l forgot the name but it was like speed, direction, and some other stuff. can someone help me? thanks!
It was like this one word that got broken up about how to approach the box lol

staying flat edged

l just call it the approach
idk if thats the correct term

frontside? backside? switch? regular?

there is the term speed check. and there is also ''hit the box'' which means to grind it and there is ''set up'' which means to get ready for it

People worry too much about all these stupid terms.

Just do it. One of the best riders l know does not know the technical name for half the things he does, because he cares more about the trick then some dumb name.

I've placed on the podium for rail jams, and l have no idea what term you are talking about.

l am glad you are excited about snowboarding, but just hit the rail, and do not worry about terminology.
