Landing switch.

yeah, i think the most important thing is not to freak out, cuz it just feels unatural at first
 
try to land even, on the balls of ur feet. When i first landed switch, i would just flop forward cause i thought i couldnt land. Confedence. Just stomp and ride, try your hardest not to drag your hands cause it looks shitty.
 
trust yourself landing switch, dont be looking over your shoulder when your landing, look back up the hill. When it comes down to it it's easier landing switch in my opinion.
 
it never really came that hard for me and i couldnt even ski switch all that well. Just have good air awareness; know where you are in the air so you can trust yourself on your rotation and you wont have to freak out as much. I guess it was pretty easy for me cause i knew where i was in the air and because of that i never really worried about bad landings. Just try to feel comfortable in the air.
 
do 180s off everything, like those tiny jumps that are always on the side of groomers and then just get bigger and bigger.

and like they said, look up the hill not over your shoulder when you land. you want the front of your skis to hit the snow before the back, its really weird if your tails hit first, but dont overdo it
 
a word of advice:

dont over shooting a jump when you intend to land switch. You see the landing go past you and your like shit, and then comes the impact when you switch. Its not pretty.
 
probably not but.... ski switch alot, work your way up, and do think about it to much, just let it happen, depends on the jump, but ill often feeling more comfortable spinning to switch than to landing forward.. used to happen alot with threes, cause i end up sitting back like corking but not and it fucks me on the landing. but ive gotten over that
