How do it
The switch air is mandatory. You’ll need it to tackle other tricks performed in switch. This is jump performed in one’s “unnatural” stance.
1.
Before attempting it from a ramp, try to perform it from a flat surface.
2.
Imagine it’s the very same jump you perform in your regular stance. The difference is just that you’re switching your support leg. Accelerate, going straight on a flat board. Keep your back straight and knees slightly bent.
3.
Jump off your back leg.
4.
In the air, watch your landing spot. Use your legs to absorb the impact.
