How often should you pop?

So I normally pop on all my tricks but I've been watching some pros and on some of there jump tricks its looks like they barley or don't even pop almost making it look better and more smooth. So my question is do they make their pop really gradual up the jump so that it almost looks effortless or do they not pop at all because the last thing I want is my pop to look really abrupt.

It's healthy to pop at least once a day but if you find yourself uncontrollably popping or not popping for a few days at all you may need to seek medical attention.

I agree, popping looks dumb af. The best idea is to go about twice the speed you normally would, lean back a little, and coast off the lip without any leg movement.

A full body extension is necessary if you plan on getting airborne and staying in control

I prefer to lie down when hitting jumps... Way more thug than standing like one of them posers.

well a lot of tricks need pop, but for backflips you for sure should NOT pop. Just lean back and really sling it, it will come around way more nicely and you will look way better in the air.

Are you being serious because honestly that's partly why I made this like is it easier you just float it off the jump rather than pop?

Pop is like salt. Just a dash here and there.

Quality Sarcasm, but with all the gullible kids on this site that's a dangerous joke.

Nah I was being sarcastic, please, please pop hard, then set on backflips especially. You really want to pop with every trick, it will give you more time, help you clear the knuckle and make all tricks look better.

Just make it more gradual up the lip if you're really that concerned about your pop.
