That’s a weird one. I’ve done it on a little pvc setup but haven’t gone for it on a real rail yet.

cork 7s/9s, have them down on the tramp, even to 10, but was told that they are way different on skis so I have been sketched to attempt it, all I know right now is to have “forward shin pressure”

If you want to see what it looks like not to put forward pressure just check out my cork 7 thread

Recently trying to get my 3s/5s more consistent tbh. I know it’s nothing cool, but I have trouble feeling fully in control doing them on bigger jumps and staying right on axis.

After fully focusing on them again they’re feeling much better

All 4 2's on. Got regular 2's on lock, have landed a few SW 2's, need to do them more often. Sent a few lip 2's, gonna do more to get them locked. SW lip 2 is sketchin' me out, but going to send it next week.

Honestly sw lip 2s feel more comfortable than tails. I find it easier to get my noses over than my tails. Just focus on pop and maybe throw a few sw lips before and then send it.

Yeah thinking about it now it should be way easier. Tails is just awkward as hell. Gonna try to get all 4 this weekend!

make sure to go into the rail on a nice angle, for lip and tails. don't be too close or too far, maybe 2 feetish. pop nicely and be patient with spinning 90. tighten your core to suck your skis up and swing them on.

at the end of the day its just a lot of practice. Im still not great at them, but they get better every time I ski.
