What could I try on an airbag?

The mountain I usually go to is getting an airbag for a week and I was wondering what I could try out on it. Any ideas? I've never jumped onto an airbag before.

I tried a backflip a bunch of times when my local hill had the air bag, Also did 360/540/720.

My friend triple backed the airbag at our resort.
Ended up clearing the bag & stomping it on the otherside.

im sure it varies setup to setup but dude the one ive hit, you could land bent in half on your neck and not even feel one unit of pain

so in that case, anything from a straight air to SSX tricks, take your pick...

more reasonably though, you should try tricks you think you can do and can visualize, but are scared to try onto snow

so if you think you can rodeo but have never had the balls to try it, learn/practice them on the airbag and then if you want you can take it to real jumps

Fuck it and huck it, but if you have a chance to get some tramp practice in I would definitely do that. Then backies become muscle memory

I had never tried a backflip on a tramp, but attempted it on the air bag 5 times, couldnt quite make it because of having the flu.

don't smack your head on the lip of the jump. Throw it with your hips not your whole body. Also don't wear goggles when using the air bag.

If you fall on your face you will bruise your face with them on. A buddy of mine sent it hard with goggles on and had cool goggle frame bruise on his face.

you could just as easily do that while skiing anywhere else..

to the op, try cork 7's and rodeo 5's and backflips.

Take off all your clothes and see if you can gap it. Would be a reason for this thread to exist.

Pretty simple. What can I drink out of a cup? Water, beer, bleach, whatever I'm feeling.


Play it safe, get weird, or get straight reckless. Do what you want.
