One of the homies on the group rides calls me the orangutan because of my riding stance, which is basically drop real low whenever I maneuver a 180 especially a backside and if I ever see any kind of danger whether I think it might shake my wheel or not I take a very low stance. It's a comfort thing just like when I'm snowboarding too fast I'll shrink my body to be a little smaller I guess

Or maybe we're already on the same page, in which case yea it definitely wouldn't get more pleasant with age, even if the technique is still great.

This is definitely my favorite episode. Nice work! My "attack stance" is closest to Jake's. An S shape allows a lower stance which keeps your weight closer to the angle needed to recover. I do use the C shape when I'm relaxed or alternating the muscles I'm working. You could also argue that the higher center of gravity allows for more deweight/recovery time. C shape also holds more potential energy to shift hips back and having the shoulders back allows for more room to move your weight further back. When I'm riding on the edge in "attack position", I keep my hips closer to the wheel. I angle my shoulders, hips and rear knee at a 45° angle so I can buckle my rear knee and drop my torso behind the wheel for a quick recovery. When I'm in this position I can use my hips for hard acceleration or my shoulders and arms for more of a precise acceleration. Shoulders and arms can be retracted quickly and coupled with buckling the rear knee. Arms can provide an upward force, extending recovery time when overtorquing. Great work guys! The TFL team constantly progresses the sport and culture for our community and I couldn't be more grateful!

It's really nice to see the different perspectives of the best floaters in the game! I'd love to see a future episode talking more about the proper way to roll out of a nose dive. ➖☠️➖🤙🤙

Then I just wear separate gloves and put the wrist guards on top of them.

Appreciate the insight. But I still feel like there’s got to be a way to more gradually have the board slow vs the motor cutting out and creating a nose dive situation. Don’t get me wrong…I love the board and ride. Just this 1 big issue I wish could be addressed. Avid snowboarder 🏂 so did a tuck and roll on n a nosedive a had (1st week of owning board). Lesson learned…shoulder to concrete and rolled but still left some scars. 26mph…couldn’t run it out at 215lbs. Just my .02 cents.

Ok, so we all have different backgrounds, body types, strengths and weaknesses etc. So it's good to see these three riding styles but I think the body does what is most natural to the rider. What muscles are naturally dominant in that human. I'm more of the type that wants to know what body position is going to fuck my back up or make my hips totally unaligned. What will screw my spine up? How do these athletes balance the pain that comes with the body being pulled out of alignment? I try to ride switch sometimes to counter balance it all but I suck at riding switch and it's less fun. Is there an ideal body type for cruising vs trails?

Jake Leary's position is the most scientifically optimal IMO. Human body's COG (Center Of Gravity) is just below the navel. Eastern medicine/martial arts refers to this as the dantien(Chinese)/danjun(Korean)/tanden(Japanese). This is the reason most protective railings are specified to be higher than the navel of most people so people don't inadvertently go over. The perspectives where the hips are forward while the shoulders are back are counterweight systems that are more advanced and complex. They aren't wrong but is not simple enough for me.

Leary isnt wrong but he is talking for his 120lb frame … the heavier /taller you are the shoulders are far more imp. Like bohdi said. I am 6’4 260ibbs and would NEVER RIDE LIKE LEARY said. Leary would agree if he was a larger person. I have tried every position and the most agreeable to me is keeping the shoulders loose but centers and use your legs knees to hips forward .. shoulder must have to be center over the wheel in a fluid pos. If shoulders go forward at 250+ibs u are screwed leary … My point is YOU , YOURSELF IS THE BEST GUIDE ON HOW TO RIDE … IF U HAVE RODE ONE OF THESE FOR OVER T500 TO 1000 MILES U ARE THE PRO.
