How to Jump on Skis - In 4 EASY Steps

[@lennymcmillion]

When you pop on flat ground it's totally okay for your front tips to not even come off the ground because when you go off a jump, you need to be "nose down" in relation to the jump. This way you'll land on flat ground or on the downslope. Basically, if you're flat or flat ground, you'll land on your butt on a jump where it's sloping back. Good video

What about when only the front comes up and not the back?

[@sammyratliff4973]

@@christianmcneil6523 ur weight is not forward then

What about if you land on flat grund then it doesent have to be like that

[@FLiPpiNpRidE]

@@pangpangpanqsq your legs and joints are not going to have a good time then, you should be landing on a downward slope if you are going off a jump lol

This is a great, easy-to-understand video. Jumps have looked so cool and intimidating, but I finally feel ready for it. Also, love how the video suddenly goes from you showing us to the "cameraman" wanting to try it, and then you giving him pointers! That was really helpful, and unexpected in the best way.

[@happykillmore349]

Brilliant description of the physics in easy to understand dialog.

[@johnburden4925]

Really helpful. Thank you so much for this video. Can't wait to try it out with more precision :)

[@debcperricaaprn720]

Great instruction video. Handy tips to make skiing experience peak! Thanks JZ

[@shawnnelson8674]

This is great thank you for sharing! Really good example for people to continue to suck at skiing!

7:14 - "just be clean" - AWESOME! I will TRY to be clean! Saying CLEAN is what makes jumps work! You are the best, ... Best avise EVER!!! Clean...

[@thilde007]

You should ask for a refund

[@dzimpact]

This "pop" is what I refer to as launching. It can be a little pop or a bit leap. In either case, you want to launch off the ramp because that launch creates your vertical orientation. Not launching will result in your skis zipping forward while the rest of you watches your tips slowly go above your head. I recommend against doing that unless the goal is to perform a back flip.

BANGER I’m gonna be at belleayre on Sunday wondering if you guys will be there?

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

We will actually be in Killington VT on monday, going up the night before

[@wildercounts6832]

@@skiwithgenerationsnow nooooooooo I looked for tickets that day but it was totally sold out hope u guys have fun tho

[@mathias2410]

Great tutorial, simple and clear! Being a twin tip kiteboarder I really want to press my heels, need to get away from it, leads to bad crashes. Looks so easy but it isn't.

[@cherylzocco8441]

These guys r cool!! Very helpful hints!

[@marshallkairo6608]

i know I am quite randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to watch new series online?

[@rylankody8863]

@Marshall Kairo Try flixzone. Just search on google for it =)

[@noahdblanchard6951]

Hey I got in question do you want to point down or lean forward when jumping that I was not sure about?

[@garrettkim2429]

This is a great video! The weight on the heels tip might fix my issue. My skis are relatively short and center mounted. Every now and then I'll pop off a jump and feel that my ankles and toes want to point downward too far. This leaves me terrified that my tips are going to snag. When I jump outside of skiing, I usually take off from my toes and they end up pointed down in the air. I think that's what's messing me up.

[@harrisMujanovic]

the oldest videos are the most helpful

[@GuyNamedRob]

Agreed

[@NoExperienceRequired]

Great video, but also - what brand and model is your helmet?

[@glennocean1586]

7:02 - "you talk to somebody" - super useful! thank u verimutch!

[@HenryBailey-wn2hk]

Where is this i am thinking of skiing here

[@molinnn]

should have watched this before i tried to figure it out on my own and tore my knee from a bad landing

[@C4X3Music]

So as i understand this, hitting ski jumps can be summarized as "if you're about to fall, jump"

[@scottgreen3807]

That’s also how to dig them tips into the trough holes of bumps fer POP in yer turn.

[@HenryAustinAvon]

What mountain?

[@scottgreen3807]

I just waxed and sharpened, so look out tomorrow.

[@jimmyjafo2476]

[@Antus1235]

What is this helmet?

[@jacobzocco1458]

Giro Emerge (spray painted :))

[@mikearge23]

6:51 yeah but you didn’t pop at all on that jump. Kinda just let your speed take you.

[@Skkimaa]

[@glennocean1586]

Teaching and doing are two DIFFERENT things, bud! If you are good at doing this - stick with it! I didn't get nothin' from this vid, dude...

[@skiwithgenerationsnow]

You know what you should do? Maybe you should make a video about how to jump on skis, if you think you could do a better job. We will probably do another version of this video this season and make the explanation clearer. Great thing about youtube though, is you are getting this for free, so you can watch as many “How to Jump” videos as you want and compare different people’s explainations
