Or just huck it on snow. For the first few I threw them way to flippy. You have to dip a lot less than you would think.

Whatever you feel comfortable with. Big jumps will be more scary, but you can set it slower, and have more time to correct in the air. Small jumps, it's all about how hard you can huck to get it around.

its easier to huck it and just make it around on a small jump than throwing it slow and control it on a larger jump but in the long run the larger jump would be better.

Do a seven on a jump you like then go for a 7 safety grab on that jump and dip your shoulder to the side as you go off the jump. Its more spin than flip.

yea this works real well. leading safety grab forces you to dip that shoulder.
