, TS 180, HS 360, Backroll, etc. How does it go with snowboarding?) What are some good tricks for me to try on the snow this year? Is a 360 harder on snow than water?
TIA |

It's not very similar. However, spins and a tantrum can be easily converted to snow. Beware, you will get injured taking snow tricks really big. The reason I say this is that you're at the mercy of whoever made the hits. If the tabletop isn't what you're used to, you may hit it like you would hit a consistent wake, and end up 15 ft. up and 10 ft out (I did this and blew an ACL), or you may completely overshoot a landing (How I broke my MCL). Just be careful. _________________ Steal My Book
