Backside

You can do almost every trick backside, but the easiest of them all is the plain old backside grind. This is only just a little more difficult than the frontside grind, since you can't see the obstacle you're grinding the same way you can when you're frontside grinding.

When you approach the obstacle, it is even more important that you spot the place where you want to land. Practise jumping up and down on steps or something like that first, and be sure that you have it every single time. As I mentioned before, you can do a lot of tricks backside, - just to mention a few: Backside unity, royale, fahrvergnugen, backslide, and fahrvergnugen.

When you backside grind, you have to remember, that you need to approach the obstacle from the other direction to get the same position.
