Ready for doubles? need tips

[Toasted*Steeze]

Im an aussie skier so we dont get much snow. Im looking for tips as to dub rodeo and dub flat. and if anyone can tell me how fast you should go for an 80 ft jump that would be great!

 

[los.pinguinos]

fast enough to clear an 80+ ft jump

 

[Imagination]

You should be VERY comfortable hitting a jump before you safely should try a double.

If you need to ask newschoolers about dubs... You're not good enough to do them.

Sorry man, most likely the truth. Keep at it and you'll get there.

I truly hope this is not a serious thread. If it is, you should make like that snowboarder that tried a triple at Breck; Call ski patrol before attempting and tell them to meet you at the bottom of the jump ASAP.

yeah um, no vids. Like I said im on australian snow so we dont get anything. This year they built a 80 ft jump out of dirt so when snow covered it we could use it. The biggest Ive done was a 70 ft. I did it straight yes but i want enough airtime to spott the landing and finish the rotation switch. I can do all this on a tramp. Ill put up a vid soon. As for junction 133, This was as close as i could get as to seeking help from people who knew what they were doing, so yes, this is a serious thread

listen man, either commit 110% IF you know that you can do it and have done all the proper progression, have done it on tramps/water ramps, etc. or dont do it.
