20 bux, youre looking donw, keep your head turning over your shoulder.
today i was learning truck drivers and started to look at my skis instead of over my shoulder and started landing way backseat. keep your head cocked & locked son... youll get it. and smile, crashing makes you more attractive to lady snowboarders.

360s are not hard on small jumps
wind up slightly
twist your shoulders first and keep them flat. turn your head with it and spot your landing
after you spot your landing don't worry about your skis they'll come around if the jump is big enough. Some people can throw them off of flat ground they spin so fast.
