Carve rodeo

 I watched the Clown School "Gang!" edit just now, and noticed how ( I think) Hornbeck did a carve rodeo.  I forget exactly where though, but I thought it was really cool.  The spin was opposite that of the carve (so not at all similar to a cork).  Has anyone else tried these or have any thoughts on it?

carving left when spinning right and vice versa is the natural way to spin when setting rodeos and bios.
try to imaging setting those tricks with a same-direction carve. it would be ridiculous

Not sure about that.

For me, carving left and spinning left, you just have to fall forward, and presto, there is a rodeo set.

youre right, a rightside misty will make you roll over your right shoulder and a rodeo will make you roll under it.   In a lot of cases the way you'll come around the roll will be the same tho.

watch any snowboarder do a rodeo, always opposite edge. Most skiers seem to just do the old train tracks off the jump jock stance on their rodeos, pollard always had that carve tho

yea i saw that too, they do that to help spring them into the trick. its like squatting down before you try to jump really high, if that makes any sense
