Alright so I spin left and at woodward I was trying 2s on and would always land tail pressing when I'd try 2s on because i went right. Also on the bag jump I came angled for the center of the bag and went way right about 3 feet from the end of the bag. Any Halp?

I do the same. I think it might have to do with spinning too early or something? Or maybe pusing off harder with your left leg when popping

try popping upwards and only start spinning until your skis no longer touch snow. you can wind your arms up before take off, but start with the spin just immediately after take off.

Make sure you pop from your core with even weight and your skis both facing perfectly straight.

In addition to what has been mentioned, make sure to pop off of both feet. If you are drifting to one side or the other it usually means that you are putting more weight on one foot, so basically you are carving off without really trying to. Most of the time if you are drifting to the right it means you have more weight on your left foot when you leave the ground.
