The problem isn't my missing skill, it is simply the anxiety of failing and getting hurt.

So true, i've know how for 4 years on miniskis but im too pussy to try it on real skis

[@Offiziellermax]

Did it this season, was as easy as described. Stomped it first try✌🏼

[@Nattti]

@@Offiziellermax nice, im just waiting the winter break in finland so i can go skiing. I will try then too!

[@Offiziellermax]

As a mogul skier I found this so helpful as I’ll be advancing to ski jumps next season !! I’ve been training in moguls for 6 years and feel it’s time to switch things up!

[@sadestsskeloten3594]

thx man this rly helped me up my game!

[@mattmozey113]

Whenever I attempt it I always go 90 degrees and fall sideways

[@Finnsoft]

Me too. I want to learn this so bad! :(

[@mountaineering-v7s]

So I can do this jump easy whithout twintips...but im not looking back while im landing. Is this a problem? Because I want to learn more difficult jumps.

[@lanceyuzhang5370]

how to absorb the impact at landing? I had my hand dragged on the snow basically every time landing bigger jumps.

[@triggeredwehraboomachinegu6858]

Learn forward

[@brandtn6948]

it looks so simple but when you try it you just fail, but im probablt not trying hard enough

[@SEANTSEANT]

this guy reminds me of connor mcdavid so much

[@alvindahlen9938]

I’m around 180 cm (5,9) and I have a pair of twin tips that are 178 cm (5,8). I find it really hard to do a 180 and I often land when I’m at 90 degrees. Is it something wrong with my techniques? Are my skiis to long? Thanks beforehand!

[@michaelbarth4040]

Your skies are a little long but You can defanitly do it (they size up twin tips to account for the tip and tail). If you feel like you arent getting around to the 180, go on flat groud and try spinning as many times as possible in one jump. You will quiclky learn that more "preloading" or "twisting before you jump" you do, the more you will spin. On the slopes you can apply this by twisting your arms and upperbody before you take off. Make sure you twist as hard as you can on the lip of the jump. A small jump will help you get around compared to doing it flat. Just experiment and dont give up on it.

[@alvindahlen9938]

Thanks for the help!

[@ec1005]

Dog my skis are taller then me and I can 180 flat and 3 off a side hit

[@gulwhwlvehekhhh4274]

You are not 5,9 if you are 180 cm tjen your 5,11

[@benjaminmusher5123]

Wowzer! I really enjoyed that video man. Thanks for the tutorial! I'll make sure to learn practice and perfect my skiing skills!!! Toodles!

[@tomsozolins486]

Can i actually do it without freestyle skis but with regular, because with regular skis i can ride backwards

[@jung-gilllee7622]

Is there a problem with using Inside Edge for 180? I always use inside edge to approach 180 And I feel more comfortable with that.

[@ellakurm6781]

As I'm developing in freestyle with skis now, I am going to try a 180 for my first trick, but is this easier to learn than a 360?

[@Schluis-ss2wq]

Maybe, it´s less rotation and clean 180s are the fundamentals for a 360

[@garfieldfan3892]

much easier you can twist a 180

[@ondrejsobol7106]

Is it big deal when i don t have freestyle skis????

[@alexfelts3104]

how big should the jump be if i want to go for it.

[@ashe_xox]

I’m no expert in 180s, but I’ve had success practicing on either park jumps with 10 foot gaps or no gap. It’s also good to practice at the end of halfpipes and on side hits(merging trails, sides of trails). Side hits make you need to have an active edge, which is good. If you don’t have a half pipe where you go, try it on smaller side hits before building up to park jumps.

[@nolpa4594]

Keep up :)

[@mountain2366]

Hey man just wondering do need town tips to 180 or is it possible with normal skis?

[@ashe_xox]

It’s just fine with non-twin tips, It’s just easier to spin and ski switch with twin tips.

[@BruceXuHasADream]

@@ashe_xox is that because twin tips are lighter?

[@benoconnell7012]

really helpful

[@loxii_0778]

ill try it now, see you soon

[@alekcorriveau3418]

Any tips on landing switch on steeper or bigger jumps

[@alekcorriveau3418]

@@SkiAddiction ok thanks I’ll definitely look into it.

[@heekhook1180]

[@heekhook1180]
