When I do true tails i dont cross but I think it looks cool if you get a nice slow 3 going and you do a true tail

i like it more with slow 180's for true tails(crossed)
and on bigger spins i find other grabs lend more style

I think like, if i do a Bio or a Cork it is more stylish to grab a standard tail (crossed)

but yeah, in smaller rotations without any inverts, its more stylish to do truetails uncrossed!

True Tails and Blunts arnt tricks, when you do a tail grab its called a tail grab and a real tail grab is when you grab the end of the ski (which is the tail) anything in between the binding and before where the tail curve's up is nothing really. Keep skiing semi-cool and just call it Tail.

I susually just call them tail grabs. Calling them blunts is kindof silly but I do it from time to time just cause it sounds ridiculous

Where did you get your clothes, the toilet store?

i think uncrossed is sick, and harder, but they can both look really good

whats the dif between blunts and true tails anyway. i thought anything that grabbed back there was a tail grab, and a true tail was when you grabbed the extreme end of it.
