Regular - To ride with your left foot forward and right foot back.

Goofy - To ride with your right foot forward and left foot back. 

Switch - To ride with the opposite foot forward to your normal stance. 

Duck foot - To set your bindings so that both feet are pointing out.

Centre - To set your bindings centrally with the same distance between nose and tail. This makes it easier to ride switch. 

Setback - To set your bindings 'back' slightly so that there is more space between your front binding and the nose of your board. Good for freeriding. 

Freeriding - Backcountry riding in natural pow. 

Jibbing - When you ride on objects such as trees, benches and tables.
