Basically what they told me was to keep your weight centered, or slightly forward. Look at the end of the rail/jib. Line up straight with the rail, and make sure your weight is balanced throughout each foot. Its also important to make sure you land with the rail centered between the feet, that you get the full 90 on. Hope this helps man, good luck, Ride On.

gorilla steez can screw you up alot. Gorilla steeze might be good in the inrun if you cant keep forward pressure without it, but unless you have rails dialed gorrila steeze will cause you to fall off the rail forward pretty early.
