Replying to Pretzels definition

A pretzel is a spin out of a rail  spinning on the opposite direction of the way you actually got on the rail. It was at first a snowboarding manoeuvers and then we poached the name.
 In skiing, pretzels are a bit different since the  regular fs 270 out is a change of spinning direction.

basically if you want to do any kind of pretzels on skis, you have to spin at least 180 degree.
 so a siwtch up ( rotating 180 while sliding the rail) then psinning out the opposite direction is a pretzel spin out.

so  270 in spinning to the right and then spinning a 270 out to the left is a 270 in pretzel 270 out.

 right foot foward to fs switch up ( 180 to the right) tehn a 270 out to the left is a  fs switch up  pretzel 270 out.

450 on to the right  then 270 out to the left is 450 on pretzel 270

Ect

 switch on bs 270 out should not be  called a pretzel in the skiing  meaning of the words since there is no spins greater then 180 in it

hope that helps and theat we wont see any other threads about them in the future.
