I think I'm not getting enough speed or something, or I'm not centered on the rail/box. I getting booted at the top of the trap box. Any tips on general up rails??

booted? like chads? r u goin switch at 90mph and hoping to make it? just gettin thrown off is not booted.

anyways, slow down, turn 90, suck up yur legs at the top, and slide it like any box.

lol,
The other day, I tried to disaster a battle ship and cleared the entire thing and ate shit big time. We got it on tape, it looks so funny.
Try not to do it though it hurts like a mofo

i love trap boxes, but i used to suck at them. i used to always come off at the flat.. but then i started jumping on further to one side, not like all the way nosepress on the up.. but moreso than I was doing at first cuz i kept going off onto my tails and falling off. once you get a feel for it you can just do it.
