I need help with rails, bowes

sry for double post i might boxes lol and the text looks funny cause i posted it in another forum.

I am definately no expert at all, but practice turning 90 degrees on boxes until you get it down, then try on rails. Also if your mountain has like fat rails for begginers, learn on those.

dont worry about your skis being completely at 90, that will come with comfort, your skis slide out because you arent balanced right.  never ever ever ever ever look at your feet when you hit a box or rail.  thats how you slid out backwards (see, you shouldnt even know that your skis arent at 90)  look at the end of the box from before you hop on until the end.  this will help you keep your weight on your from foot.  it might even help to not just look at the end, but until youre comfortable you should even point at the end of the box too.  this again will help you keep your weight and momentum going forward on the box. 

yeah dude always keep your eye on the end of the rail. and a good balance trick is to approch a slanted rail and just step on and look at the end and slide down it just slow rolling slants though

It helped me to approach from straight on, with my skis a little wide. Before I was hitting it from the side and it was way harder.

that basicly happens except timothy wallnuts when they first start. best advice is this.  ride up to the box straight. shoulder width stance. pop 90. put just about all your wieght on your leading foot, lean on that badboy. and stare down the end of that box till your eyeballs bust. it keeps your momentum going in that direction.    if at first you dont suceed try try again. and in the modifyed words of amet dadahli, i dont care if your hip hurts your hip will get used to it!

widen your stance a little and lean forward

repetition man

just keep hiking till ya get it

the balance thing will come eventually

practice makes perfect, keep your eyes on the prize weight forward lokk to the end of the rail..........
