Only jump as high as you need to when getting onto the rail. Try to glide on smoothly instead of jumping up and landing on it.
When you get on the rail, your skis should be perpendicular to the rail with the center of your boots over it and your feet shoulder width apart. Your head and shoulders should be facing in the direction you are traveling. Make sure that your weight is balanced evenly on both feet so you’re not forward or back.
As you slide, focus your eyes on the end of the rail. This will give you the best chance of making it all the way.
When you get to the end of the rail turn your shoulders in the direction that you want to exit (i.e. forward or switch) Use a small pop to clear the rail and stick the landing.
