So i've been trying drops lately like around 10 feet or so and i've noticed that once I get above a certain height...(12 feet) landing backseat just happens ( when its not into pow obvs).  I know the pros try and do it of huge cliffs but is that just for taking the impact properly?

pros usually have powder landings of huge cliffs and its also usually steep so unless they have rockered skis its hard not catch your tips and shoot forward but on rockered skis youd prolly just flip onto yur back if you landed backseat
