Grinding a box

Had my first atempt at grinding a box at the weekend and although it was great fun the only way I could get to the end was by just going straight over it front ways. every time I tried jumping onto it sideways I fell off. Although on my last go I got my feet right in the middle of it and then fell back up hill onto the box. Whats the technique? Should I have my feet wide or close should I hit it slow or fast and should I lean towards the start of the rail or the end of the rail?

Any advice would be greatly apriciated.

 
should width apart, bend a little at the knees and waist but don't over do it, and lean forward (towards your front foot)

 
lean forward is a must.. make ur feet square with ur shoulders.. and dont be afraid to commit.. that was my biggest problems, look at the end of the box, and dont look down

try turning half way side ways at first it doesnt really matter cause the box is soo wide. then work your way up. dont try that for trying your first rail though youll seriously hurt yourself.

ya ski real wide the wider the better and get low on your skies by bendin your kneesfroward and look with your head to the end of the box and keep your weight to the front so you don't fall back on the box then try turning your shoulders up the hill if you want to swich out and land with your knees bent, good luck

 
some boxes can be harder than some rails but for the most park theyre mad easy. Just head towards it with a little more speed than you think you need and stay pretty low, with your feet spread apart. Then right at the lip just pop 90 degrees and stay low as possible. At first, youre balence wont be so good, so keep looking at the end the entire time until it gets real easy. then you can steez it out and keep your arms low

don't go real fast, and stay low...boxes are easy one you 'get it'

to 270 out, where do you usually begin to spin or wind up?

don't be scared that the edge of your ski will get caught 2 cuz it won't unless the box is really fucked up

dont wind up to spin off. when ur on the rail point your body just a little bit in the direction you wanna 270 off and just go for it.

first time i learned 270's out was on a cbox.... i didnt even think about going for it i just got to the end and i was like hmmm i think i could 270 out and then i did... and first time 270ing on i did it on about a 2 foot high rail my first time and i worked my way up...

you slide pretty much all boxs the same even kincked ones wide feet lean foward and bend your knees the rest is just practice keep hittin the bax and youll get the feel

 
i can only land switch off a box, unless i slid 270 across it and land forward as i'm comming off. I think it's just cuz when i spin 90 to get on the box, my momentum is carrying my tails around, so it's easier to spin with it than to try to pop up and spin 90 back.

Ski like you fuck; fast and hard with a stupid grin on your face.
 
id agree with the first few posts as far as tips go for the most part however, i wouldnt say lean forward. mabe to the slightest bit but you really want to be in a good centered/solid stance. also try and make sure that the bases of your skis stay flat (especially the rear ski) so that you dont catch.

just keep your wait 60% on your front foot and about 40% on the back and you will be fine
