I always see skateboarders adapt since they have fell so much and they can take a fall without hitting their head by rolling and shit

Anyone got any skiing clips of this??

A good thing to learn is NOT to stick your arms and legs out. When you fall, shoulder the fall. If you end up sticking your limbs out to try and break your fall you will just end up tearing tendons and dislocating things.

I can ditch the skis while I fall to avoid knee injuries.
There is no real way to fall; when you go down, you're gravity's bitch.

Not true. Anybody can get unlucky, but there's def an art of falling. Some of the park kids take some fucking legit slams everyday, and a bunch of smaller falls. Then you have people that tip over on the bunny hill and get wrecked.

There are different methods for every sport but you def learn what to do and what not to do. It becomes second nature but you're doing things to make yourself come out legit whether you're actively thinking about it or not.

Learning to fall = Learning to FAIL

Do you want to set yourself up for failure?

They both said it. In the end after they use the rocket to fly up in the air. Woody says "Buzz you're flying!" Then Buzz says "This isn't flying this is falling with style"
