  1. Try this.  Lol I think i might be way off of what your asking but I'll put it down anyways.

    Thats a pretty good website, if thats what your looking for.  But it doesnt have a few words which is kinda dumb, so here some are lol.

    Pow - Powder

    Biff - Fall

    Eat/Ate s**+* - Fell hard

    Kissed the Rail - fell on a box/rale and hit his face on it

    Huck - Jump off a cliff

    Air - When your feet leave the ground.

    Bomb/Bombing/Hauling A** - going really fast down the hill

    Bono - Run into a tree

    Bumps - Moguls

    Chatter - Noise your edge makes when they're not catching right in icy snow

    Kicker - Small, usually rider-made, jump

    Yard Sale - Losing all your gear when you fall


  2. boost = getting lots of air

    hit = go off of

    hits= jumps

    booter = man made jump, a kicker, kicks you out

    roller = not normally man made, a roll in the terrain that, if hit right, becomes a hit.

    take off = the approach to a "hit"

    throwing down = a really good day of riding, boosting off of fat hits

    sketchy = not very good, usually decribing a hit, or someones trick/riding

    knuck knuck = not making it to the landing of a "hit", usually because the rider did not properly "boost"

    shred = snowboarding

    scorpion = catching toe edge so hard your legs arc over your back (like a scorpions tail)

    landing gears = putting your legs down at the right time after boosting a hit

    bomb = to ride as fast as you possibly can

  3. gnar  -   ( nasty gnarly crazy )

    Steez  -  ( laid back style crazyness gangsta tricks super slow laid back crazy sweet ganrly style)

    Pow pow num nums..  - ( pow)

    Death cookies -  ( chunks of ice on the slopes)

    Dump-  Crash

    I straight edged it.   --    I went straight at the --------- without speed checking

    bomb,       ---   riding fast

    huck-----    spinning or jumping without care  jumping as high and as hard as possible
