I was over at my friends house on saturday and we built a pretty nice backyard rail. And after a bit i decided to try to 270 off it, i almost got around, but i couldnt get about the last 20 degrese, so i kept eating it. IS there any way to spin faster?

how are you spinning it against your rail rotation or with it?

Start to rotate your body when you get close to the end of the rail. Try to keep you skis perpendicular. When you release off the rail you will spin faster. You can also jump up off the rail a little. Its easier with a good drop. Frontside to switch is easier than backside to facing forward.

if you spin naturally to the left, spin unatural onto the rail, then naturally off....it's the easiest way.

make the rail higher or go faster. you need more drop time dummy.

dont jerk your body around, keep your body moving as one and just think smooth. This will make you spin faster, plus you can concentrate on your landing better

yeah probably just the lack of drop time is preventing you form pullin a 270, raise the rail somehow and try it then

after you finish the rail, spin a 270. if you think about that, you should be able to get it in no time.
