Replying to Help with ski slides on long boxes

207:

Okay, so I've been skiing for two years, got my 1st twin tips this year (Line Invaders) But really my 1st year I got introduced to the freeskiing world just hitting mini jumps. This year, I've really been trying things (Switch 180s, 3's) And I'm having trouble ski sliding long boxes. I'm talking 10-15 feet boxes I have trouble with. I can ski slide cleanly on small boxes but then I start trying 10-15 footers and I get 5 feet in and just have to bail or eat it. I can't understand what I'm doing wrong. Some of my friends say that I'm leaning too much back but then I perfect that and still have the same thing happen. I'm getting on the box perfectly, I have probably the cleanest slides on small rails possible, but then on these huge boxes I just eat crap. Can someone give me advice? Please don't make fun of me I've only been skiing for two years. >_>
