I know Ive seen them been done before but what is the definition is there a way that you land that is the reason its called flat. To me they look like rodeos but what to i know?

Flat spins are kinda like off axis back flips. If you want to try them make sure you have backflips dialed. then when your ready find a medium sized jump. On the take off let your skis carve off in the direction you spin and drop your shoulder immediately reaching for japan, this will help guide the rotation. youll spot your landing pretty early so just put your feet to the snow and stomp heavy man

Flat spins are not at all like off axis backflips, the real "flat" axis is one that has been lost in this new generation because wackflips are easier to do and you feel cooler because you can convince yourself that you are not just doing a backflip japan.

Ex of a real flatspin.
