k, if you spin a left 270 onto the box so your left foot is forward, its easier to use your left foot toe to grip the box and spin back.

so it goes like this: 270 on, grip with left(leading foot) toe, push back to spin off, stomp it with a bit of afterbang and thats it.

If your mountain sets up a rail soon, try it on that. I find they are easier on rails than boxes.
