So today was my second day out and i kept telling my self i would try a 270 off but the whole day i couldnt get the balls for do it. Its nothing super big obviously its just a 270 but i dont know why i wouldnt try it. i just kept feeling i wouldnt get enough momentum to rotate the whole way around. Like i wish i had people pushing me to do it but i dont.
any tips.
yea it did help, im officially promising myself that im at least going to try it next time.
about the ice thing, i am on the east coast bbuutt weve been doing pretty good so far( great actually) with plenty of snow and not much ice so lets hope it continues that way.
Step 1
watch people 270 out in movies on NS, analyze the tapes
Step 2
imagine how it will feel and look to 270 out
Step 3
Find the smallest rail. Step on it at the end. Stand on the rail at the end, jump off it and spin a 270.
Step 4
Learn to slide the rail. Learn to 90 off in the direction you want to spin the 270. Throw the 270
Step 5
Try at least ten more 270 offs on that rail to get it on lock. Don't stop after you do the first one or you will lose it the next time you go skiing.
thanks thats actually some of the best adivce ive got.
alos can someone give me the difference between a bagel and a pretzel( in terms of skiing because i know some will define the food as a joke, i would)
UPDATE: well i weant today and after a coupel runs i was just like "fuck this" and weant for a FS and wiped out and realized it didnt hurt so i hiked the rail and got it on my second try. I then weant over to a nice 8 foot flat box and said to my self " if i did a 270 out otday, why not go for a 270 on" so i tried it and got it on my first try. I was so pumped by this point that i weant back to the rail and decided to try switch ups ( which i can never do for some reason) it didnt work out well but i got on switch up atleast.
the only problem is the 270's had no steeze what so ever, but im going to work on that next time i head out ( hopefully friday)
the only thing im having toruble with is landing the 270, since its FS im landing switch but im keep landing to far forward causing my heels to eject. i probably attempted to 270 off 20 times and i got 7 of them and all 13 other times i landed to far forward causing atleast one of my skis to eject. how can i stop this because if it wasnt for that i would have had all 20.
of and any tips for BS 270 off?
