Hey Guys,

Been a long time since i rode on skiboards even the park lol

check out my vid from yesterdays riding.

I know the first 3 attempts suck, i realized that i needed to go much faster to ride clean away from the rail and icy landing.

Hah, those first three attempts look like my first three this season. Only difference is, I didn't record them. :P

Ya, i wasn't going to show them either but i figured it would be educational for those new people. Speed will help you get across rails ;-) The other shots were done in one take.

I consider myself educated, I have yet to hit a decent rail.

i do the same, when i spin naturally i spin to the left. but when i ride fakie i spin to my right, jumps wise and rail wise. also when i 270 onto a rail. i spin to the left, btu i also jumped and aprouch from the left. so i spin and bring my tips onto the rail! backwards spinning is where its at!!!

Most right handed right footed naturally turn right to left.. I am right handed left footed so i rotate left to right..

litte odd but meh it works for me :)
