hey guys. whenever i try and land switch in the pipe, i can never keep my speed long enough to get all the way up the other wall.

any help?
 
last time I went air to fakie in pipe my tail got hung up on the top of the pipe and I flipped backwards into the middle. 18 ft walls made it much more painful. But I guess pump it switch.

just ride it like you normally would and just do it switch... pump the walls, keep skis flat in the flat bottom, and act completely as you would as you're riding normal. its a big weird at first.. but youll catch on and get used to it. all comes with time.
 
when you do the air to fakie take more of a downhill angle at it....go more down than up. you dont need to go huge to carry speed into the next hit. then just stay on your toes and use your arms to help pump in the tranny....and a lot of prectice
 
thanks. i have a habbit of when i go air to fakie, landing with my front tips on the lip and letting them kind of guide me down, to kind of keep me from landing with tips on the table. should i stop this? i dont think it is loosing me much speed.

also, recently it has been very slow snow or alot of loose snow in the center of the pipe, so i bet that is my problem.

i dont think i have been slidding sideways
