Over the spring/summer, try making a roll in to then make into a dry slope in the warm months, and a small hill during the winter. There’s a tutorial on NS if you search up backyard rail setup.

If you have no space and are trying to learn stuff like 2s out you could build something like this

I was able to land 6 switch up 270 out variations on it, it’s good for learning edge control. I’d recommend building something better though
