I´ve been trying them lately and I am allready prettey confident with doing pretzels if my right foot is sliding foreward, as in 2on swup pretzel 2 out (i usually slide the right foot foreward), but I need some advice with pretzels if my left foot is sliding foreward, as in 2 on pretzel 2 out.
I just cant get em. I either slide off the box on its right side or cant get the pretzel at all.
Where should I learn em? I learned the 2on swup pretzel 2 out on picknick tables. I´m very confident with 2ons on boxes, but not at all on rails.
So, any advice d be apprechiated.

learn to 2 onto rails its not that bad same thing as boxes just you have to land perfectly at 270

but i learned pretzels on a box even though they are easier on rails. go stand on a skateboard at home and practice gripping (left foot toe down) on the edge of your skateboard and pushing yourself around the other way. also on snow make sure you go the full 270 before you grip. you have to do a lot more pushing with your foot than you think.
