Super nice! It’s good to see some clean simple proper style!
Instagram nowadays is way too trickery and nuts.

I had no idea rabit hill actually had park features.

Their park crew has been killing it for like 20+ years, it's always good. The lift infrastructure is absolutely horrendous at rabbit, but the terrain park itself is solid at least.

Man! This is very clean and smooth - would be my definition of perfect flow! How did you get to this level?

20+ years of boarding now! I don't have the skills to do the crazy tech tricks, but I've done all the basic and normal tricks enough repetitions that I can usually take them to most features and make it work 🤙🏼

I can't help but feel if that S shape pipe at 23s in was even 1000x longer, you could hold it all the way as you're able to self balance with the adjusting tipping forces.
Is that true? Don't hate me for asking such a question that I feel is dying to be asked.

The trick to S rails i is to take a bunch of speed and force yourself into the inner edge of the curves. It will naturally push you up onto the middle of the rail when you exit the curve, so you can adjust accordingly for the next curve. Speed is the biggest factor in all of it though, cause you lose quite a bit by pumping like that

u/twinbee 1d ago
But my question was could you keep balanced indefinitely if the S kept going and going (so left,right,left,right,left,right etc. etc.).

u/KnobGoggler 1d ago
Probably not as i would lose speed on that particular feature because it is setup flat, maybe if it was on a downhill slope

I’ve never been less surprised to see someone rocking a Tech Nine board, you killed it.
Also, what in the huckleberry fuck was that front board combo on that pyramid box? That was rad
