this is a trick that naturally comes around honestly i think if you can do it very very easily on a trampoline it translates to snow pretty good- watch you dont throw it too early as in all switch tricks but for some reason since your shoulder is going down your one nose tends to drag a little, if you can do cab 5's and can easily do it on a tramp you should be puttin it down but for me it seems like kinda a blind rotation

It's really not that blind. You see your landing when you first take off and again when you come around. Just make sure you get a solid pop, and its really a pretty easy trick that comes around on its own.

what you want to do is hit the jump switch, flip, then 180 then land on the snow again. the most important part is hitting the snow first with your skis.... the bottom of the skis.

I can't bring myself to do it on skis, because I don't want to do it off of something big, but I don't think I will get the rotation in on a smaller feature

seriously, just try it. you won't die. worst case senario you face plant on a smaller jump. just try it in spring slush and see what happens! btw vid tape it just in case you do crash so it'll be entertaining! i bet you'll stick it thought within 2-4 tries.
