* Bonk - To hit an object with your board.
* Tail/Nose Block - while standing still, or on top of a box, balance on the tail of your board straight down while grabbing the nose end up by your chest. (vice versa = nose block). Similar to a "blunt stall" in skateboarding.
* Tail/Nose Tap Off - quickly tapping your tail or nose on the end of the rail/box as you are about to slide off of it
* Switch - The common term for riding fakie or the opposite direction to usual. All tricks completed switch are more difficult and score higher in competition
Combination tricks :
* Grabs and spins can be combined to create stylish combination tricks such as "Backside 180 Japan" or Frontside 360 Nosegrab"
* Performing a combination trick in switch will increase difficulty again such as "Switch Backside 540 Indy"
* Multiple combination tricks can be performed on rails such as "Switch 270 Boardslide to 270 nose-bonk out"
Various tweaks :
* One-Footed - If you remove one foot from a binding, (usually the back) it becomes a "One-Footed" Trick. This is sometimes also known as a "Boneless" trick.
* Experimental- Much like the one footed, the back leg is removed from the bindings while in the air, usually "tweaked".
* Tuck Knee - Refers to a term used for skateboarding when the knee of either leg is dropped down to touch the top of the board. When referring to snowboarding it means that the rider attempts to put his knee on the board by putting his/her knee underneath the torso and then pulling down to the board.
* "Flexy" - The term used in western ski areas for when an area of the board is strongly pulled to bend it into an arch.
