Never tried one but I really think i can! I can slide rails good and i can 2 out frontside. Im wondering were u apply pressure on your ski because for a 2 out frontside you press down on your heel. Any tips would help!

Biggest thing is just looking where you want to go. Try not to over think the pop.

For me its easier to set an edge for a front spin but I like blind spins way more because its my natural way, and you land forward which makes it easy to get around, just set an edge and your golden, just dig that toe and lift that heel and you'll go pro.

Be patient and don't pop too early

Yeah just lift your heel a bit and put pressure on your forward toe, pop and keep your head looking where you want to be and you'll come around

When i learned them, i didnt look with my head. I had to pop and push mad with my toe. Id say make sure you look with your head & shoulders, as well as pop.

Try to pop high and straight up into the air not off to the side

You really got to commit, it's all or nothing. I find them easier on shorter rails and just look over your up hill shoulder and you should be fine

This ^. Basically popping up is better than going to the side everytime

What you have to do is drop your front foots toe and commit to turning your head and shoulders uphill all while popping and it should come around. hope you can figure these out, good luck
