handplants

Lean to the side (downhill) grab the lip let you're body go inverted push off of the lip. Fall try again untill you land it.

this is the way im gonna try them:

on the right wall:

go up to it, straight up the wall, turn 90 left, lean towards the transition, and put ur left hand down, pop up, throw your legs out, another 90 to the left, and bring my legs down, ski away and watch the ladies chase after me.

Cats always land on their feet. Toast always lands buttered side down. I propose we strap pieces of toast to the backs of cats, buttered side up, and net them all together, the contraption, hovering inches above the surface, could link a monorail from Vancouver to New York.
 
do you stand on the uphill facing arm or the downhill facing arm, I could never figure it out last time, is there a place you can get a video of it from??

Make sure that you are strong enough to do it first or you will kill yourself hehe. Maybe try it off skis first on various things....

If you go into it with enough speed than you don't really hold yourself up.

look at the picture of Mauro Nunez (or something like that) at the snow jam. his handplant looks so good

the move really don't strike me as something very dangerous (compared to huge flairs in the pipe). I think once you get the motion down correctly, they will get easier and easier to do.

You also probably don't need a whole lot of power to do them because when I see a handplant on skis, a person doesn't hold it for more than 1/4 of a second. I believe the move is one motion.

 
yeah, I do them on the ground with rollar blades and for break dancing and stuff, but I like to hold it for as long as I can, it feels rad

Philou's Oakley posters are pretty rad too

Yeah I have that on my wall. Such a sick handplant. He even gets a grab in. To do that you need to be strong though. Because you break the fluidity of the motion.

Peace,
