You should have hit it faster so you landed on the landing, not the knuckle..

Liveezy, which colour jacket are you referring to? That was the plan
snowHeads are a friendly bunch.

It's not so important as it looks really slushy and small. If you take that technique to a bigger hit on a harder day you will be in pain! Look how fast the other guys hit it and how much smoother they land.
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Liveezy, small the small one was next to that one.....
it was getting slower and slower as it warmed up, out of interest how do you guage speed when hitting a new kicker for the first time?
So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

kitenski, that's a good question. As you say snow speed can change a lot. Even between hits. See T.Hall at Chads Gap!
Mostly it's experience, a few speed checks help. Seeing where other people drop from helps too but sometimes they have fresh wax so it can confuse things. It's just about sacking up for it in the end!
Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:
