What style jump is this???

[Canuker]

Are jumps 1 and 2 both classified as kickers???( oh and on jump one the "slope" isnt susposed to be flat, so dont pay attention to that)

refer to crappy MS Paint drawing

 

[Dukeybrains]

number 1 is almost a step up but not really

 

[*Michael*]

i would say 1 is a regular kicker, 2 looks like a step down to me

 

[SlickRick.]

1= step over 2=step down. im prety sure that is common terminology, at least what ive heard from joss etc.

 

[philipc]

one is table top 2 is a step down

 

[colin13]

i think any jump can be called a "kicker". the first one looks more like a step up/over sort of jump while the second is more cheese wedge-like

 

[freeski_Shaggy]

wouldt they both be step downs since the lips are higher than the landings

but the first is kinda a table too

1. Regular type booterish step overish jump

2. Step down table

I posted this like a minute ago and i already have 5 replies, yay!!

and thanks for the help, btw is it normal to have a harder time keeping control on a kicky jump as aposed to a floaty jump?

 

[three6steeze]

yes, it is. It sounds kind of weird but popping off the lip as hard as you can will help you keep control no matter what type of jump it is.

 

[FUUUCK]

step over/table

step down booter

 

[Malcolm]

the landing of ur second jump needs to be groomed it looks dangerous

 

[anxju]

hahaha

 

[T-Time]

1 step up or step over

2 step down

 

[slashquatch]

id say step over for number 1 ive always wanted to hit a jump like that. like the one in the level 1 final park section

 

[396222687862]

step over

step down

step over = my favorite type of jump, fucking sweet

 

[Smuffy]

hahahaha true

 

[Canuker]

really? around where i live most of the hills use them.

and anyone else with advice on the keeping control on lippy jump thing?

 

[396222687862]

throw your hands forward and keep them infront of you while spinning

 

[paulbunyan]

its true i like popy jumps (with a nice steep landing) because i find it easyer to spin or keep control in the air

 

[K-Thomas]

that's the technical term. haha way to go jesse.

 

[gkenworthy]

1st jump is a step-over, and they second one is like a cheese wedge step down.

 

[JEWbacca]

Kicker/step down

 

[Alex_G]

1-- true table (trannies basically match height)

2--step down (take off tranny is much higher than landing tranny)

 

[Black-Bandanna]

Precisely.

Gotta get technical with these kids kevin. Only way they'll learn...haha.

Am I gonna see you at Boulder on Sunday!? Better be a yes!

 

[zesty_buddy]

1. Step over - one of the most fun jump types

2. Step down

 

[Reed.S]
