I would assume you can blind 2 easier because that is the way you like to spin, you could learn getting on the rail with the other foot forward so that you can front 2 out but spin the way you prefer. Good luck

no its weird, blind isnt the way i naturally spin off jumps.

im left foot forward on rails, but spin to the right on jumps, so front should be easy......
cant figure out the scissor or something

You just got some blocks in your head that keeps you from doing it. Just go for the front 2 no MATTER what the next time your skiing.

Get on the rail normally, do like you would to come off forward again, but pop harder and rotate your hips to switch.

try locking the shoulders down the rail. With your upper body creating tension, your lower body and skis will follow. Hold back that tension and release at the end of the rail with a pop.
Then, just follow through. Its much easier on a rail than a box.
