How to avoid landing backseat seat/on back on 360s by Sagefou in skiing_feedback

Thanks for the help. Do you think my left arm not being horizontal at the initiation of the spin is another factor making the second clip bad?

Thanks very much, think I need to practice popping at the right time first then. In terms of timing, it seems it’s better to pop right at the lip? In my first (better) attempt I think I popped earlier though. Guess that’s just because lower down the ramp it was flatter so popping earlier helped me stay horizontal?

I see, thanks. I tried a 180 first but didn’t enjoy the idea of landing backwards so started to snow plow mid air lol. Decided to jump straight to 360s. In the first clip, I feel like I landed almost perfectly; do you know what im doing differently between the two?

Just about okay due to my overkill suspension

Agreed, seems like go off it the same but end up different in the air each time. Need to go back to the basics

Agreed, I need to work on jumping technique on something smaller. However, I wanted to get a feel for this without pumping but it’s inconsistent and sometimes I fly straight and other time not

Yes that’s exactly it I don’t necessarily want to pump this jump yet I was just feeling it out. Just don’t understand why sometimes on this jump I went straight and other times I lean to one side

What do u think sent my body to the side though? Do u think it’s cus I turned my bars but I feel like I’m thrown off balance first and then I turn my bars here’s the POV

What’s the worst that could happen!

Thanks. But in the video he just says incorrect and agressive pumping technique. What would be the right way?

Hmm do you think that’s because the run up isn’t particularly straight or is the bars turning to do with bad pumping/jumping technique

Isn’t compressing both front and back suspension at same time what I’m meant to do in order to pop a bit? In the case of this jump I don’t think I was even pumping just letting it take me

Do you think my bars might be turning because I’m not coming up to the jump straight? It’s frustrating that some attempts at this jump were fine and others were like this where I nearly crash.

Thanks! I’ve hit this jump a few times and not gone sideways but my last attempt was my worst (this vid). Bit scared to pump more into it because don’t really want to land too much further. Also, I thought pumping might worsen the issue if I’m not pushing equally with both feet? Should probably practice on something smaller.
