Put more weight on your front boot and then you'll be fine

You basically just slap your skis the first couple times. It takes a bit to grab and not slash your gloves

The safety grab is actually the safest grab as long as you land it perfectly

I'm trying to imagine this. Is this the reach down and grab version while you're on a rail?

The key to actually landing tricks like that is to do them without falling

yes it may also be due to the fact that every night i set out candles in the shape of a pentagram and sacrifice goats. but no, i think it's my username that does it

you're right, it's time, I'm gonna do one because its easier than safety grab bc you can keep your weight on your back foot like a hockey stop
