We were lucky enough to shred Paris, France for a day on the tail end of our eurotrip, and while we were there I did a whole lot of tail blocks. This is a really fun trick that can be done on a variety of terrain and features, including flat ground, and in this video you'll find some tips to help you dial it in. The biggest things to remember that will make this trick easier for you, is to jump/ollie as high as the entire length of the tail of your snowboard, get the board as vertical as possible, and focus on balancing on the tail while letting tension build up and flex out the snowboard. The more vertical the board is the more balance and less pressure you will have in your hand, which makes the trick easier. I hope these tips help you learn the tail block, let us know any questions you have in the comments below. Thanks for watching!
