Frontside

This is the first trick you should learn, and it's also the most basic trick as well.

You can do this at any speed, so if you're learning, approach the rail/curb at a slow speed. When you're near the rail/curb, keep your eyes on the obstacle on a specific spot, jump while turning 90 degrees in the air, and land on the obstacle in between the two middle wheels of your skates. If you do not spread your legs, your momentum will sweep you, and you will fall. It is much easier to land with your legs apart.

When you're grinding the rail, try to keep your balance in the middle, and above it, if it is a rail. When grinding curbs, you might have to grind at a 45 degree angle to the curb!
