Nose Press

Nose press is a feature slide with pressure shifted to the front foot so the tail gets light while the nose stays controlled.

Enter stable, then move hips over the front binding instead of leaning your chest forward. Keep the handle low and shoulders aligned with the board.

Progression note: learn centered 50-50s first. Press only after the feature feels stable under both feet.
