Video: Never Land To Flat

Landing, not a launch.

Fact – even if we don’t realize it, we’re experiencing the nature of physics every time we ride. What makes huge air possible is the fact that landing on a steep decline (transition) turns downward momentum into forward momentum.

When you see a giant landing ramp, the goal is always to land on the downside. This guy instead used one as a giant launch and landed right to flat ground instead. Ouch!
