feebles are where u do like ollie over the rial and then put ur forward truck into the smith and then a smith is just the opposite. like watch videos on youtube and you'll see the difference.

The approach. Just like blunt sliding a rail.

The difference between a frontside smith and a backside feeble is the approach.

Do you know what frontside and backside is? It refers to either: A) The side of your body that is facing your forward progress or: B) the side of your body that is facing the obstacle you're rolling up to.

a feeble grind is when your front truck is on the opposite side of the rail that you were skating to begin with

and a smith grind is when your front truck is on the same side of the rail that you were skating to begin with

if that makes any sense lol

This post is what I would say too. Plus when on a mini ramp a feeble would have the front truck out on the deck, and with a smith the front truck would be down on the transition.
