Help With Boxes

[FLSkier]

Question,

When you hit a jump and 90 onto a box, how should your skis be? Should they be angled at all so you don't catch an edge, or should they be flat on the box?

Flat.

Dont worry about catching your edge .. sometimes it will happen but youve gotta be flat..

Thanks

+Karma+ for both

somehow after a while catching edges becomes kinda rare. You want to be flat.

usually i like my skis to be upside down when going on the box. its gnarly try it.

i dont know if this is weird but my back ski is always flat and my front ski is slightly tilted up

Don't worry about what angle your skis are at. Worry about how you hit the box. You have to be right over it and balanced to make it to the end. Good luck.

i always have my skis angled, but not on purpose, it just happens.

although it does significantly wear down edges differently

(inside edge of down ski and outside of up ski get wrecked for me)

if you dont switch your skis around due to asymmetrical graphics or some other reason.
