its just gonna take you a little while to get used to... its not natural for humans to be flying through the air so just try going off the jump centered and balanced and then make sure you have enough speed to land on the landing. Try to kind of tuck in the air or if you can do a saftey grab which is just grabbing under the binding of your ski... that will help you stay stable in the air. S

Basically hit the jump centered with enough speed to land on the landing and if you can do a grab it will help you stay stable but its just gonna take a little while to get used to and feel comfortable
