It's so like Odd when people do full on educational videos... in the middle of no where ontop of a mountain with perfect audio and video quality. like I for a person never having skied at a real mountain. Can we all appreciate how he uses words like "superlame" or "really boring" for painfull experiences. ;)
This was honestly very helpful. I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and this is the single best comprehensive explanation I've heard. Hopefully I can put this into practice and correct what I was doing wrong.
Great vid! Another helpful tip I have found is to bash the ends of your pole grips together after popping. This helps get your arms forward and therefore body in the correct position to stomp.
Great video as always! If you're dropping big enough to require a backslap, chances are you know what you're doing if you haven't hurt yourself already!
In my opinion, you are such a funny guy. You do make me laugh and raise my spirits with your comments. On a serious note, I do agree with you on all your points about dropping... Really, great stuff.
Last week I dropped a little rock cliff and had a neck injury. My error was that I landed on a flat powder surface, so I got stuck and absorbed the fall with my neck. Fortunately I'm alright now and I've learnt from my error.
Thanks so much for your series. I've been watching consistently. This vid is exactly what I've been looking for. Quick question...your skis... What is your ht/wt and what length scrapper were you on? Keep up the great work on the vids...very informative and thorough
Wish I watched this before I started dropping cliffs... I got lucky on my first few but then I landed one all the way back seat. Knees to the face, ouch! Haven’t done it in a while, but I miss it!
Haha. This may sound silly but by the time I watched myself saying that I had forgotten about ever saying it, so I had a great shame full laugh. I thought I would cut it out but luckily it stayed so you got a good laugh.
Just dropped 5 feet the other day on accident. Came off a tree run that looked like it dropped in but I was caught by surprise when it just disappeared beneath my skis and I dropped 😂 landed it but my heart came out my mouth
I love this channel and it's vibe SOOOO MUCH! I'm really inspired by you and the fact that you were self taught. The snow here in Nevada is pretty bad but I plan on getting better anyway, thanks to you. I hope you keep making videos because they help so much. The music and vibe of your videos are also great, the videos are entertaining even if I'm nowhere near advanced enough to learn a cork 3 or something. thanks so much!
I did it with 3 snowboards just this past weekend, it was so easy for them, I can ski trees when not packed tightly or a steep slope but a combination of that makes it really hard, it’s such a blast though.
this is a very good video the only thing lacking is a little more explanation of what he is doing with his hands. So watch closely and you will see what he is doing. In one part he shows you how to move your hands forward down slope this is the same thing the top downhillers are doing - very good instruction
Thanks once more for a great vid I have been dropping cliffs and other great stuff for years but just learn to keep my arms in from your vid makes total sense 🧐
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!
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?
The problem is you never know if you're going to sink or move FWD how do you place you're balance when you don't know how that particular patch of snow will react?
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.
Try to get very good and comfortable with small drops, then do the same thing on middle ones... its most of the time just the brain that's holding you back :)
The reason why people are back seated is because if they are used to landing in powder like me and if you skis are below 98 under foot it’s kinda hard not to land back seat
Im not afraid of the cliffs persay im afraid of the landing after the cliffs because im skiing tight trees with 15ft cliffs which is my favorite thing to do but just still seeing that tree in the landing still scare me and i land back seated because i shift my weight in the air but thanks for the epic content and you need to come to whitewater ski resort in nelson BC thats my local hill!!!!!!! :)
How about dropping in with one foot jump? Like Seth Morrison does. Since i tried that, it's my option when the take off is tricky, narrow, etc. I love it for technical step downs, i am doing it in all speeds
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!
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.
what poles are you using. Would you happen to know anything about the g3 via poles. I was looking to get them so i could shorten them to 38 inch for park riding and 48 for powder riding. Do know of any other good adjustable poles for this. Thanks
What type of ski is the best for everything, I want to buy a pair instead of renting every time, but I don’t want to spend of 1000 dollars. I want skis that do well on groomed sloped, powder/backcountry, just a ski that can do it all
Don't drop to slow, or to fast... especially when dropping to a flat landing, you need a little bit of speed. But make sure you don't take too much, I have before, it sucks, landed straight into a mogul. Try and land on a down hill slope, but if you are dropping to a flat, or close to flat slope, make sure you don't just ski off it with no speed.

It can be helpful as long as you know your abilities. If not🤕 .
Facts
"Knee to the face, black eye, broken goggles... that's boring" LOL Love this guy. "A lot of people like backslapping"... too funny.
The comedic value of these videos is almost worth the watch by itself.
*drops a few meters onto a rock
Says, "It was boring"
Yup...what a bad day...drops it on a rock, gets a black eye...boring...
Want to trade days with...anyone?
The dislikes are from the cliffs
I love these freeride series! Keep them rolling 👌
Not sure why, but your voice is just so soothing. I’m locked up in this endless pandemic learning about cliffs I won’t be able to jump anytime soon...
I really like ur freeride (not terrainpark) tutorials. Keep it up man!
It's so like Odd when people do full on educational videos... in the middle of no where ontop of a mountain with perfect audio and video quality. like I for a person never having skied at a real mountain.

Hit a sick drop today super pumped, the feeling is so good! Yewww!!!!
This was honestly very helpful. I've been trying to figure this out for a while now and this is the single best comprehensive explanation I've heard. Hopefully I can put this into practice and correct what I was doing wrong.
Same! I was trying to actually like jump instead of just extend and let my momentum carry me. Can't wait to try this out.
Great vid! Another helpful tip I have found is to bash the ends of your pole grips together after popping. This helps get your arms forward and therefore body in the correct position to stomp.
Do you mean like bumping your hands together, in front of you as you hit the jump? I’m trying to get a visual
I think this is honestly the best ski instruction video I've ever seen.
"That was boring" geeks me out every time. This video has helped me drop some rocks
Great video as always! If you're dropping big enough to require a backslap, chances are you know what you're doing if you haven't hurt yourself already!
I feel like if I ever try this, I'll just end up ploffing 10 feet into the snow on my back or bouncing forward and going into a forward summersault.
In my opinion, you are such a funny guy. You do make me laugh and raise my spirits with your comments. On a serious note, I do agree with you on all your points about dropping... Really, great stuff.
Exactly What I have been up to the last winters, perfect!
Instructions unclear; I am flying
Damn there a 5 y/o in here
Last week I dropped a little rock cliff and had a neck injury. My error was that I landed on a flat powder surface, so I got stuck and absorbed the fall with my neck. Fortunately I'm alright now and I've learnt from my error.
Plentziatik you must have a big ass head
Yikes. Yea, no landings onto flat surfaces.
Just broke my back on flat frozen snow after dropping a 15 ft cliff, stupid me, 2 vertebraes fractures I'll learn from my error too
Thanks so much for your series.
I've been watching consistently.

Haha. This may sound silly but by the time I watched myself saying that I had forgotten about ever saying it, so I had a great shame full laugh. I thought I would cut it out but luckily it stayed so you got a good laugh.
Was hoping for this video! 🙌🏼
Danke schön 🤙🏼
Love the content, but especially the attitude of all your videos! Always give me a laugh and makes me want to get out.

I broke my shoulder when I backslapped on a pretty big drop. Be safe out there!
Tino Lehtinen did you drop on to a flat space?
Nice drop from cornice into the slope,
very useful .thx
"clap their paws together" ahahaha
Your vids are full of gems, I love it.
Was waiting for this video. Thanks a lot bro :D Maybe a video on how to ski trees? (in powder)
Skillz just do it
i did for the first time today hahahah super fun man you just need to control your speed
I did it with 3 snowboards just this past weekend, it was so easy for them, I can ski trees when not packed tightly or a steep slope but a combination of that makes it really hard, it’s such a blast though.
Just don't hit a tree and get really good at speed checking
Would you say that you can also hit the park with these ski? Not very ambitious, just maybe 360, 540, rails, boxes ...
Please do a video on the different types of skis, and how rocker, camber, etc. works. Great videos by the way.
Mr. Stompit rocks again!
Amazing video, I Will definetly rewatch it when I go skiing. I love these freestyle videos
Perfect. Just what I needed. And your demeanor is damn good. I need like 5 ski buddies with your energy, haha.
This guy is awesomely hilarious!!!
Gonna need this for when my parents bring me skiing bc I rarely get to ski anymore
Such a good video. Now i know what i ve been doing wrong all the past years.
I Got some Black Crows Atris 2018 and they are pretty good
I love hitting big drops so fun
Now that is instructive.
Just gotta send it bro

This is huge. Always, always have your hands in front of you. I even heard of instructors getting cafeteria trays from the lodge.
Great Content learned everything in terrain park from you.
oh boi i cant fucking wait for S18/19....
Beautiful stomp
Great vid 👌🏻👍🏼👍🏼
Love this Guy! Keep em coming!
I find this so much easier on a mountain bike
I like this dude!
I'm watching this, not sure if I will do it but I'm still watching this and plan to watch how to do a 720 flip next...
remember when skiing ... Speed is your friend !! and when in doubt ... go straight .
Awesome video and thanks for listening to your community
Excellent.
You should try and do these befor half term so people in school get to do these
Nice Video man !
6:25 😂😂😂 exactly, or put on a comedy show for the crowd if you f#@k up. Amazing stuff
OMG we have the same snow pants!
This'll be nice. Going to Jämtland in 2 weeks, hoping to catch some powder :)
Can we get a vid on taking double stagers
scott everything
Can you do a video on "what size skis you should have"?
Depends on how you want to ski and what you like. I prefer a little shorter skis.
@@vkuutti2309 same
thank you, now I can go off a cliff
Sick video!! Also, late congrats on your Scott sponsorship! Could you do a video on pillows?
David Nadal scott is my favorite toilet paper! but why doesn't he use it in the videos?
TheAtomicMango same, Scott is so soft!! He might not use it cause he doesn't shit his pants on top of any cliffs....
Great Video ... Thanks a lot... What mountain were you at filming ?
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?
yes, finding a good balance is key but landing a little bit in the backseat is better than too far forward.
I feel like if I land backseat my shins get really jacked up. I've also heard landing and falling fwd messes you up less so than landing backseat.
How did you mounted your freeride ski’s? Centered or factory? Sweet tutorial!
In this video on Factory.
Keeping you’re arms forward helps too
Great video. I wish i had seen it before i dropped from nearly 2 meters height and got whiplash !😣
The problem is you never know if you're going to sink or move FWD how do you place you're balance when you don't know how that particular patch of snow will react?
Hey every time i drop a medium sized cliff i always end up sitting on my skis and then crashing, is there a way i can fix that.
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.
Try to get very good and comfortable with small drops, then do the same thing on middle ones... its most of the time just the brain that's holding you back :)
Think what makes me nervous about it, is can it hurt your back? Cuz ski jumps in New England hurt my back on the landing. But I have arthritis.
Loving the free ride videos!!!
Nice!
The reason why people are back seated is because if they are used to landing in powder like me and if you skis are below 98 under foot it’s kinda hard not to land back seat
What brand jacket/pants is this??
Im not afraid of the cliffs persay im afraid of the landing after the cliffs because im skiing tight trees with 15ft cliffs which is my favorite thing to do but just still seeing that tree in the landing still scare me and i land back seated because i shift my weight in the air but thanks for the epic content and you need to come to whitewater ski resort in nelson BC thats my local hill!!!!!!! :)
What was that background song called? The one during the opening scene?

Can u do like a 20+ foot dropping vid please. I hit a 25 into powder this season and id like to know how to go bigger without hurting myself :)
i love this videos but please a backflip tutorial
is backslapping not really dangerous for the acl?
What about pole whacking?
Wouldn't going over the rock... be the shortcut?
Where did you get the SCOTT jacket and Pants, I can't seem to find em in the US!
Were did you buy your clothes?🔥🔥
Pretty sure that's Helly Hansen
Sorry It's "Scott"
My advice is just full send
what poles are you using. Would you happen to know anything about the g3 via poles. I was looking to get them so i could shorten them to 38 inch for park riding and 48 for powder riding. Do know of any other good adjustable poles for this. Thanks

All mountain twin tips usually work well
how do you 360 off a cliff
Ma men!
Which ski resort is it?
Don't drop to slow, or to fast... especially when dropping to a flat landing, you need a little bit of speed. But make sure you don't take too much, I have before, it sucks, landed straight into a mogul. Try and land on a down hill slope, but if you are dropping to a flat, or close to flat slope, make sure you don't just ski off it with no speed.
too
How long are you skis?
Lol, wear a helmet. I forgot mine one day and wiped out on about a 40 foot jump and that ended my football career. (maybe a blessing in disguise)
