    @ttttttttttc Před 6 lety +1

    3:01 did you say it's back-mounted and good for dropping? I've also heard that center-mounted skis are good for dropping because of the long tail for landing. Which one is correct? Thanks!

    • @StompItTutorials
      @StompItTutorials  Před 6 lety +3

      I would definitely say that back mounted is better so that you can land aggressively with shin pressure without risking that the noses sink and you do a tomahawk. What you are talking about is probably going to help you if you always land backseat to stabilize bad landings but you want to land correct and well I assume so do not centre mount them for this reason. But you may want to put the binding further forwards for other reasons like skiing lots of BC booters landing and taking of switch.

  • @LeadHase
    @LeadHase Před 6 lety

    I think one HUGE tip is to keep your hands in front of you and stay tucked in the air. Helps you keep your weight forward. Don’t land backseat! You absolutely will a bunch of times tho, we all did. Get used to your skis and how deep the landing is, they play a large roll in the angle you have to land at. Too deep and you’ll tomahawk from leaning forward a lot. Especially on skinnier skis. Just get out there and have no fear, if you’re centered off the lip it’s really hard to actually hurt yourself..you just yard sale!

    • @ColoradoStreaming
      @ColoradoStreaming Před 5 lety +5

      Your legs and core need more conditioning. Do lots of squats and stair jumps. Pick a stairset and jump up 3-4 stairs at a time while keeping your eyes level and spot your landing with your peripheral vision. Also, make sure to always keep your hands in front of you.

    Dropped a decent cliff yesterday and thought I was landing perfectly, staying forward as if I were skiing the slope, but I got thrown forward, right ski popped loose and ofc I proceeded to roll down the hill. The snow was like soft packed. I feel like landing a little bit on the tails is probably better than being too far forward in that scenario, no?

    • @durrrrburger

      yes, finding a good balance is key but landing a little bit in the backseat is better than too far forward.

      Before last season they said there might be "La Niña" which would help snow this year. Last year in Grenoble there was much less snow.

      think he's saying his skis are mounted rear of centre so he doesn't need to land backseat in order not to dive into the powder
