So iv been trying broken grinds and im having trouble, once my back ski is dragging on its edge it immediately sticks and slows me down. I don't know if my edges are to sharp but i feel like its my break thats dragging and getting caught. Once it catches my weight of course shifts forward, and yesterday when that happened i caught my edge on my front ski and it was a painful crash off the box. So is it my break? Are my edges to sharp? What am i doing wrong, thank

ya i think you should go faster. i doubt its your edges are really sharp most of the time and i never hook. Good Luck.
