Snakeboarder.com - Trick Tips

Snakeboarding is easy to learn. Once you've mastered the basics you have quick steering and total control in any direction. Snakeboarding is such a new way to move that it may appear to be difficult - but, with a little instruction, most people get the motion in half an hour. The key advantage of the Snakeboard is that riders can generate a forward motion, even uphill, from a standstill position without their feet ever touching the ground. The Snakeboard's steerability makes it easy to maneuver and fun to ride.

-Place feet outward on each footplate.
-Turn toes in. Turn toes out.
-Start with your toes in and both of your arms to one side of your body.
-Turn your toes out and swing your arms in the direction you want to move.
-Turn your toes in and swing both arms back to position #4
-Repeat steps #4-6 until you have achieved a fluid forward movement.

Remember... Keep your knees slightly bent. Your upper body and toes must work together. Lean forward when your toes are together and back when your heels are together.
