What this video teaches

A brief, street-focused tip that treats the front blunt as an extension of the frontside salad-grind position, emphasizing shoulders parallel to the ledge and leaning back toward the side you approached from so you don't fall off the far edge.

Key tips

  • Roll up to the ledge at an angle, not straight on
  • Keep your shoulders parallel to the ledge throughout the slide
  • Put essentially all your weight on your back foot
  • Spot your landing before you commit to the slide
  • Lean toward the side of the ledge you rolled in from, leaning the other way tips you off the back of the tail
  • Practice by first locking into a frontside salad grind stance, then shifting into the blunt position and slapping the tail down from there
