Lets Get Going!!

Lets say that either you've crashed out half way down a slope, or alternatively that you've simply stopped half way for a breather and an admiration of the local scenery.  No need to unstrap as you'll be setting off in a mo...
Trouble is that you can't go because try as you may, you can't get back up and onto the board.

The reason for this may be because you're attempting to get up from a sitting position where your current centre of gravity is relatively far from where you need it to be (i.e. directly over the board).

[It's hard to get back on your board from this position]

No need to unstrap at this point.  Simply roll over onto your knees with the board on the downhill side of the slope.



In this position, it far easier to position your centre of gravity over the board, stand up and ride off and looks far more dignified in the process.

Now ride on and try not to fall off this time!
