so i just started park...and then the season ended for me. and i loved it so much i built a summer set up. i can slide the box unnatural / natural pretty easily and wanna move onto something else. so would learning 270's on be easier than like switch ups or just spinning on the box?

btw, i did post this in the trick tips cult forums too

27s out, switchups, 27 on
in that order
just mess around, for 27s out scissor the rail, frontsides are easier than bs
with sw ups make sure you look at the end of the rail after youve sw uped

ok alright thx. i'll try it today if i can get someone to help me move this heavy box... i didn't think it'd be this heavy when i built it. o well, i guess i'll have to think of something to make it lighter or like...transportable or something...

drill some wheels on the side, and u can flip it on the side and wheel it around, or build a cheap lil dolly

well idk how your box is built, but on mine they are fine... just use four small swivel wheels, and they wont get in the way

if you can 270 onto a box than you can probably learn a blind switchup pretty easily

i learned backwards from what these guys are saying
1)2 on
2)2 off
3)sw-up
all 3 are pretty easy and you should get the hang of them after 1 day or so, then start combining them

this is probably no the best advice...270 ons are much harder than the other two

I agree. And before you move from 270's out to sw-ups, make sure you learn 270's all 4 ways. Learning a trick all of the ways that it is possible before moving to a new trick will help you a TON in the long run, I wish I had done it when I was first learning tricks.

i learned things in a messed up order.  270 on then back 270 off, then front 270 off and i can not switch up.  If i could redo the order i learned i would learn front 270's off first easy trick that is really fun.

Yea thats sounds good, if you can get all four 270 off super super dialed you should be able to pretzel out on nearly everthing, given that you land center on the rail/box after your spin on/swith up. Good luck!
