Honestly, my form. I've noticed I spent most my skiing career just bombing hills. Focusing on finding the front ofy boot, good pole plants and nice movement. I'm happy where I am right now. Definitely improved loads since the start of the season.

Johngreenacrethis


Okay so I just learned these actually. Try carving hard off the lip then grabbing double safety/double boot/anything to get your knees to your chest. You might not cork at first but it definetly starts to help with off axis rotation. Once you feel comfortable start carving harder and dipping your shoulder into the spin.

Went multiple years only hitting rails natural, trying to get comfortable doing unnatty stuff. Gonna try some 2p2's soon and hopefully land one, basically my goal for the season

This exactly. I slowly learned them by carving on the takeoff and grabbing tweaked safety. The more I got used to the axis the harder I dipped my shoulder on the takeoff. Eventually you can spot the landing between your legs and you know you nailed it.

think about a 180 with your body, 270 with your skis. go in looking down at the rail, don't look up like a spin on a jump. good luck!

When you go off the lip put more weight on your outside foot (the one further from the rail) so that you land with your weight down the rail
