Tail manual/tail press

[BCKicker540]

does anyone else feel fairly intense pain in the calves and thighs when doing tail manuals or presses?

 

[invaderskier36]

tighten up your boots more

 

[BigJew]

Yeah, I don't know how people do it. I think my calves are too... meaty.

 

[HermioneGranger]

yeah i know exacatly what you mean!

 

[THEFUNK]

mine always hurt at the beging of the season but after doing butters alot you get ust to it... maby u need new boots

SpK Boots + the nice soft tail od Bluehouse MRs = I can ride with my noses a foot in the air for an entire run.

 

[jhackbeez]

i cant do tail presses, only nose presses, it saddens me...

 

[skiP.E.I.]

no. occasionally I flip over backwards though, cause my tails are short. that sometimes hurts depending on the surface you land on.

 

[GNARnia]

ya i always get pain from it. i think its what gives me the shin bang. cuz i can do nose butters alll day.

this is only with tail butters...presses on rails are fine. i got spks too so idno what the deal is. maybe jus cuz i lack defined calves hahah

 

[landonn]

get some spk boots. it will help a ton.

rockered skis, 100x easier and better looking. Not to mention you acctually have control while you're doing it

It only happens to me if I feel hard earlier in the day. But it might be your boots and how well they fit.
