I'm working on backside switch-ups and need help. I got front swaps down but every time I try blind swaps I never get it. I thinks its just a commitment thing but is there any other tips? THANKS NS MEMBERS U ROCK

start to turn like your about to back 270 off, when you start to turn just hop and it'll spin you around onto it.

Scissor to start the rotation, but make sure you pop and flatten out your skis to get that back tip all the way up and over, lead with your shoulders and head, look for the end of the rail, pop off, land, afterbang.

After you do the switch up on the rail make contact with the end of the rail again if there is more then a few feet of rail left.

I would try going for a set like a back 2 but imagine landing back on the rail again. Took me quite a while too. Hope that helps.
