Snowboard Tip of the Day: Pipe Stance
Written By: dougfagel

Progressing your Half Pipe Riding: [TUBE]LQvg_NULThg[/TUBE] By correcting your stance you can get into sooner and progress your skills quicker in any Half Pipe. The key to a good stance for pipe riding is flexed knees with your knees slightly rolled out. Your upper body and head should be up to allow for better balancing. Your spine should be perpendicular to the terrain "_|_" whether you are on flat ground or on the vertical wall of the pipe.

Omitson - Pipe is so tough if you want to do it right. The tips are great but pretty hard to put into actual movement.
