leaning on the front ski helps a lot. if your backseat at all your not gonna be switchin anythin anytime soon.
 
every thread on here should be responded with "practice"

i used to ask for help all the time and schoening would just say practice.

long story short when u learn them there is no replacement . everything is simple physics.

just PRACTICE. u will soon get it
 
absolutely true. gotta learn to step outside of your comfurt zone of skiing down the hill and NOT falling, every run. if you wanna learn to sw up on a rail you have to understand that the rail is just a tool for doin tricks. sliding a rail is no longer considered as "doing a trick," if you know what i mean... rails are just a tool for preforming tricks. just as doing an air with a grab isnt impressive anymore in relation to spinning etc... because the jump is just a tool... i first learned how to do a backside sw up longboarding ( as stupid as it sounds its similar in comfurt). cruising down a hill relatively teh same speed as when i would jib a rail. id rotate my upper body first (shoulders) because i found it easiest and when i committed my body to that direction of rotation, POP, and then let your lower body follow. you wont have to rotate your lower body very far to keep yourself from falling and looking very much like a normal bs sw up... you'll find its a very natural motion if you bring your upper body around frst and force your lower body to make a relatively small rotation, less than 90 degrees definitely. you'll figure out very fast that all you have to over come indefinitely is that small degree of rotation that will keep you from nutting on the rail and looking like a baller.
