This is a sample from our full tutorial pack the one hour long Shredder Beginner Pack!
thats now available at stompittutorials.com
so the first thing we are going to go through
in this videos is popping how to pop of the ground and get some air this is essential
to get the height you need off jumps then we go through ollies which is a fun but tricky
technique which is very useful to get onto rails or jump over stuff and then in part
2 we go through how to hit the kickers The difference between ollying and popping is
that when poping you take of from the flat base of the ski while ollies you do it from
the tales of the ski. Stand shoulder width apart and bend down then pop a lot. When you
bend down make sure your body weight is centered. A fter trying this a few times try it with
a little bit of speed when you do this with speed really make sure you pop straight up
and land with your skis flat again when you landed popping with speed it is time to move
onto ollies ollies are different from popping in the way
that you have to use your arms a lot more and you have to lean back so you roll of the
tails from this angle you can really see how I take off from the tails here. If you take
off to hard from the tails that will result in a nose heave landing, if you land on your
noses it is not so good if you do it off a bigger feature. In order not to land nose heavy
ollie up and level out and fall down and land flat on your skis again once you got this
down its time to try it with a bit of speed actually I think it´s a lot easier with speed
see here I use the arms I roll of the tail then up it takes quite a lot of effort but
it is an important technique to learn. Notice the body weight is over the tails bending
the skis the legs are still a little bit bent and pushing up then I extend the legs fully in the end.
When you got this try jumping over a pole on the ground then have a friend
hold it up for you. In how to jump on skis part 2 we will go through how to hit your
first jumps on skis in a safe way we will be focusing on jumping technique as well as
looking at some common mistakes and how to avoid them I'm sure you will learn this soon
good luck!
