Otto: Showboarding is not just a sport ... it's a lifestyle ... and a language ... and a way to slide down a hill. But if you don't savvy the board lingo, you could get lost in more ways than one. Here's an example:

Dolph Shapiro: Hey, dude! This tight hill has like a total bulletproof S-rail coming up. Better duckfoot that phat board, or you'll be doing a sick fakie hip!

Kearney Zzyzwicz: [quizzically, having no idea what Dolph just said] Huh?

Otto: Don't let this happen to you. Here's what should've happened.
