Hey guys, just wondering what your preference is when you do 270s off of rail. I personlly find back sides easier so you land forward and they feel and look cleaner in my opinion. I can still do frontside 270s out but tend to do them less. I think the only time I would choose to do them was if it was off a steep urban rail because if you land underrotated a bit it is less forgiving.

what about you guys whats easier for you?
 
depends on the rail usually, for urban/down style rails i prefer the frontside/pretzel 270 on up rails i usually try the backside first
 
I find FS 270s easier, you can see you landing the whole time and like you said are much more forgiving. That said I thing BS 270s are much more impressive and look more natural/smooth/cool/better. IMO fs 270 is a played out trick
 
yea i think some people tend to sort of over grip and it looks mad sloppy. Ive always just found backsides easier, maybe becuase off a jump i spin left also? i dunno
 
depends if it's on a box or rail. If it's on a box, I find it easier just to keep the rotation going the same direction, whatever that may be. If it's on a rail (where there's more control) fs 2s are easier.
 
Both ways off fun natural jibbies is always fun, although I would have to go with backside, but I snowboard so....
 
I usually get on unnatural or 270 on and do it front side. Back side is really hard for me but might be easier the next time I go skiing this summer because I started blading and do bs 270 outs alot.
 
frontside is way easer i learned backside this year andi kinda have trouble with them i cant really get the pop into a good spinits kinda forced but i can get it around next year fo sho def masterin them
 
pretty much all my rail skill diminished when i couldnt get up to the mountain for a month... so all i can do now is fs even though i learned bs the second day of the season.
 
for me fs is wayy easier (i slide left foot forward and spin left so i naturally learned those first) but as far as looks go id say its a toss up.

But yeah front 4's are the tits.
 
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PRETZEL 270 kids are so fucking dumb sorry but this is like the 100th time ive seen kids say this

just cause u slide right foot and grip and spin 270 out front side does not make it a pretzel in any sense. you have to rotate 180+ , then change directions for it to be pretz
 
fs 27's look so gay imo. bs looks way smoother and better off anything pretty much.

best rail trick ever is a fs switchup to bs 270 out on a dfd id have to say
