front board

A front board is a trick in skateboarding where a skater approaches a rail frontside and does a boardslide so that they are in essence sliding backwards.

Front boards are one of the most basic handrail tricks in skateboarding, and there is at least one in every skateboarding video. For more information about front boards, visit your local skate shop.

Taylor is really good at front boards. He can land them every try. He even did a front board down a 9 stair rail.
