| sometimes when i get big air i come down wrong and get real F...ed up. but most every time i come down i hit pretty flat with my tail and kinda roll to the nose real fast, but it feels like hitting a wall and it kills my knees and sometimes the shock hurts my hip flexers, so if anyone would like to debreif me on how to land properly or tell me what im doing wrong, any little bit would help me tremendously. thanks. |

| nubcake, it helps to land down the second wake and not in the flats. If you want to land in the flats or anywhere actually, try to land with your weight even on both feet and bend your knees like if you were jumping down a few stairs. |

Definentally try to land on 2nd wake--feels like landing on pillows compared to the flats. But if you must land on the flats, it helps me sometimes to try to (slightly) land with my back leg first, then the board rolls to hit the front leg---it is a little softer. Bending knees is very key as well. _________________ Don't listen to advice from people who can't land that trick. My list:
HS+TS w2w jumps, HS+TS w2w 180, backroll
working on: I don't know, so happy I just landed backroll! |
