ddemille1Thanks! Do you think a taller rail would help me as well?
Yes 100%. That is kind of a low rail to be trying 4 out for the first time on. It's more than doable, just a rough place to learn it since you're hucking really hard off a low rail like that.
Just remember to spot your landing and don't look at your feet and you should get it soon enough. Lean forward, aggressive stance, all that good stuff.

Thanks for the help, hoping that the park crew will put some larger features in soon
all good advice so far. don't lean back, don't look down and spot your landing. stay aggressive stance and set it and forget it. don't worry about your edges catching on the way around, just pick up your knees a little as you pop into the spin
You've got blind 2's down right? Same spotting idea there (as in, don't look at your feet, don't look down at the snow, keep your head up toward the horizon and use your eyes to find your landing zone) You should be spotting your landing the same way you do in a blind 2. Once you do that first 180, it just becomes a blind 2.
If you're not spotting your landing during a blind 2, fix that and get used to that feeling. I know it's the opposite way you're spinning for a front 4 but it should help. It might help more if you slide unnatty and blind 2 to really get the feel for it, but that depends on how good your unnatty slides are.

I can blind 2, and sometimes 4. But I'm not too good at unnatural stuff, can get a k fed every once in a while.
Just keep your head turned and you got that. The rotation is there, the huck is there. Keeping your head turned past 270 will keep you balanced and bring it around
ddemille1I guess I'm just used to spotting with a front 2, gonna try to get these next time I go
yeah just don't treat it like a front 2, just set it and forget it, don't look down, don't lean back. you completely almost have it, just make those adjustments and youre gonna be bangin 4s out of stuff no problem. super fun trick
