What does it mean when you do something cab? I havnt heard it associated with skis except for a few times. But snowboarders refer to it all the time. Example: the X games commentator said someone(i forgot their name) did a cab misty 7 in prelims.

Am I just rambling? did anyone understand this post?

Steve Caballero Bud. In skiing, they call, for example, a fakie 5 a cab 5. It is hitting something switch on a snowboard or skateboard and spinning.

i remeber in one of the early freeze they called a 180 mute a mute cab or something...so i guess they have used it for skiing. i think it should be used more...i like the sound of it although it doesnt matter
