Switch ups

[Nicholas.]

hey, so i have been trying to get switch ups on flat rails and boxes lately but i cant do it. i can do it on any kink pretty much, but without the kink i feel like i cant hop up enough to get around 180.

any tips on bending the knees or something?

what are you trying to switch up just 5050's?

make sure you turn head and shoulders

if you are in front board whip your head around your shoulder so you can look at what you are doing and hop off your nose/tail as hard as you can and you will come around to back board

thats the funnest and sickest switch up by far

when you first get on the rail, turn your sholders the way you want to spin but keep looking forward. when you want to switchup, pop off whichever end of teh board thats more on the rail and keep the knees bent. you should be able to figure it out from there.
