I would highly recommend learning them on park features before trying on an urban rail

learning 2 ons in the streets is nuts, you’re a beast dude. for me i started locking them in when i snapped my head/shoulders around harder, and you can kind of cheat and shifty so you land fully perpendicular to the rail. main thing is the head and shoulders snapping around

find a better rail and build a better jump are the basic answers. you also have to like pop your knees and hit the rail at an angle to stick the landing

Looks like you're in Finland. Not surprised in the least that a Finn is learning 2s on to a skinny urban rail.
Pull your knees up to give yourself more time to match the transition of the rail. That last one where you looped out might have been a make on a less steep rail with a transition instead of flat landing. Try to just air on with some grabs to judge the timing and get used to pulling up your knees.

If you want to try to learn it in urban I would feel much safer to hit it from outside of saitrset, where you have more place to carve in with outside ski and innitiate the spin. But might be that pulling up legs would work too. Neverless still, props for trying to learn on skinny ass rail. Good luck.

I’ve been trying to learn them too, 90 percent of the time when I do get fully perpendicular, I slip out
