I've been thinking about this trick for a while and I think I'm going to try it once I get back to some jumps. The only thing I'm worried about is catching my tips coming off the lip. Anybody have any advice to avoid that?

What the fuck does that even mean?

OP, maybe dull your edges, less chance of catching. Just huck your meat though, that way there isn't really much risk anyway.

just make sure you're not throwing before you leave the jump and your edged shouldn't catch

I can switch rodeo and cork, I was just worried about catching my edge the other way. I know my tricks. Thanks all you other guys for the help and support, I will come back soon with footage!

Did it a couples of times on water ramps, but haven't tried it on snow yet. You realy need a good pop so your skis don't catch up on the jump. Doing switch backflips first will help with the pop.

The trick is actually pretty mellow once you do it a couple times. If you want, you can ease your way into it throwing a little more flippy each time. You will get more and more comfortable with it each time.
