How many rail tricks do you know on a snowboard?
Time:2025-08-07 Views:

Wondering how to ride park features like rails and boxes?

Let’s break down 5 classic and practical jib tricks — from beginner to advanced — to help you build confidence and unlock your unique riding style.

1. 50-50

The ultimate beginner trick. Ride straight onto the feature with your board parallel to it. Both edges stay balanced over the rail or box.

Start with wide boxes to build confidence.

Stable, safe, and the best way to start learning park riding.

2. Boardslide

Turn your board sideways across the rail or box — with the feature sliding between your feet.

Great sliding feel, satisfying to land, and full of style.

Tip: Keep your eyes forward, stay centered, and align your shoulders with your board to avoid twisting.

3. Lipslide

A step up from the boardslide. In this trick, you pop your back foot over the rail before sliding.

It looks subtle but demands better timing and technique.

Recommended after you’ve got your ollies and boardslides dialed in.

4. Nose Slide / Tail Slide

Only your board nose or tail touches the feature — creating a stylish pressed look on the rail or box.

Requires strong board control and weight shifting skills.

Start with wide boxes, then work your way up to rails.

5. Bluntslide / Pretzel Out

Time for the advanced moves!

Bluntslide: Pop farther and land with your nose or tail pressed to the edge of the feature.

Pretzel Out: Spin opposite your entry direction when exiting the rail — a technical and stylish way to end a slide.

A perfect mix of tech and steeze — a must-have in every advanced rider’s trick bag!

Final Thoughts:

Rail and box tricks aren't just for showing off — they’re how you express style on your snowboard.

Start with the basics like 50-50, progress one step at a time, and let your creativity shine on every feature!
