K-Fed Masterclass | How To Front Swap Back 2 on Rails

The K-Fed is a classic rail trick made up of a front swap into a back 2 out. In this tutorial, Ryan breaks down exactly how to build a solid K-Fed step by step, starting with the right features and progressing into proper rail execution.

You’ll learn how to use downhill ski heel pressure to initiate a strong front swap, how to stay stacked and balanced on the rail, and how to set your body up for a clean back 2 out. The same movements are practiced on snow first so you can understand the feeling before taking it to rails.

If you’re working on front swaps, back 2s, or linking rail tricks together, this breakdown will help you add consistency and control.
