i've gotten through the "in awe" stag of summer setups when you just love the idea your skiing in may, now i need to get down to the business of actually getting better, right now i can slide my rails and come out switch, so i'm not that good, whats the next step i should take and practice on my setup (flat rails, flat boxs, down/up box)

switch on and 270 out, once you have switch on, switch 270 comes like nothing.

Wierd cause I can switch 270 super easy but I can't switch on. I also can't 450 out but I can 450 on.

Is there anyway to switch your down/up box to an up down box, it will make it easier to try switch ups, and other stuff.
Buf, def try all 270 offs and all 4 switch ups. Unnatty slides are pretty easy, and I think it is encredibly important to slide both ways. Tail presses and nose presses are very important too.

it took me at least a year to get regular 270s on after i learned to sw 270 on. i just found sw 270s it a lot easier because you're never blind.

learn to slide both directions so it will be easier to learn 270 and switch up so you can be comfortable going either way

way to go guys! he asked for what to do next and weve effectively named almost every trick on a rail without spinning 450s or more
All times are Eastern (-4)
