Yeah from last winter, thought for sure I was gonna bend rails or something lol

Wicked... can I ask how much you weigh? Ballpark? Also.. how big of a "ramp" did it take to get that height... it's hard to tell in that picture? I have taken a few jumps (total newb here) and even getting 1 or 2 feet of air and my stomach was in my throat lol... I LOVED IT!

180lbs, that one was about 4 feet tall and waaay to small for where I was trying to land, hit it balls out from pretty far away and just exploded it, for the distance it should of been 8-10ft lol if your just learning start off with hitting naturals, find some nice wind lips with good downhills and pinner

That's awesome.... thanks for the tips. I don't expect to go pro or anything but even small jumps are a rush IMO. Man I can't wait for snow.

Make sure you protect your body, chest protector, spine protector, knee / shin guards, elbow guards. Almost forgot, some sort of neck brace. Practice small and go bigger as you get comfy, be hucking huge in no time.

Dont worry. I will be taking steps to protect myself when i'm out practicing.

I wont be doing Turcotte levels of huck for a while yet. meanwhile i will just try to not land on my tail.

(Who knows. Maybe i have a secret inner power for stunting and hucking snowmobiles that will lead me to becoming the Travis Pastrana of sledding...REMEMBER MY NAME)
