if your going to crash.. dont jam your skipoles down and try and save yourself... just crash and accept the pain that is coming. Or your going to break your thumb/s with the quickness.
so many noobs, try and save themselves by correcting themselfs with skipoles... its too late... your done already.

find a small rail thats close to the ground aproach it with enough speed to do it but not to fast. Keep your feet square and hit it dead on. When you hit the end of the jump pop and turn 90 degrees and keep your eyes at the end of the rail when you hit the end just jump off and your momentum should bring you another 90 degrees and land switch/ Practice practice practice

style comes with comfort. Once you're comfortable, style will come.
