After inventing more tricks than most riders will ever learn, Scott Stevens has become one of snowboarding’s most creative talents. The lion’s share of his output tends to involve some unstrapping; sometimes the front foot, sometimes both. He’s forever pushing the boat out with fastplants and tree taps, and there are fine examples of both to be found in 2010’s Right Brain, Left Brain (above). Then there’s his last shot in Stack Footy, where he unstraps mid-frontflip, kicking out to glory off the next hit.
