Jib
Other
wise known as:
“I messed up my base
when I did that rock jib but damn it was cool, and we got
it on film.”
Jibbing means to snowboard on
obstacles that are not regularly intended for riding on.
This includes: picnic tables, garbage cans, rock walls, boulders,
and trees.
Jibbing is usually all about style
so make sure if you are going to take your board out of its
normal element you do it with enough style to make you smile.
