Hey mate! What’s that kit? Love the pink!

you are making snow addiction great again

So many "aha" moments and it's just the first one. Looking forward to this series big time! :)

That’s awesome!!! Many more of those moments to come💪

For me focusing on keeping the board in contact with the snow as long as possible was the difficult part. What did the trick was to imagine I actively push gently against the takeoff. I now realized that micro ollies is what I actually do.

That’s awesome! We actually talk all about pushing against the jump in the next video, it’s a great way to visualize it🙌🏻

I believe the notion about slight toe pressure before taking off to not be completely flat base is one of the most important aspects of hitting a jump. And honestly this somewhat contradicts what Nev has always been saying previously -- his instructions were that you _should_ be completely flat base when jumping. I've tried doing so and my experience was that when flat base you have a serious risk that the board starts sliding underneath you, potentially leading to edge catch on the lip, which ends very painfully. Gripping the snow with your toe edge on the contrast makes for a much more stable ride. Super glad that Taevis validated my own observations here!

Happy that I was able to clear this up! Luckily Nev gave me the platform to go super deep into jumping techniques so we should be able to cover everything more thoroughly then ever before!!! Thanks for the comment and support 😁

I've had exactly the same experience. I was going flat off jumps and feeling so out of control. Its just last session I tried going off slightly on my toe edge and it's a world of difference.

It might be related to a board's contour - you need less or almost no toe edge pressure on true camber

best jump instruction video on youtube

These videos help so much

Let's award Taevis with like, because not everyone will overshoot or land on a knuckle specialy

Damn. Wish you would have done this vid last week. Lol. Did sbx finals yesterday and lost air control in the final run at the final jump. Over-shot, went too big and boom. Getting exays shortly😂 Make some air control vids or more jump vids please!

We hope your all good! We have another way more detailed popping video dropping soon! Heal up and we hope you get it next time💪

Dang, hearing about micro ollies and coasting is building confidence that i can just go try some jumps on my next day out. I figured I had to be able to do massive ollies before i should try jumps.

Glad we were able to clear that up for you!!! Good luck with your jumping journey. If you ever need help check out ADDICTION+

Can you guys do a more detailed video about carving up jumps when spinning? Maybe talk about things like torsional board flex, rear knee, and foot engagement? It seems like every video tells you to carve or engage your edge up the lip of the jump, but it never talks about the intricacies of doing so. I believe there is much more going on with your high-level jumpers in these setup carves than just changing edges. I feel like some of these tiny differences in body, foot, knee, and leg position help you stay stacked above your board and may be one reason some people have such a hard time, particularly with frontside and cab spins. I could be wrong. It's just a thought.

We will be covering that once we get to spinning in this series! As the series progresses we will go deeper and deeper into these movements💪 This is the first of 17 videos, we’re we cover every aspect of jumping for every trick up to 1080s both Frontside and backside. We go deepest into set,up carved on the 360 and 720 videos.

Is this the one I’ve been waiting for? 😬😬😬

LFG!

Is better to use micro ollies than pop with both feet on any jumps ? On very small jumps I use normal ollie to get more height, but on bigger jumps, I just use pop with both feet because don"t need ollie to get high

Nothing to see on the Lip, keep your spot forward ready to see your landing once you start leaving the lip:)

But there is something so funny, YIMING SU come from china, his teacher comes from japan, then he made the video about landing, in the video he said we should make sure our tail landing first, this is the most stable way to landing, then I go watch a lot of videos like Xgame, a lot of landing like he said. So if we hitting size M or L jump, we need use which one.

@SnowboardAddiction

You will see a lot of tail first landings in contests because the athletes are pushing themselves and need to land, but it’s a sign of mistake. It can lead to snapping boards and many other issues. It happens from time to time but should only purposefully be done in powder. Especially if you are trying to land switch with a blind landing, landing rail first will make stomping much more difficult. We highly highly recommend focusing on landing both feet at the same time🙌🏻 The tail first landing is called a airplane landing, so we do know of it, but we don’t agree it’s proper form. And you will see in contest when it’s used the trick is scored lower. Our goal here is to teach every trick in the most proper way possible, so we will be using the 2 footed landing in every video:) If we get a lot of comments asking this, We can make a video on all the perks and downsides of the airplane style landings, because they do have a place. Just not in this series✌️

Its not the jump that is hard.... its the landing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@SnowboardAddiction I strongly disagree, if you can't land, you can't jump. I am speaking from experience lol The secret is knowing how to land, because I can take off just fine but always wipe out on the landing. even like a foot high, I am just shitty.

@Dluiogbre

@@A-Shitty-Snowboarderyou are likely not landing because your takeoff is poor. Typically, your landing is dependent on your takeoff, as that’s the same position you will be when you land. As he describes in the video, you can literally just stay in a good position going off the lip and you should be able to effortlessly land if going the correct speed (at least of small jumps). My first few jumps when just coasting for example, you barely notice the landing if hitting the takeoff correctly.

@@Dluiogbreexactly!!! Most people’s issues on landings come from take-offs. Panic can also get you. So get a good take-off and stay confident 🙌🏻
