Best Answer

fait un écart (push to the side)

or: 'faute de carre'

the 'carre' (fem.) is the metallic edge on each side of the sole of the snowboard. There is a heelside 'carre', and a toeside one. The names used in French are 'backside carre' and 'frontside carre'.

Faute de carre

That's when an edge (carre) of the snowboard touches the snow when it should not, often causing the snowboarder to fall. (ex: during a frontside turn, on the toes, if the heelside edge ('backside carre') touches the snow, this is called 'une faute de carre back'.

Do you mean 'How are the French taught French?'. They would learn it the same way you learned English as a baby. Your French lessons would be more like their English lessons than their French lessons.
