I was browsing and couldn't find any advice on how to properly lay down on a box (I want to try it on a wide pill but I don't think there will be much difference). I was thinking something along the lines of getting on the feature, (idk how to do this without hurting my hip lol) laying down, and coming off laying down into a drop landing where I would land upright. Any tips or advice?

Insane

do it like a baseball slide essentially. go off the takeoff, kick your legs out and try and match the slope of the box so you dont bonk ur hip hard. also body slide is the name of the trick

^Was going to say baseball slide too. Maybe start off going slow, crouch low on the box and just tip back onto the side of your butt.

Pro

definitely don’t go straight from popping to your hip. just do a regular slide but stay low, then just fall back. Depending on the way the pill is set you might have to use your momentum to come back up and land properly. don’t over complicate it
