Ok got a question... whenever i get onto a rail fakie i look over my right shoulder and turn left... it just seems natural that way. i cant look over my left shoulder cuz it feels real weird... i can usually slide like 10 foot rails the way im doin it now but whenever i get onto a longer rail i lose my balance after a while.. what can i do guys? is there any way to make me look over my left shoulder, cuz i know your supposed to look over the shoulder your spinning towards but it doesnt work for me? can this be fixed or am i fucked?

just always look over your left shoulder from now on...it will feel weird, but once you get used to it...it will be normal. thats what i did. and now it feels weird to lok over my right shoulder

Or spin right instead of left, its not a big deal since u only spin 90 onto it.

Yeah I'm trying to break the habit of looking the opposite way, too. It's pretty much imperative that you learn to look and spin the same way, so you have to either change the way you spin, or change the way you look.

I was looking right and spinning right, is that not the best way to learn?

SUpilot, kill yourself, it's not even funny, anyway, i too look over my right shoulder, and spin clockwise on with my right foot foward to grinding, can anyone else post a tip on how to to get my whole body to slide off the rail and towards the right, should i set up to the left more????
