so you flap your arms in the air? I would just suggest extending your legs into the landing, and absorbing with your knees as you land...i think you should just watch other jibbers in the park..that helps me

You need to spot your landing and hold ur eyes there, watch your feet as they hit the ground, with your hands up and out in front of your body. once you land just stand up and say, 'yes, i ski like Mikeal.'

uh, do a grab or something in the air, so you arent concentrating on how huge you are going, and maybe get 'air sense' on smaller jumps

NOT A GODDAMN THING, cuz JFK mussilini, and abbot and costello are fuckin dead.....they're fuckin dead! and dead people give less than a shit about the sanctity of life, only living people care about it, so the whole thing developes out of a bias point of view. -George Carlin

i jump off the end of the jump and land like i was jumping off a ledge on flat ground - suckit up with your knees and try to say as balanced as possible while in the air. Start small and work your way up to the bigger jumps

^ what a great comment scotch. Uh. Try to spot your landing all the way through and keep pratising your big airs. That should help.
