I just wanted to see how other people felt about when they are guniea piggin a jump or just going big and u are in the air knowing u are gonna overshoot it. To me thats one of the worst feelings...just knowing u are going to eat shit hard and not being able to do anything about it. This also occurs of couse when casing a jump but of couse its not the same.

i was in aikido too back in the day, casing still hurts though. on overshoots, rolling down the windows is the only way to go

whoever said the thing about not overshooten but landing way far down and ur legs feeling like jelly but it dosnt hurt i can agree with. at atitash there was a 60 footer last year and i kept almost overshooten it but not and i thought i was so i just kinda got limp in the air but when i hit he snow it wasnt bad so i just stuck it being all limp...and basically all im trying to say is it felt dope

this is probably a dumb question but what do you guys mean by rolling down the windows?

moving ur arms in a circlular motion to try to regain ur balance, its a reflex of ur body i think.

haha yeah it is, you gotta be perfect or close to it in black bear, but it is always fun to watch the snowboarders case stuff, and when they overshoot it they like land and then all of the sudden their legs just shoot up into the air haha.

i cased one jump doing a 3, and like my legs compressed and it like shot me up like a damn spring and i just got worked on like the flat after the landing. annd i overjumped on of our hits that was like 20 feet, and i jumped about 30...yeah that kinda hurt, i smashed my wrist bad and it killed for like a week.

Overshooting things is an entirley different emotion you cant explain. Ive overshot a 50 footer and had a complete conversation with myself, i was doing a 180 and was like"Oh shit, well there goes the landing, man this is going to suck, oh ya, wish i would have speed chekced, then i think i hope my friends have a good view of this" then crash. Luckily i havent been hurt that bad an i hope i never will.

in the midwest our one jump at our hill is different everyday u hit it. from melting and freezing and melting and freezing. it sucks. everyday u have to guinea pig it at least once, and this year like mid feb. i went into it for the first hit and wasnt trying to get any speed, just kinda taking a couple wide turns into it. I actually thought i was going slow so i skated up it and ended up over shooting our like 20 footer by a good 20 feet or more. But what makes it bad is that the landings already really flat but on top of that its icy and since i was skating i got thrown off or something and started going back seat halfway through the air. My only thought was "god damn why'd i tell my friend to put the camera down." I landed flat on my back and couldnt breathe for 30 secs or so. my back still kinda hurts from that, and it made me really hesitant the rest of the season.





I ski at the crappiest hill ever...
