am i correct when i say that ski slide is sliding a jib straight and a 50/50 is when you hop 90 on and slide it sideways?

i just need some proof because my friends are retards.

No. You are the retard. A 50/50 is when you don't spin to get on it. (Entire ski is on the rail)

ski slide is one ski straight on the other hanging off the side of the box.

50/50 is straight on, both skis on the box.

nugget is a switch ski slide.

there is no room for debate

good to have that cleared up.

A 5050 should be one ski on because it is the easiest name and no one actually hits anything two skis on.
