can someone please tell me, what in the hell does

'butter'

and

'landing backseat'

mean????

These terms used soo much, ive got like 12 different random guesses about all of them...

 
Butter is when before you hit the rail you either slip around from switch to forward or forward to switch. you know ?? Backseat is when you land on your heels or tails

i don't wanna start another huuuuge argument like always, but i was told butter is when you do that on your tips or tails, and not just sliding around...not that it makes much of a difference at all

-dan-
 
thtas wat i was told too

As i awoke this evening with the smell of wood smoke clinging

Like a gentle cobweb hanging upon a painted tepee

Oh i went to see my chieftain with my warlance and my woman

For he told us that the yellow moon would very soon be leaving

This i can't believe i said, i can't believe our warlord's dead

Oh he would not leave the chosen ones to the buzzards and the soldiers guns

 
Butter is when you put weight on your tips or tails, flexing your skis until the opposite end becomes unweighted and typically off the snow and you rotate at the same time to switch or forward, usually off a kicker onto a rail or off a jump.

Basically, its a manual (like skateboarding) and a revert simultaneously.

'landing backseat' is an expression for when you land a jump leaning back, typically out of control.

Butter is not just a revert.

'Nature does nothing uselessly.' -Aristotle
 
yeah...like jp's butter 540 dropping into a line in 1242...he put his weight on his tail and started his rotation before actually being in the air, then he finished it in the air and stomped it.

Jeepers Creepers, where'd you get the neat sneakers?!?!

hehehe giggle giggle giggle


 
and butter doesnt neciserally mean coming up to a rail, you can butter off a jump or just on the snow
