Man’s skiing on the snapped Vs😭

I can’t 2 on very well I’ll just say keep a neutral stance and don’t lean and look at the end of the rail

They're all I've got 😭

Michigang and I will be out tomorrow hiking the park all day. I'll post an update if I land one on camera (assuming she still wants to be my filmer after watching me eat shit 200 times).


Definitely need to get these locked soon. Idk why I was such a little bitch and never tried them before.

Focus on keeping your arms down. You want to swing your elbows to rotate your upper body around first, but hands above the head creates the wrong motion and kills your balance. The other thing is you want to have tail pressure coming off the lip as you rotate your upper body first. That way when you clear the rail with your noses, your upper body is mostly there and you just swing your skis around until you're over the rail at 270 if that makes sense. Go watch some edits of pros or whoever 2ing on.

Then go do a 270?? tf you want me to say. Figure it out, stop being pedantic, go out and try it. It's like riding a bike buddy, just find the balance. I prefer this site in the fucking summer when kids aren't spamming the most pointless threads filming it and then get defensive when I point out what I saw, did you not ask for help? so I gave some advice but nah, guy already knows that. Okay best skier at your local resort right? go figure it out. if you slide the rail both ways so well you shouldnt have any issues with figuring it out. Sure my advice isn't what most people wanna hear, tough shit, I don't care. If you can't take criticism don't offer yourself to be criticized. Fucking master of both way rail slides, jesus christ.

end of thread post a clip of you getting 1 or ur a bitch.
