Saw Chris Benchetlers edit. Those nose butter 3's look so fun. Do you need rocker to do them?? I want to learn.

They're easiest with ample speed, light snow, and rocker. But they aren't hard without those either, you just have to commit.

Impossible.

Agreeing with me, a mogul skier, is physically impossible.

visualize and commit 100%.  Just keep on trying different thougs out until you find a way that works.

it is way easier than a normal butter, just pop, do a 180, then press to foreward the first time, then just work on smoothing them out.

haha word, I remember learning these with collins at windells, he said the exact same thing. Pop a 1, lean it out, come around and face forward, smooth it out.

sometimes bending your knees a bit to get the tips under your weight helps

Yes, definitely that. Then again I have Elizabeths so nose butters are stupidly easy.

Ha same. It's one reasons I bought the ski actually. If you guys haven't learned butters yet your really should. That along with taps and shiftys are some of the most fun tricks you can do.

Basically what everyone else has been saying.. (for leftside) you sorta pop a 180 (or a little more) and land with your weight over your nose.. then you lean to the right a bit and look over your left shoulder and it just slashes round.. its really hard to describe so i hope that makes sense.

This sounds right; not that I can do nose butters, but it makes sense

yep, like it's been told, pop, 180 (little bit corked, leaning back, uphill) land on your tips, keep in the flow of the rotation, start the revert, keep pressing uphill untill your tails catch , then lean back onto your tails and ride away afterbangin,

in the last part from pressing on your nose to reverting, bending/pulling up your knees and letting your tail slide underneath your ass is the way to go... kinda hard to explain, but just look how the nimbus guys do em, they're "pretty good" at it ...

so it's basically the same as on the groomers just requires a but more finesse and control...

visualize then do it is all you need to know for any thing on skis
