I can't cross my regular spins, but I can cross my switch spins. Do you know why this could be or could you like help me?

crossing your skis is overrated anyways

do you spin in the same direction when you take off switch?

start making it a habit to try and point your right foot towards the left side of your body, kind of like following the motion of the spin...pretty much overemphasize it
seems logical

steeze man, steeze...keep you skis parallel and dont move your body at all when you spin, then the bitches will love you and you wont need the Axe® effect

dude, if you spin left why dont you try putting the left ski over the right and have the cross on your right side, all ya gotta do is reach down for the phil, reac back for the toxic, or reach forward for the mute cross. Give it a shot, thats the way I do it. i couldnt imagine spinning left and having the cross on the left side of my body, thats fucked. You're putting the motion of your cross against the motion of your spin, no wonder why its weird!

Yeah I like it with skis parallel but, crosses look cool with corks and mutes and stuff, I just want something other than, Safety, tail grab and critical to do.

my feet are wierd, they naturally go out. Like i can move one foot so that its totally backwards while the other is facing forward. So turning them in is more difficult.

that depends on the style of spin and the degree of rotation
