Stop calling everything a pretzel

Deranged · 2008-02-09 16:19:01

Seriously people need to stop calling everything a freaking pretzel. For example a regular 90 on, frontside 270 out is not a pretzel. Its a frontside 270 out. I keep hearing people say "Nice pretzel, or all I can do is pretzel" thus leading me to be confused until I figure out they are not talking about the real definition of a pretzel. For something to be a pretzel you have to spin more than 90 degrees in both rotations. Get it right kids.

for a pretz, you have to spin 180 degrees or more, then spin the other way 180 degrees or more

its cause thats a pretzel in snowboarding. because they dont have 4 edges to control spinning 270 on 270 off pretzel etc.

so a fs noseslide to 270 landing switch is a pretzel.

on skis, that shit is way easier so we have the spinning over 270 rule

A pretzel on skis requires at least 540 degrees of rotation.

Thats lame, pretzle just means opposite 270, whether it be out of a 270 on or just a rail slide. Just like danish means same side 270.

I am not going to waste my life reading this pointless and rediculouse thread... but who the fuck cares. My advice to you is to take the dildo out of your vagina and lighten up. It's all just a way of defining this or that trick. for example: I used to say, uphill switch up until someone laughed at me and said "you mean backside." I was young then but really, who cares. We're here to ski, and skiing is fun but it isn't if you get anal about what kids call different tricks. just have fun

You are wrong. If you 90 on, do a switch up the same direction, press the gas, and then spin a 270 out in the other direction, then you did a pretzel.

When do gapers try rails? More importantly, when do gapers actually make it to the end of a rail? I mean, you're right, switch off is definitely not a pretzel and that kid is straight wrong but I am curious...
