lean forward, you won't do this for your first few times, but after the bruise on your hip/ ass grows, you'll get it just fine.

committing is key, once you clean the whole rail you will realize how much it matter to committ. and also put more weight on your front foot so you dont fall back onto the rail

It's really is just a matter of try/fail. There's no real good tips that will make you slide the rail your first try(s). You will fall, it's just a matter if you are willing to get back up, click back in and hit the rail again and again until you clean it.

dont be hesitant cuz that will make you lean back, which in turn will make you fall.i had trouble wit that at first, but just make sure to not hesitate, as other people are saying, "commit" to it

join the trick tip cult, there aren't enough people in it so questions do not get answered very fast. But if more people stop asking trick tips in this section and used trick tip forum everything would be perfrect!!
