HELP with rails

[splooshie]

whenever i hop on a rail, i get like halfway down and then either my tails or nose fall off the rail. any suggestions on how to fix it?

commit

 

[splooshie]

yano... u could be a little more specific than "commit"

 

[BRMN]

go faster, land in the center of the rail not on ur tips or tails, and COMMIT!

 

[Shpadoinkle]

keep your balance and commit.

maybe even go a little faster commin off the kicker.

 

[dubage]

line it up right inbetween your legs, go fast, pop 90, and slide it hard

 

[Albino]

yeh, if ur coming off left and right, its cos ur not going fast enough and your subconciously giving urself an out. commit and commit hard.

 

[mistaskia]

basicly everything everyone else has said but make sure ur looking at the end of the rail the whole time. dont look right in front of you.

omg im such a scardy cat it takes me soo long to commit and to try the rail... im so scard and i dont get y!!!

I find it easier when you keep your weight centered on the search bar

 

[poofartpee]

get low and centre ur weight as much as u can

 

[PeteyG]

yea i did that a ton last yr. u might be going at it at an angle and ur just slippin off it. or ur turning 90 degrees too late and still kinda spinning on the rail. ull get it just keep practicing

20 bux youre not lookin atthe end of the rail.

stare it down like it fucked your girlfreind... then grease it!

Center mount your skis and bend you knees. That was actually my problem the fist year I started.

I think that is goin in my quote.

oh and try to keep your hands down. it helps alot.

your hands by your side, will help you balance more. so if you have to shift your weight you can use your arms a little more, and itll help you keep a lower center of gravity. so as long as you keep looking forward at the end of the rail, youll grease that shit like a denny's grill.

look at the end of the rail. helps a tonne.

im having the same problem..today i feel like i lost my ability to slide rails, i always get like halfway and then fall off switch

 

[Wis_Skier_23]

it might be the way you jump on to the rail because i had that problem too....i actually look like 5' ahead of me instead of the end of the rail but its your personal preference
