ok ive been working on 270s off of rails lately and switch up but im really confused.  when i try to 270 off i can get it spinning unnaturally to the right but cant get it spinning naturally to the left. and on switch ups i can do frontside switch ups but cant do blindside...

ya i used to have the problem. For blindsides, just remember to start it all with your head and shoulders, everything else will follow. Start looking around for the spin a bit before you pop, dont just pop and try to throw yourself.

for blind 270's think about looking around yourself to land forwards .... on the blind switch up to do it near mid rail and almost have to 270 out do this. when you get on spin into it harder than normal and continue the rotation and be ready to pop the switch up. If done correctly you should be about half way and when you get to the end you can try to stop your rotation or you can procede to do a frontside 270 out to switch

It looks sick if you do the spin out after a switch up
