A blunt nose slide is a variation of the Wheelie but with an interesting twist. A blunt nose slide is really a Wheelie done within the front and side of the snowboard. Doing the same trick within the rear of the snowboard is a switch-stance blunt nose slide.

The two key elements to this trick are the wheelie and also the slide. You must be very proficient at both prior to trying them together. A slide is fairly simple to get the hang of and mostly likely is how you first learnt to stop on your snowboard. As you are riding down a gentle slope, turn to traverse the slope in such a way that your heels are towards to slope. As you make the turn lean back towards the slope to make the heel edge of your snowboard dig into the slope.

A wheelie has a lot to do with the balance and control of your snowboard. The easiest wheelie to do is within the tail of your snowboard. Begin by riding down a gentle slope, relax your rear leg slightly and stiffen you front leg. Lean backwards and raise your front leg up in to the air in order to raise the tip of the snowboard off the ground.

Now we put these two elements together. Traverse a gentle slope using the heel side of the snowboard biting into the slope a bit. This will help to stabilize you for the next part. Begin to put your weight on your front leg and then pull your rear leg up. This action will leave you riding within the tip and edge of your snowboard and looking truly cool.

As you can imagine practice and control may be the crucial to a blunt nose slide. Make sure you are very great at wheelies and slides before trying the two elements together. Another thing to think about may be the quality of your snowboard. Wheelies are known to cause weak and damaged snowboards to break due towards the extra strain put on the snowboard. If you have any question about yours you may wish to practice on a rental snowboard.
