[Dock]

Me and a buddy decided today that its time to learn whips, only one was successful (of course didn't get that one of video) but it makes for some pretty funny shots

Nothing better than "Huckin a thinga-ma-jiggy" Looked like a lot of fun

Hey, at least they tried. The closest I ever came to doing one was on accident. Looked like the first guy came pretty close.

when my sleds runnin i'm totally going to have to give this a shot! any tips on how to setup for the trick?

 

[Sledinstokesy]

im the guy in the first video. just before your skis come of the take off lean slightly to the side that you want to spin then full throttle and then the rest is well... sometimes it works and other times it dosent! hahah good luck there super fun to try!!

If you start on a lower angle lip like they did it makes for a low consequence practice, then once you feel comfortable, go out on a bigger snow day & try it on a more vertical hit. Like was said, lean right as you take off, and KEEP LOOKING at your landing. Spotting your landing is the key to 90% of tricks (in any sport imo)

 

[miralas]

yea i figured it was a lean. pin it, huck, and hope kind of trick. spot ur landing is definitely key for any sport action sport, i'll vouch for that.
