Hi,

The easiest one is a 50/50 grind.

STEP 1: Look for a good place to grind. Find a Snowboarding Rail that is not too high so you will be able to execute an Ollie with ease.

STEP 2: Approach is very crucial in doing a 50/50 Grind, as this will ensure that your board will stay flat and straight while on the rail. Ride down the rail, keeping speed under control.

STEP 3: Have a good take-off so you will stay balanced and in control. Crouch slightly and make a small Ollie to reach the rail, with your board completely on its surface.

STEP 4: Simply grind like you would if you are just on snow. Keep your board parallel to the Snowboarding Rail. Maintain your balance and just go with the grind.

STEP 5: To get off, make a small Ollie as you reach the end of the rail. Have perfect timing to avoid an early exit.

STEP 6: Land with both feet and then ride away.

prkswllflwr is right, thats a really easy trick. But whats even easier is doing that on a box…its almost easier than riding…you pretty much just ride up to hte box and ride down it…it may be kinked or flat(don’t try a C-box). Its not hard at all. Also, you may just want to try a 180..you don’t even need a jump to do it…I think 180s are pretty much self explanitory, goodluck!
