Hey I'm relatively new to going in the park and was wondering how to hit boxes and rails better than just popping onto them. Is there any suggestions on how to expand my horizons for in the park?
One thing that will add a little fun to our basic rail slides & box slides, without increasing the risk too much would be trying things like urban-ons and lipslides.
Urban-on basically means that, instead of coming at a feature straight on, come at it from the side and lift your noses over the rail; while lipsliding is the opposite, with your tails coming over the feature. They're really not any more difficult, if anything they're easier on a lot of features (in my opinion).
Urban-on is fairly self-explanatory, but here's a lipslide video:
Other than that, try working on 270 outs, and sliding with your bad foot forward.
I slide towards my left and consider my right foot (uphill) my good foot since that's pretty much your support, so it'd be good foot forward, but whatever you prefer.
