Every single time I try to 2 on a rail I slip off. I cant stop my momentum and I just spin off the second I land on the rail. How do I fix this?

Backside pedal when you land on the rail. Learning how to backswap to switch can help. Also looking back at the top of the rail when you first land instead of the end of the rail can unconsciously stop your momentum.

Try and scissor the rail to stop your momentum. Do it almost like your going to do 2p2.

back swap to switch meaning a back swap on top of a rail to switch?
