jb1970, lots of height when you come off a jump, usually filled with lots of tricks before landing

Big Air is what I hear folk saying to themselves when they don't land a jump (at least I think that's what they are saying ...)

I thought "big air" was a skiing term too . . .
As D G Orf said, it just means alot of height off of a jump (or half-pipe/quarter-pipe wall).

it is a term that is usually used to divert attention from the fact that it was swiftly followed by a Big Crash

"Big Air" is freestyle competition discipline for both skiing & snowboarding. The riders have just one jump to pull off a trick rather than a course, skier cross, half pipe etc.
There are many other forms of "Air" such a "bIG air" which is where a skier / boarder attempted a trick, but rather: flailed around in the air, including winding down the windows, for a while before plunging various parts of their body (but not equipment) into / on / under the snow. Small Air, Not F Air, Nice P Air, Throw your toys in the Air and Hot Air are also common terms.
