awesome and builds your skills for more advanced jib tricks.

The key warm-up trick is a Frontside Tail Butter coming out switch, which

we've covered in the Basics Of Buttering series. For the Tail Slide 270, we're

basically gonna do the exact same trick but you're gonna add another 180 as you

pop out to land back in your regular direction. The technique you learn for

Counter Rotated 360s is gonna come in handy here for spinning a very quick

Frontside 270 out of this butter. With a training board and Balance Bar you can

simulate the movement. Jump into a Frontside Tail Slide, continue to rotate,

your upper body around when your upper body reaches its max wound up position,

you can snap your lower body into action with a counter rotated 270. It's

the exact same while buttering. Nollie into a tail butter, let your upper body

continue to rotate, when you reach a maximum wound up position, add a small

Ollie and counter rotate the 270 out. Don't be afraid to let your board butter

for a bit longer during the trick. Doing this means you may only have to 180 out,

which will be even easier as you're learning. It's the same trick and the

same movement with just a slight variation. While doing any buttering

trick you need to keep a little pressure on your uphill edge, which in this case

is your heel edge, otherwise it'll catch in the snow. A Tail Slide 270 uses

the exact same movement whether they're done on the snow or on a box. Except for when

jibbing, you need to keep your base dead flat with the feature or you'll

slide out and slam.
