How? I can hardly switch lip a rail without catching if it's higher than a couple inches from the lip/jump. Do you need to approach from a really high angle or what?

Pop like a fakie ollie off your tails going switch and be really patient bringing your tips over. Sometimes coming in wider at more of an angle can help too. Patience and pop is the key.

Patience is key, many edge catch, much learn.

you gotta wait until your at the top of your arc to move your skis 90 degrees. Its terrifying but you gotta pop a lot more than normal and put a lot of effort into what you always thought was simple. thats why i don't do switch lips on high urban rails. its just a bad idea
