Hey I've been having trouble getting the full k-fed. I get the front swap most of the time but stall my rotation instead of completing to two out. How do I keep rotating?

Throw the swap harder and follow through with your shoulders and head, your core/legs will always follow your shoulder and eyes. I wrote a crazy in-depth tutorial on it in another thread like 2 weeks ago, searchbar for it.

Work on going blind 2 out of the foot you swap too. For example if you start left foot forward on the rail just work on right foot forward back 2.

It sure helps, but for me I was doing k feds way before unnatural blind 270 out. OP, I'd say try to look in front of you and not your feet, it will really help for the switch up and swing it like you would do a front 4. I'd say it's easier to do it all in one motion than to lock the blind 2.

Just set a front 4 before the end of the rail.

when you go for the blind 2, pop your tips up and commit to that last bit of the rotation. Look over the shoulder youre spinning to, your body will follow and the landing will appear

learn them towards the end of the rail and just throw it like a front 4. then once you get comfortable with those you can start doing legit ones in the middle of the rail
