if i were you i'd cut my dick off and tape it to the tip of your ski to counter-weigh your tails thus not allowing your tails to slide off and thus successfully landing a kfed.

Post up a video. And what I found helps was to scissor/drag more and pop a bit less

nump, because at the end, youre going pretty fast, and the landing is flat so its a struggle to 2 off anyways. I am creating a dirt mound to make the rail flat. should be totally not sketch

nah keep your down rail its way better like that. you just have to learn how to do a fs swap to sw out. learn that, once you'll be able to do it clean the blind 2 will come off pretty easily.

This, the blind 2 will just be a continuation of your first switch up. I would hit it slower if possible and maybe scissor better for the swap, this will keep your shoulders spinning to pull it around. A lot of times I will leave my shoulders behind while spinning the opposite direction and this will make it harder to spin out blind, but easier for pretz 2s. I hope this helped, I'm pretty pissed I didn't build a summer set up this year, that thing looked fun. Oh well winter is coming,
