IMO Charley Ager has the gnarliest switch landings not the best, the nimbus crew probley has the best switch pow landings, but anyone can have good switch landings in pow if the jump is good for example a smooth kicker into a perfect tranny will be way easier than a 45 foot cliff switch landing

Charley Ager stomps some huge cliffs switch in revolver, pretty sure theres even a 9 of a 30-40 foot cliff.

Such a fuckin nutjob. They're not the best looking but sure as hell do the trick
