MASTER A SNOWBOARD BACK SIDE TURN with Xavier De Le Rue | How To XV 

Excellent use of sound effects in this episode!

The First Video who Shows the Real key Mooves . Great Job, txs

Now I understand why I often fall over when trying to carve on my heelside. Thanks for this. Loving your video's, keep them coming!

Much thanks again Monsieur De Le Rue! Tucking the elbow in is a great fine tune point.

really help for my carving. Initiation with the weight forward is the key point

3:22 this was my mistake for years. In many places they teach this with your hips totally aligned with your board, which is a fatal error (gorilla style everywhere). If you rotate a little your hip, and then bend your knees like "sitting down" in a chair (kind of), that helps a lot.

the movement of the legs is completely different from how they taught me, with a center stance. you move much better with a smoother weight transition from froont foot to back foot. Thank you, as usual

Can’t wait to try these ideas. Always feel too loose/chattery on heel-side, especially on the bumps.

When I first tried this, I didn't commit to it enough. Also once I increased speed it started to flow. Really helped. Thanks great vid.

THE best video about backside turn.

Still working on getting it better. Thanks for the tips.

Xavier thank you! Great tips, some were above my level but still very clear and well explained. Keep ‘em coming!!!

Man, I like your stamina!!

Thank you man! Now I understand why I always loose my edge... it's not that the edge isn't sharp. It's my technique not being sharp ;))

An episode about the layers in all conditions would be a nice one! Keep up the good job!

Xavier, you are just amazing bro!!! I hope i will have a chance to shred with you one day... that would be such an honor!!!

Subscribed, excited to see where I can take my riding with a lil help from someone who knows what they’re talking about.

Thank you, great demonstration from the boss.🙏🏽🙏🏽

Master class

Love Xavier

Great explanation. Thank you very much

Wow, very useful tips! Driving your butt toward the edge of the board opened my eyes. Quick question, do you squeeze your glute throw out the turn? To stabilize the hip?

Excellent video, best teaching I’ve seen on you tube. Would you be kind enough and tell me the angle setup for both bindings you have in this video?

Super tuto Xavier!!! Whaou!

That's a great video. It will be my 3d season, but I have about 25-30 days on the snow. I'm still unstable on my heelside turn and that's why I'm sooo disappointed with myself. I've notice I'm opening and turning my upper body part too much and it's changing the direction of the board and I find myself horizontal on the slope, almost for side slip position. But trying to fix it it's difficult. I just can't feel it. Will play this video over and over again till my brain absorbs the information :)) All my friends who started snowboarding after me are now advanced and I'm still struggling and can't handle stiff terains and that sucks. Nobody wants to ride with me anymore:) But I won't quit. Great season and lot of snow to All! 💓

Excellente!!!!

Merci man I just figired out my mistake

Merci super video 👌🏻

When I was learning how to ride, 32 years ago, I had such a hard time with heelside turning. Got it figured out now though ~ faithandaction.net.

HOW TO XV Episode 1: How to turn Episode 2: How to send it off a 30' cliff onto ice

Hello, what stance do you use?:)

How to grab your board in back side turn?

heel slide turning is harder? I find myself, as a beginner relying on heel slide everything, when I wish to learn to toe slide anything, i feel its very easy for me to catch an edge and face plant

I can't heelside carve to save my life! My toe side just comes naturally. 20 days on mountain so far, trying to heelside carve everyday. Never able to do it. I'm starting to wonder if it is my gear's problem. But I heard people can ride on any set up as long as they're not out of ordinary. :(

At 1:07 and 2:01, it appears that the weight is more on the back foot rather than centered. The back leg also looks like it is more bent with knee forward while the front leg is more straight. Can anyone explain this?

anyone know the song ?

Heavy turns

Please explain why this is a backside turn and not frontside.

Please Xavier, all of you people, which model of these TNF pants it is? Thx

not easy. but i will try

song name 2:10 please

Interesting, this would be called a front side turn in surfing.

very helpful! please don't lose your accent :)

Basically want a boned out indy grab position without the grab

A Very, SIMPLE 'Fix' to 80% of Riders, is to use LESS Forwards-Lean upon the Front Binding than the Rear, by, oh 7", or two clicks of the high-back angle-block at the Rear of MOST bindings. I've been saying such for over 3 decades now, but it's "NEWS" now.. "PSR"

All my Life thinking this was frontside

I hate to sound like a know-it-all but “edge” is definitely not “bordo” in Italian. It’s “lamina”! Anybody who has ever skied would know the Italian term. “Forward lean” doesn’t mean “to move your weight forward”, as the current translation suggests, but rather “to add inclination to the front spoiler”. A major difference.

3:25 queen is dead, say hello is not bad idea, maybe she is boring there

I bought a collapsible cup. Let's all avoid plastic cups.

сука песню скажите на 2.10. заебался искать ..

What level instructor are you? I can tell you're at least a level 1 from how you explained that.

I want to hear your tips/tricks for skating on one foot for flat sections

What is the song at 2:11? I’ve tried searching the lyrics but can’t find it :(
