grab your skis, crossing them isn't as cool. if you have the grabs securely in place then by all means tweak it out and cross them up, but its about the grab not the cross man

spin into your ski. so if you spin left cross left over right, if you spin right cross right over left. hope this helps

you have to be past/at 180 before you do any grab or whatever. Also don't forget to hit your take off.

He's just saying that because it will help make things easier, not that its impossible
