How to 270 on?

for ride on 270s look to the end of the rail as you're approaching the lip, it should help you lock into the rail.

For urban 270s make sure to get your tips over the rail before completing the rotation, and don't forget to pop. Also, look to the end of the rail as you would on a normal 270 on.

If your problem is with over rotating, then only bring your upper body around 180 (before locking in) and your legs around 270. Sorry if that does make sense. theres a tutorial video somewhere I'm pretty sure that explains all of this much better.

Thanks. I'm going skiing again tomorrow so i'll keep that in mind!
 
2 on is more similar to a 180 on to a rail than a 360. Thinking about that may help since a lot of times people do 2 on and than keep rotating when they land on the rail
 
Unless you can do em perfect on boxes, go do that it really helps for rails. Also, 2 key to riding the 2on out:

-if it's non side entry, come in straight, pop and spot end of rail. If it's side entry you gotta come in at a very small angle, pop hard first and then spin.

-something i didnt do at first, and when i did i realised how much it helped to not slide off before the end: land 270, dig front ski tip in the rail, like you're trying to land switch. It really helps staying balanced, plus it looks and feels awesome. Really easy to do too. Oh and if you dig it a little harder come out switch, always steazy
 
KEEP YOUR SHOULDERS SQUARE WITH THE RAIL. Thats the first thing you should have in your head its key for locking in.
 
For urban 2s on i like to come into the rail at a 15 degree angle on the snow. Come up to the lip pop spot the rail at 180, let my body continue until i make contact with the rail. then make sure you get a good grip (think gas pedal) and then either continue the spin to forward or pretzel it to switch. hope that helps!
 
POP! I big mistake is also leaning back when throwing it, so keep your shins on the tongues of your boot and then go for it
