Never shoot straight on, you cant tell whats going on (unless is obviously a down rail) shoot one angle from above or below 15-45 degrees from the rail then film a second angle 80-100 degrees from the rail, then you have either a good takeoff/landing with mediocre vise versa then an angle that gets both take off and landing.

And if you flim from above to the skiers right of the rail, film from the side from skiers right never film from opposite sides.

find out what trick the skier is going for and position yourself accordingly so as not to get ass shots.
