^true...basically. it's exactly like skateboarding, if you come at the rail on your heel side, anything you do is backside. (back lip, back board, etc.) if you come at it on your toe side, it's all frontside...doesn't matter which way you're facing going down the hill. snow boarding is kinda weird though because most people go straight onto the rail it seems. then it's like 'lebro' said.
