Afterbang... Help!

[.j.Scrilla]

Recently all I have been working on is my rideaway. I have managed to master landing with my neck extended to the sky, like an intrigued Meercat, looking at the rail take off point making sure my homies know how of a 'Baller' I am. I also never ever let my hands move from my side (ever!). My most recent addition to my Louis Vitton afterbang bag is landing with my skis staggered like a telemarker, and if landing forwards, dropping my shoulder while manualling away on my tails.

But what I can't control is the bounce I get when landing switch so rigidly. Sometimes I bounce so hard I could almost throw a switch back. My predicament is, absorbing the Bang! without affecting the other elements of my rideaway. If I time it correctly the 'Bounce' coincides perfectly with the Bass line of the gangsta rap I listen to while riding. But a 'Bounce' to 'Bail' ain't cuttin' it. Also my bandana falls down along with my pants, this does not sit well with me as no-one is intimidated by SuperMan widefronts.

hahaha sounds like you got it down, but it just doesent come natural for you, sorry man stick to sketchy landings...................

 

[VT_scratch]

boots with springs on the bottom

sag straps (to wear)

and scott vails afterbang trick tip video

duuuhhhh

 

[A.R.]

^ haha.

lol just keep a little beend in your legs. if your pants are baggy enough nobody will know....

 

[richards]

HA

 

[blindside]

shenanigans

 

[Steazel]

hmm sounds like you on your way to joining the "kool klub" of skiing, I suggest larger pants, the bigger they are the less noticable you leg movements are, gl man

 

[a_pla5tic_bag]

If you don't bend your keens at all then you can look super cool, but your kneecaps will probably explode and you fibula and tibia will probably shoot through them. But hey, style comes at a price.

sweet mang

 

[Nico_G]

I think you need to stretch out your tall tee more haha

 

[blindside]

lololol i can see this catching on

 

[BEARS.]

absorb, then bang

 

[jstan4]

you should make bouncing to switchbacks a signature thing, i think they look super dope, gl tho

 

[Ben.]

the bounce is all good. you forgot when landing forward that if you are remotely off center to just let the ski with no weight on it lift up

 

[jayo.]

hahaha.

i just wear leg braces so i cant bend my knees even if i try

 

[A_Longley]

i personally gave in on this whole afterbang thing, it inflicts way to much stress on the ligaments and joints consiquently increasing your risk of injury. now if you include this extra force with skiing hungover (which we all know makes your muscle tissue and ligaments weaker due to dehydration) then you are asking for an injury.

i am personally working on my own ride away (with the aid of a flex 2 tongue in my ft's) which allows me to crouch as low as possible

 

[Phantom]

LOLZ

 

[ataraxia]

take it like a man

 

[K.C.Deane]

You know after watching people ski I realize that afterbang is a good thing. I mean some people try and get TO steezed out, but why wouldnt you want to look good riding away from a rail? or a jump. I mean i always try and keep my hand down and in to my body. I dont want to look like im feeding chickens half the time and flailing my arms even though im doing to the trick. I want to make everything look fluid and smooth. And if thats afterbang then I would much rather afterbang then look like im hucking everything.

 

[jsaya_SagStraps]

pretty much coverd it lol.

 

[titsLOL]

try landing more on your face.

 

[pretzels]

LOL mad karma for this thread

 

[inactive]

yup

 

[NCurry]

you gotta land and obsorb it.... THEN you force your skis together and stand straight up stairing back at your rail while quietly whispering to your self.... "your MY bitch now"

 

[PeteyG]

rideaway like a THUG

 

[Drail]

that's one of the youngest looking smokers i think i've ever seen.

 

[Skiing_Is_Fun]

and the one next to him is the youngest looking creature beast ive ever seen

 

[doritos]

That picture makes me hope to hell that Darwin was correct, and natural selection exists. Unfortunately both those kids will probably knock up some skank, and the cycle will continue.

 

[TheWorst]

fuck afterbang that shit is OUT the new thing is afterbEER. right when you land you gotta reach in your pocket and crack open a cold one for the ride away, not a big deal.

 

[Malcolm]

haha this is correct

 

[Rogge]

1) Listen to more Tupac2) Get hyphy

 

[OneLove_skier]

agreed thats all you need

 

[iJib]

I thought it was all about taking off in your snow threads baggy and dope as fuck

but then landing in your getting crunk party threads like "OMFG DID YOU SEE ME THAT WAS REDIC I CHANGED OUTFITS MID AIR IT WAS THAT EASSSZZZY!

 

[Alex_G]

this is the answer to most things skiing

 

[hellomynameisjef]

[spliff.Life]

[Dylan_]

[hellomynameisjef]

4bi9's name is actually a moral code to live life by

40s

Blunts

Ice

Nines

Ski with any or all of these things and the afterband will come naturally

 

[Smuffy]

[Hairmetaler]

[OMGWTFBBQ]

1. tape your hands to your legs.

2. fear no fail

[hellomynameisjef]

the breakfast of champs hahahaha

 

[RastaRob]

You should try double bandanas

 

[dave_uninc]

this is fucking ridiculous

 

[travispersaud]

umm buy a gat ?

 

[austinvt]

this is probably the best thread on NS right now. i feel like the afterband is a real problem among the skiing society. i mean, working on landing a trick is one thing, but if you cant AFTERBANG, you might as well just quite skiing all together. Bra KARMA++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

[cool.]

 

[whattheshit]

this should be sufficient.

 

[aidansheahan]
