"Hi, I am Matt from Outspokin' Bicycle and Sport, and we are here up at Mount Sunapee today to show you how to correctly side slide, or snow plow, on your snowboard. And what you are going to want to do, you know obviously you are going to be in your snowboard, but the correct feet position and the correct way to go down the hill would be toes pointing down, facing straight down the hill. And what you are going to want to do is you are going to want to keep almost a hundred percent of your pressure on your heels, so you are going to be kind of picking your toes up, and just kind of forcing your heels down on the edge. And what that is going to do is it is going to drive the edge down, and slowly slow you down, and help you keep control of the snowboard while it is going down. And what you want to do is you want to keep even pressure over both feet, so you are not going either way, sliding down like that. You want to keep fifty-fifty pressure between each feet, and just slowly sliding down with a consistent pressure on each foot. And always keeping your toes up. You know, if you dig your toes in, that is when you go forward, and you know, you get the bruises and all that stuff that you do not want after a good day of riding. And that is basically how you, the correct stance and weight distribution to do a correct side slide down the mountain."
