Sweat The Technique: The Root Cause of Ugly (Free) Riding?

Maybe the allure of snowboarding isn't in the turn anymore, but in the trick? 

 

I think for many that's definitely the case, both are valid avenues to follow.  My hope for the future is that we will start to see them coexist in riders and valued equally, so we'll see big hits off kickers interlinked with majestic carving.

...  When I get a bigger house I would love to line the walls with split boards, everything I used to ride and maybe a Burton Backhill.  

The Pile-Driver appears to be a throw back to that. I will certainly try one, although I did not like the aesthetic of the original and probably won't like this one either.

 

"Tricks" were very popular in the 1970s, I believe, for skiers at least. What goes around comes around.
