    How do you land from 12 ft to flat?

    The front page pic. WTF? I would just collapse on impact and have to go on morphine from shin bang. And maybe a couple knee surgeries.

    What trick?

    What's the trick that Jon Olsson did in the JOI video? They called it a Wilson flip or something like that, but is the technical name of it? To me it looks like a double d-spin.

    Summer set-up help

    I'm using a slope in my backyard for the inrun. I put carpet over it and a little ramp. The grass is full of weeds and dirt patches. When I ski over on it, I mash the grass, and when I hike up, I cut up the grass with my boots. What should I do? Would weed killer and fertilizer help?

    Help building a jump

    I'm gonna build a jump for next year at my house. Here's a picture of my house. How should I design it so that: a) The run-in is not too steep to hike b) The jump is as big as it can possibly be. I drew the run-in like a quarter pipe, but would it be better to make it more straight? (i.e what...

    Bindings for me

    I need bindings for my Fujatives that I just bought for $165. I weigh 120-125 lbs, and I'm 5'6". I want the bindings to last at least 2 seasons. Since I don't weigh a lot, I don't need those PX 12s that everyone is recommending, right? Maybe a lower model? Also, are the only things that...

    Help choosing which of these skis

    The discount prices have arrived and I'm in need of a new pair of skis. I will use them for 70% park. The remaining 30% is mostly on groomers, but maybe a little bit on pow. I already have skis for powder, so it's not an issue if my new skis can't handle it. I'm a thrifty spender and have found...
