Snowboarding: Learn How to do Spins Off Jumps/Kickers
There is one method that works great when doing spins off snowboard jumps and here I will inform you of this valuable information. The first step is setting up the spin. If your going to spin frontside off you heels you need to carve on your toes towards the toeside of the jump. Then when you are halfway up the transition of the jump, switch to putting pressure on your heelside. As you hit the lip of the jump you pop. This transfer of energy from your toe to your heels will give you extra pop and a faster spin.
Next, as you hit the lip when you pop you will wind up with your body and look with your head in the direction that you want to spin. Your body and your board will follow your head and shoulders!! Now you will look with your hear under your armpit, this will keep you from going corked and losing your balance in the air. This is a mistake that many beginners make!! Just knowing to look at your arm pit will put you miles ahead of the competition. Now as you pop, and throw with your arms/shoulders, and look with your head, you will use your back arm to reach down and grab your board. This will keep you stable in the air, and makes the spin much easier to land. Tip: It is much easier to bend your knees and try to bring them as high as you can, then try to just grab them with your hand. This will help you make grabs when you first start, something that not alot of beginners can do.
Finally, you spin the rotations that you wish to make, then look at the landing with your head. Switch from looking over your shoulder to looking slightly to the other direction that the landing is in, this will help you stop the spin and land well. Now you just STOMP IT, land, suck up your knees, ride away.
