Ok ive dropped numerous 15-20 foot drops, relativly no problems, but what i really wana know is does it hurt to take the big hits, i watch these guys like Seth, CR, Pollard, Mcconkey take huge hits... Wanna i really wanna know is does it hurt, i mean i see them, hit pow and shit and ski awa relativly easily... But does it hurt... what does it feel like.

Peace

 
if ur on the east coast anything more than 10 feet hurts like a bitch when ur landing on ice.

i havent done any bigger than 25 but it would probably hurt but they sometimes land in 3 gfeet of powder adn have really steep traneys so they dont get to much impact

yeah I too have taken a few 20 or so footers but last year at Taos I dropped what I think was close to 30ft. It always kind of takes my breath away like you've been hit in the gut when I land. Besides that nothing else hurts too bad but then again I never drop unless theres a pile of the fresh under me. I've hit tables that hurt worse to land on than the 20 ft'ers. It all depends on the pitch of the landing.

 
i only ski east and almost any bail over 10 ft is prolly gonna hurt cuz the snow is rock hard

i fucked up my hip pretty bad last year after takin like a 20 fall on a kicker

is that a keg in your pants?? cuz id love to tap that!!

hey sir, you cant park your car there! oh wait, thats your son?!
 
i find it doesnt hurt as long as you land on a slope

so they touch there skis now?-my grandma after watching RFA
 
ive done a 65footer pillow line in whis in waist deep pow and no it doesnt hurt all you need is trannnnny without it your fucked

 
yeah as long a you land on a good slope it wont hurt as bad but landing flat in the east might make you think of wanting to hit that jump again atleast that day

i live on the east coast and it hurts if you go 20 feet over, but on the west coast no problem..west coast snow is more dry

yea you might wanna make a landin for yourself if your on the east coast and trying anything over 20 ft

Skiing east yes anything over 10 feet can hurt like hell onless its on a steep slope so your momentum isnt killed at all.

Out west the biggest ive gone is 35-40 feet, but when you are landing on a slope in powder thats nothing. As big as they are going I have no idea, I imagine it gets a pretty satisfying 'oof' though :)

 
justinm i know what you mean man! once that happened to me but my worst ball pain was when i sat on one of my nuts when i was gettin on my bike YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

i would think that that 80 foot rodeo that seth pulls in Front Line would hurt like a bitch, the landing was pretty flat

man dropping cliffs east coast style aint notn my man, its the westies that i wanna know about, the 15-20 footers aint bad for me, but i gotta know bout them big arse ones.

 
I think the angle of the camera and the lighting made the landing look flat, because Seth isn't that stupid as to drop an 80 footer to flat.

*NORTHEAST CULT*
 
Nobody but the kid who dropped the 65 footer even remotely answered this guy's question. He could care less what if feels like to drop a 20 footer on the east coast...read the question again...BEFORE you reply. LATE.

I'll tell you where...someplace warm...a place where the beer flows like wine...where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of capastrano...I'm talkin' about a little place called Asssspennnnn...
 
yea seth really hurt himself off that one

ive done 55-60...you really have to scope out a good tranny...i had a perfect tranny and stomped it, i was quite surprised...just go into it knowing your going to stomp it. Your just hucking if you pre plan on hip checking and it looks weak. Go for the stomp, if you dont stomp it then you can hip check. But remember, when in doubt...FSI

fuckin send it.

yea DCman is right you need a nice slope and if your droppin more than 30 you need lots of pow

to answer the question, dropin a fat cliff is kind of like a rollercoaster. as you come of the top your not going real fast. if you hit anything over 30 ft youll start catching some mad fuckin speed while your falling, thats the part when you about shit your pants. then you just sit back, put the landing gear down and try to keep your face from hitting your knee

 
Oh don't tell me about hitting bombholes

my mate over here in new zealand, jumped off a 55- 60 footer, first one, perfect, second, took of it at a bit of a different angle, and boooom, shattered pelvis on his own boomb hole... fuck me, that woulda hurt...

seth doesnt fuckin care tho... that was like a 150 foot cliff

with a steep landing, its no differnet than a landing on a big jump, except for the powder

There are times when speed makes everything safer. 2 years ago i took a huge tumble down polar peak at fernie (there was a pretty big slide cut by the people before me, some of you may have seen it, a bit of a crowd had gathered..), I fell around 150ft over what can only be described as 'cheese grater' rocks. Had i been going slower then i was, i would have pummled myself on them, instead my speed skipped me like a stone overtop of them. All my clothes got shredded (looked like freddie kruger got to em), but my skin was only punctured in a couple small places, and i was otherwise fine. Just judge the situation...will speed cause you to overshoot and land flat, or will it distrubute the impact over a greater distance, thus making it easier on your body? I think, for the most part, bad calls in this area is what causes the most painful crashes (undershooting a gap, overshooting a table, tumbling into obstacles ie trees etc).

Don't think just jump.

 
i have done a 30+ and its not that hard. I think best is a medium steep slope for landing cuz you can ride it easier away after you land it cuz you don't get so fast after 1 second.

there arent too many cliffs in the east in the first place, and the snow isnt always that bad to land on, or maybe im just used to it

haha evryone is ganna say diffrent stuff it all depends how u land and wat the conditions are like.

biggest ive done is a 17footer at Pats Peak, it was to a slight uphill actually, not flat so which made it worse. I was only one to land it because i went off it first. took away all the pow pow so we where sessioning this cliff to an uphill landing, with about only 4 inches of pow pow left to land on. one kid broke his arm, one got knocked out and pretty much that cliff kicked our asses.

yeah but the bigger the hit means your gonna get high mother fukin fast........ just hold it tilll your lungs burn away

Jim..' hannah are u taking a dump?

Hannah'.. no, jim , girls dont poop,

Jim'... oh,,,, then why do girls have buttholes?

Hannah'.. for fucking. you silly.
 
bong hits, or cliff hits? I hit a 30 and a 35 footer in Whistler last season, with fresh pow tranny, didn't hurt a bit, as long as you land right. I tried a 180 off a 15 footer, and it kinda hurt my knees from landing in a really akward position because of the pow.

no doubt, sit back on the couch, pants down, rubber on, set to turn that ass out. Laid the bitch out, then i put it in her mouth, pulled out, nutted on a towel, then passed out.
 
pow softens everything ... if its a fluffy landing huck the fuck out of it

all depends on snow depth. super deep snow = nice soft landing.

dont get it twisted
 
above 40 you need real deep pow and a nice tranny

but below that i've landed on flat surfaces into deep powder and it wasn't too bad

i hit a 35 at brighton and i felt the impact but it really didnt hurt just make sure you have a fairly steep landing
