i can't remember what i do when im in air, like i go off and do what i do but don't remember controlling anything midair

is there anyway to get oneself to remember or be alert midair?

 
yes. Totally understand what you're sayin. I do it sometimes aswell, you kinda get it, and as your taking off you suddenly change you mind or what ever. Fucks me off. Fuck ff my brain

**************************

the best idea ever was the one that was diabolicly hatched today at lunch in the hall way of my school. It involved a boat and beer and selling that beer to 14 yearolds for like $3 a bottel, so that way from every 24 we got, we would get 12 and then never have to pay for our own beer again. and if the poilice tried to stop us, we were drive away in a boat (which doesnt have a licence plate) but, if there were on a baot, we were throw peanuts at them, cause its highly probable that one of them in alergic to then and he would go into anaphletic shock and we were get away. if that didnt work we were catapult cows at them and wait for the headlines 'police boat sunk by flying cows'. --Apple.
 
Set your rotations right before you leave the lip.

better to burn out...

...then fade away
 
has nothing to do with setting rotations

i just can't think when im in the air, my mind just goes blank until i land

 
do you mean when doing a trick or just a straight aire? are you saying, for example, you take off, do a 3, land fine, but don't remember doing the 3 sort of?

i know exactly what ur talkin about. i have a trick all planned out, and once i get in the air i just totally forget what the one thing i was working on was. my mind just goes blank and i dont think through the trick while i do it. it sucks.

 
no he's talking about actually in the air, and sometimes i get the same thing when doing 3's or whatever. like i set the rotation good and everything and land well but i don't remember anything from when i was in the air.

my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.
 
spike540 i really dont think thats what he means he said he does what he does and then forgets it later, i do that too, i hit it, pull a three, and then land smooth, but then later i cant remember the feeling or what i did in the air

'hey can i have a butload of cash?... NO'

it kinda sounds like hes talking about psyching himself out sort of

Me: So you like the big powder hits?

Cam Miller: Only when I am snorting them.
 
yeah i know what you're saying. i'm pretty sure when you get in the air your mind goes into a dream-like state and when you land it is completely erased from your memory. That happens to me too though

i think it's because a million different things are going on inside of your mind so your muscles just take over, pull the trick/rotation (muscle memory), and you sort of regain your thought process when you land. happens to me all the time

For me its kinda like a mental block in your head, you wanna do it but you almost afraid..but you don't think so. In your case I think you are just having problems with thinking about screwing up...you can't think that otherwise you will mess up, im probably not the first to say it but you gotta comit once you hit off the lip of the jump, even if you screw up in the air just make sure you land on your feet and learn from your mistake.

I think I know what you're talking about man, you start a trick but the second you get even the slightest notion it's going wrong you sort of mentally and physically abort and totally eat shit, often with little or no idea what went wrong. I think what it comes down to in the end is a combination of having visualized the trick a million times in your head so that you know exactly what to do in each stage of it and also just practicing so that your body learns what it needs to do and commits it to memory (i.e. the muscle-memory action someone else mentioned).

'Diamonds. She'll Pretty Much Have To.' - Family Guy
 
Just reall psyche yourself up for your trick. Just think that you WILL land it. Nothing WILL go wrong..you are the shit. Then commit the fuck outta your self and psyche yourself up. The only way your actually going to do the trick, is if you are fully committed. If you are hesitant, you most likely will straight air, or fuck up, or tone down your initial trick idea. Many times I've benn half-sure of what I'm about to do, and I just go off and tone it down, and I don't commit to what I planned on. Pretty much just have confidence in what your about to do, and COMMIT!

No, you guys don't get it

only one person understood

'you take off, do a 3, land fine, but don't remember doing the 3 sort of?'

you do the trick, just don't remember doing it like you don't remember controlling it

 
lol, u probably should've stated it better for these guys ^^^^^^. Ya, i know what u mean. Every time i do something bigger than a 3, I just kinda blank out, and spin/flip the trick, and when i land, i've got almost no recollection of what the trick actually felt like. so weird though, cuz last sat. i threw down an indy cross 7, and the whole while i was spinning, i was lookin at my skis, and it didn't even feel as though i was rotating at all.

I guess its a psycology thing...

from time to time i do this right as i am about to leave the lip i just decide to be lazy and dont do what i was planning on and absolutly screw myself...kind of like my first back flip attempt

Haha, that happened to me the other day. I went for a 3, caught my skis on the lip at 90, and kinda flew sideways and backwards with my back to the ground through the air, then landed really hard on my ass. Now I cant walk. Anyway, Its like I cant remember anything while I was flying, but remember the split second when I looked at the ground rushing past me before I hit. Happens to me when I land 3's too. Messed up.
