What this video teaches
Silas Baxter-Neal gives a quick, focused breakdown of backside nose blunt slides on a ledge, covering exact foot placement and the shoulder-turn timing that locks the board in. Short trick-tip format that also lists natural follow-up variations once the basic backside nose blunt feels comfortable.
Key tips
- Approach the ledge backside with your front foot angled slightly forward, positioned a little below the bolts, to get good pop out of your ollie
- Hang your back foot slightly off the tail with your toe on the inside, so you can snap and use your toe to help turn the board in
- Visualize your momentum traveling straight along the ledge, then ollie straight up rather than turning early
- Once you reach the top of your ollie, turn your shoulders and push with your toe to lock the board into the nose blunt
- Slide for as long as you want, then straighten your shoulders and push your front foot out to land back on all four wheels
- Once the basic backside nose blunt feels comfortable, progress into variations like kickflip in, switch, half-cab in, or down ledges, stairs, and hubbas
