ahh, switch backs, I remember the day well, well not really....

I was sessioning a table last xmas break, doin all kinds of shit, moved onto switch backs, then the second one I did I popped to early, thus getting no pop at all really, landing on my face, ripping half of it off, getting on the local news, forgetting my name for a couple hours and missing 3 weeks of skiing....

I'll do them again for the first time since last xmas break on this xmas break, it can't happen twice on the same day. What are the odds I figure

They are actuyally really easy, cause you can see your landing really fast. Your take-off is the same as a normal backflip, just a lot harder. You can do em on a pretty small jump, like 5 meters or something. Just be sure you can do the jump in your head. Then the reality won't be so different.

 
Also, trying a switch back before you have backflips 100% dialed is a good way to break your neck.

i love switch backs, i never see many people do them. they r under rated i think. they may not be that hard but when u see it its def awsome. and off a cliff i think a switch back would def be sicker than a 0. landing in powder switch while ur momentem is gowing down the hill from ur rotation... thats gotta be awsome.

 
remeber tanners switch back in propaganda off that water slide

'its not that chill of a trick anyway'

uhhh ive seen many zeros off a cliff, and seeing lief's switch back off a 20-30 footer in skier mag almost made me quit skiing on the spot.

i know thats your opinion and all, but zero spins off cliffs always include the skier completely flailing away and sketching out the landing. when you add a backflip to that, id say its way more chill...

'I heard that Richard Gere gerbils. That is, he inserts gerbils into a paper towel tube, which he then sticks up his butthole. I don't doubt this, because he asked me if i wanted to come over to his house and gerbil. I insisted that he come over to MY house, since the whole thing seemed weird. As a practical joke, i attached a bucket of water to the top of the door so that when he opened it, I beat him with a mannequin leg.'-Skydaddy

 
Leif is such a beast. Hes a badass. He did alot of switch backs when I was at CoC. And, he did the coolest grind I have ever seen: he found a really mossy rock and would grind it on his way back down the mountain.

Thanksgiving is kind of a weird holiday. I mean, we're celebrating the one time in history we got along with the Native Americans. Its like a date rapist saying 'We should concentrate on the great dinner we had before the evening started.'
