When pigs enter a wallow, they normally dig and root in the mud before entering with the fore-body first. They then wriggle the body back and forth, and rub their faces in the mud so all of the body surface is covered. Before they leave the wallow, they often shake their heads and body, often finishing with rubbing against a tree or a stone next to the wallow. 3, record 2, English, - mud%20wallow

Tail stiffness is also important. Too soft and it won’t support you if you shift your weight backward, too stiff and it won’t conform to uneven terrain. Torsional(twisting) stiffness allows the ski to ride around a root or stone without prying the skier to the side and into the snow. 1, record 4, English, - tail%20stiffness

La rigidité du talon importe également. Un talon trop mou ne supportera pas votre poids lorsque vous le déplacerez vers l'arrière, alors qu'un talon trop dur ne se conformera pas au terrain. La résistance à la torsion permet aux skis de contourner les racines ou les pierres sans que le skieur ne quitte sa trajectoire. 1, record 4, French, - rigidit%C3%A9%20du%20talon
