If you had one ski flailing you probably had most of your pressure on one ski when you popped which set you off balance. Even if your carving into a spin, when you pop make your your weight is even on both feet.
make sure you have enough speed before you carve cause it will slow you down a little bit and also its a little different than going of straight because when your spinning your kinda gonna be going diagonal instead of straight.
this is sooooo true. if your going to carve you have to go faster. for the simple fact that the jump will be longer because your not going straight over. As well unless your landing switch your most likely going to land back seat.
So how to you dial it in so you don't land back seat? Correct me if im wrong but i think it would help to keep your weight as forward as posible DURING the spin to change your rotation to a more longitudinal spin? Wow that sounded gay but, thats the way i could explain it. Again im prolly completely wrong so correct me if i am..
Generally,for a 3 or a 5, don't u start spinning after poppin??carvin before poppin could make u lose your balance..i've been told this..and very important..use your head for the rotation/spin,not only arms..correct me if i'm wrong..
