Replying to The old backseat landing thing
So i went on a trip this weekend to 7springs and they actually had a couple big (at least for PA, like 25 foot flats) kickers. ive hit tables this size before, but usually with more of a launch takeoff than a kicker; like by the end of the lip youre getting launched with alot more vert then distance. So some of my boarder friends went first and didnt even get close to clearing the flat, so i decided to go bigger and just not speed check. landing about 3/4 of the way down the landing on my back, i realized that i really suck and that i always land backseat on big shit. i try to lean forward as much as i can, but i feel like im gonna fall on my face when i do.
any hints on not landing backseat, yardsaleing, looking like a dueche skier with more balls then skill, etc. advice. that one time kinda psyched me out for the rest of the day on that kicker and i never allowed myself to get enough speed to clear the flat. i actually landed not backseat then, but thats just cause i landed on the flat, not the landing.
