i wanna try 270's onto urban style down rails this year but im not sure how. id do it onto something with a pretty good size jump on first try, like mabye only a foot lower than the rail. it seems like you would kinda do a slower 90 to make sure your tips clear then whip around the 180 real quick, so like 90 late 180. or do you just spin fast from the begining? the only real thing im scarred of is hitting my tips or something. so can someone help?

Yeah I usually just pop my tips really high. Then once I know I'm over it spin the rest. Or just pop really high and spin. Whatever. Just make sure your tips are going over the rail.

Dont be a puss, just lift your knees and spin. If you eat shit then drink a beer and try again.

lip 270 is the thing to be scared of. Just try it a few times n u'll get it. If you can 270 onto most anything but a down rail u should be plenty capable. handle it!

start rotating your shoulders right off the lip but shifty your skis a little till your tips get over the rail. then square up and land balanced.
