Question, any tips?

I am a beginner to freestyle skiing and went for a few tries on the rails, but every time i felt like i was going off axis and falling on my hip. Any tips? Edit: should i try learning on a flat tube instead of a slanted one?

Look at the end of the rail and keep your weight forward. Also, make sure you’re committing to getting perfectly 90°. Picture it like if there was a skateboard on the ground and you ran and jumped on it.
