Frontside boardslide uses a toeside approach with the nose coming over the feature first, leaving your back facing the line during the slide.
Approach controlled, rotate the nose across, land flat on the base, and keep the handle close. Stay stacked until you have a clean exit.
Progression note: build from 50-50s and basic boardslides on boxes before taking it to rails.
