snowboard tricks

Grabs, spins, flips

Snowboard tricks are acrobatic maneuvers performed while snowboarding, typically in terrain parks, halfpipes, or backcountry features.

Tricks range from basic grabs and spins to complex combinations involving flips and rotations: She landed a backside 720.

Named tricks often honor their originators or describe the motion: McTwist, method grab, cork.

Progression through increasingly difficult tricks defines competitive and freestyle snowboarding culture.
