dont worry about style, just do what feels natural, ive found that if you develop your skiing ability, and i mean real skiing, like going on the snow, having a good stance, one that works for you, youll look good regardless

just keep trying and work into it, and as you get more comfortable with spinning 270 on and landing on the rail you will be able to slow your rotation and style it out, you can change things as soon as you feel comfortable with it

I think as with anything the thing that makes somehting look stylish is keeping everything smooth and constant, not having sudden jerks, and keeping your hands in a good, natural position, not flying all ove rthe place...also if you can look in front of you the whole itme instead of looking over your shoulder, that would be sick. And make sure to tuck up your knees, that always helps. Im not sure if this is the kind of stuff you wanted, but good luck with it.

True, but not for everyone, it depends too, like sometimes if you think about it, it can be just as good as if you arent thinking about it or better, especially people ho do stuff pencilled out, they have to think to lift their legs and it helps.

he is prolly able to do switch 270 on...

why are people always sayin do a switch 270 on, thats like doin a half cab instead of a 180 cause your afraid of landin switch, its two entirely different things

die.
 
sno switch 270 on is easier for the reaosn that you are never blind to the rail.

just throw it like you would throw a regular 3 and just dont rotate as fast, but as long as u can 270 on its gonna look tight, so dial that first then werk on the style aspect

As far as boxes go, i think that you should actually try to bring your arms together. For myself it actually makes me balance better, cause it is smoother and, therefore, less likely being jerky and something going wrong.

For normal rails Im not really sure, cause it is definetly different and harder to balance, and I cant think off the top of my head what i do to do them.

switch 270 on are easy, 270 on was the next level for me other than switch unnaty 270, which i dont realy wanna try, next thing is nose butter 270 on, i can do em off lips and jumps, landing on a rail is another thing tho...

Dude, sim... come on... you do the 270 in the air, not on the rail.

Reaaaaallllllyyy...are you sure? The 270 is done in the air eh?

i can do 270's on without too much trouble, i just gotta work on gettin myself to stop spinning once i land on the rail or i'm gonna nut myself once my mtn puts up some bigger rails. switch 270's are real weird for me, cause i spin left, but i cant turn all the way to look over my left shoulder riding switch, its hard to explain

 
I agree...good style comes from looking comforble when you're doing something and that only comes from lots of practice.

 
for your style, which you're asking about:

something that makes it look cleaner, in my opionion, is this:

iv'e sene people, instead of twisting their head to look for the rail and being all sloppy, then simply look down while they're spinning. if you're spinngin to the left, look under your right armpit, tryingto find the rail there. when you spot it, you lock on it, and barely move your head. this is better than moving your head all around, for your head is what makes your arms move.

i wont drop out of high school for skiing, mom

 
When i do them i spot the rail at 180, so im looking up hill, and land on the rail that way. once im on i turn to look at the end of the rail, and momentum usually sends you into an easy 270 off.

 
yeah like tandan and someone else said, just keep practicing and getting comfy with them, the style will come when you're comfortable with them

as for me, i like to come a little from the side cuz when i spin i can..i don'ty know it just helps!
