What is it?

I'm too busy skiing to really care or know what all the tricks are...

Is this just taking off and landing switch without doing much in between?

there not too bad. make sure your comfortable hitting jumps switch, then go off it switch and dont look back untill after you are in the air (ie, not touching the snow at all). try and look back as late as possible tho and you got it.

My fav trick. Bunch of us second year of High North conned JF to try a Zero spin twister/twister/spread on the big table. He ate s**t hard first attempt. Half hour later after sitting down he stomps it like was nothing. He became my all time fav skier after that.

Huh? What planet u from? Twister is old school mogul trick,skis 90 degrees. Since JF used to ski bumps all time thought would b funny for him to do it in a Zero spin.

Mike Atkinson invented that trick, or at least claims to have invented it.
