cutbacks

[bluesnowcone]

whats the difference between a drop knee cut back, a round hous cut back a regular cutback, and a layback cutback?

drop knee cutback, you put your rear foot at the back of the board and lower you knee

round the house cutback, you go out on the sholder of the wave and cut back into the breaking part of the wave

regular cut back is when you just turn back to stay in right spot on the wave

layback, you lean backwards into the wave and bring the board round looks pretty hard to pull off

Ive always thought of a layback cutback as 'falling off while doing a roundhouse cutback but then magically getting away with it'

[Driftingalong]

For the layback you have to be going front side, so when you come around you "lay back" into the wave with your um back uh laying in the wave, then stand back up.

The roundhouse cutback is that fluid figure eight motion (sort of like two cutback one right after the other).

drop knee is more a longboarding term i think? a stylish powerful slow cutback with your back knee low to the board.

a roundhouse is a cutback followed by hitting the lip behind you (so a backside snap on a frontside wave etc.) think of a horizontal firure of eight shape.

i dunno about a lyback cutback, but a layback snap is a move done usually on a closing out section where you snap the board back hard and basically lay on your back on the wave behind you then the force of the wave pushes you back onto the board, those moves you see in videos where the rider seems to fall off and dissappear into the foam and then suddenly reappears on his feet.
Im still convinced that layback snaps are phyisically impossible to make and are done with some sort of camera trickery or voodoo

its extra extra sticky wax which keeps them on there board either that or magnets
