To pull off a tasty backside noseslide you need to be more than comfortable with a frontside boardslide. Begin by dropping into the feature like your going for a backside boardslide, but line yourself up just slightly unparallel to the box. Unless your riding goofy, line yourself up about 6 inches to the right of the box, if your goofy than just go to the left!
The tecnique is basically the same as the backside boardslide, but because of your unparallel entrance, your going to really need to hold your weight towards your nose, otherwise you will slide right off the edge. Once again, the key is commitment. Dont be afraid to really push your bodyweight onto your front foot.
For a clean finish, try the trick with a smooth slow spin and land it fakie. A nice long and smooth noseslide is a great addition to any riding style.
