on quarters? come again?

definitely post that video, that's the best way to get good advice, but for now i'll pass on the super helpful advice some dude told me when he saw 15 year old me trying to learn switch 270s one day: "LIFT YOUR KNEES!"

I switch lip right and couldn't switch 2 until trying left. Had to learn to look over my left shoulder first but was worth it in the end, landing right foot forward is nat for me so it made combos with it come super quick. Hit up the mini park if your mountain has one and start with a dancefloor or box until you're comfortable with the rotation then work your way up. Easier than regular 2 ons for me at this point if its a mellow feature.

Ohhh gotcha. That's a very different trick than sw 2 into a rail! Post that vid but for small switch spins the most important advice I got was take off THEN spin. You don't need to rush it

lots of speed and bring them knees up. I tried them very angulear (coming into the rail at an angle, but now i have started coming in more straight and they feel a lot more easy and natural
i land unnat and do the Sw270 natural
