never tried in the park and only "landed" one in the BC off a 30 or 35 footer...
all I can say is that it's probably a lot easier in the park
and dont huck TOO hard in the bc

seems like you would have to huck harder off the cliff due to there being no lip

it might be easier to try with building a lip off the cliff first

^ you guys are correct
What the fuck is with all this Royale hating shit? You fuckers should be ashamed. I bet half of the people on this site exaggerate on their skiing skill, and Royale should be fucking respected cause he owned up to it and admitted it. So what, he lied, but hey, he came clean, unlike many of you. That took balls, so stop the hate.

Hey man,
Doing backflips in the BC are actally, in my opinion, way easier than back flips in the park. The key for the BC is setting the flip. Usually the take off is flatter in the BC as you are not taking off a jump, so you really need to be careful in setting it with your HIPS, not your head, cause from a flat takeoff, that can get hairy. Plus, same as the park, have the timing in the air down for the drop before you attempt the flip. Also, if it is soft snow, you want to over rotate a tiny bit, not much, but enough to not come down flat and cartwheel . You need your ski tips to stay above the snow- You need to be aware of the angle of the landing for this. For the take off, be sure it is stable, and there are no rocks right underneath your takeoff, cause that will hurt! For it to be stable, get out on it and stomp it out, and be sure it doesn't fall like a cornice or something.
I love throwing huge floaty backs in the BC. 40-50 footers really let you just lay back and feel like you are upside down forever! That is pretty much the biggest rush in skiing, actually not pretty much, absolutely is the biggest rush!
