What helps me most with riding switch is sticking my butt out. It sounds funny, but when I make a real conscious effort to try to stick my butt out way over my tails, it gets my weight in the right spot and I am much more stable.

maybe try switch 180s on smaller jumps first before hitting the biggest one you can find on your first day?

Don't look too far over your shoulder..I don't know what I was doing the first time I went for a switch 1 this year. But I started to cork out as I was leaning forward because as I looked over my shoulder I sorta looked down, I don't really know what happened, but it was bad news.

Possibly carve a bit into it, and as you come off just throw your lead shoulder as you would in a reg spin. So for me I spin left, So i throw and swing my right arm across my body and grab unless I'm grabbin with that hand.

buh that right..

when i do switch 3's i try to grab the other ski to what way im spinning

eg when spinng switch to the right, when im part through the first 180, i try to grab my right ski binding kinda thing,like a saftey belt.

yeah definitely be patient witht he spin, and stay calm

as for spinning more than 3, i sort of treat it as a reg spin

like when i do switch 5, it's more just like doing a straight 3 but i do a quick 180 first...

anyone wanna trade movies for my brand new session 1242 or RFA?
