I'm wondering what they're called and any tips on how to do em, i love the look of em and how smooth it looks to spin out.

Thanks guys!

Oh and here's a video with some in it...

Are you talking about the blindsole 270's? I would also like to know how to do this. Do you spin into the rail while leaving your inside ski down? Whenever I try I just end up slamming my inside knee on the box/rail

i can do some of them. the one im best at is when your just on the rail and you take one ski off and use it to spin around.

this is kinda just a claim tho cuase i dont know how to explain how i do it

yah when your grinding a box, take your back foot and stick it behind you so it catches the edge, and it will pull you around

didn't watch the videos, but i'm assuming your talking about when they have on leg up behind them and the use it to spin off the box? haven't been able to do them yet, but i'm starting by working on landing on the box with my downhill foot only. once i get comfortable with that i'll bring my uphill leg up behind me, and it should be pretty easy from there.
