whenever you're walking around and doing the standard jibs on curbs you walk by, just do all your 270 on/switchups spinning right all summer, and then when its time to take it on snow you'll feel a lot better

practice on a tramp a bit, just to get used to the feeling and how to throw it.

if you can afford it, water ramps are another idea to help you out.

finding the right axis is important since whenever I used to try spinning unnatty since it felt different I would throw my shoulders weird and spin on a super sketchy axis
if you can tramp try doing slow threes and get comfortable with it, otherwise just work on getting comfortable with small 1s and 3s and keep working your way up

just keep doing it to better understand how your body will react. tramps can help, but also hurt you cuz its a weird motion. I feel the best is just simply spinning in sneakers over and over again.

when you go to bed at night, sleep on the shoulder that is the opposite of the way you spin. so i spin left. i sleep on my right shoulder. ive been stayin on axis with most of my rightside spins since i started doing this

1-buy keystone lift ticket, midway through season
2-go to large jump line
3-throw self as hard as can in right direction
4-learn what you did wrong
5-repeat untill you can do it right.
