I just started skiing this year and i started trying rails, but what useually happens is i get on slide about 6-7 feet and then i start to turn to go switch and my tails just finish the rail always, any advice?

It sounds like your trying to switch to the side of the rail. Try riding the whole thing out, then turning switch at the very end. But what do I know, I stink at rails.

your probably doing one of three things

landing the rail too far back on your tails and slowly sliding off of them (just pop farther from the side of the jump and that pretty much fixes that)

not poping onto the rail and just riding onto it,it seems to be alot easier to slide off doing that

not spotting the end of the rail so you kinda trail off towards the end of it.

Just getting a some good pop onto rails seemed to fix alot of things for me

 
Your over-rotating on your 90 on. If you want to avoid going switch, come in from a slight angle, stay on as long as you desire and then come off tips first

 
i like landing switch but i just cant help it

try coming at the rail straight, if you come on fro mthe side you may drift. Like if you come on from the right side of the rail, you will drift left and your tails will grind the end.

Like a virgin on prom night

You can go on the bottom bunk and finish it yourself

When you guys are on those rails, it's like muah

You A-hole
 
when u tap the rail look at the end. when u get to the end practice poping off the rail.it harder to do but way siicker. also try getting more speed. it makes it easyier. that happens to me when i dont have enough speed.just give er.another tip is also have headphones on for a siick beat. it gets u pumped.kill it.

 
try to go straight of the rail and dont look right beside ur skis try to look were ur going it worked for me

shit i still gotta wait all weekend to go skiing again, the rail was my friends peice of plexi glass in his back yard and there is like 2 inches of snow here, so the runway/lip was really thin, that mite be part of my problem

If you are sliding on your tails try to slide of the noses and it may balance you out...

stay sideways and look at the end of the rail. it sounds stupid but it really works if you look at the end.

Being out there skiing every day, good or bad, just playing around with friends, with no contests or filming- that is the real spirit of skiing for me. that is why i started skiing, and if i lose those moments that is what will make me stop skiing.
 
it sounds like your'e turning too much when you get on. like going a little past 90 and it ends up spinning you around too early
