How to land humungus jumps.

I am finding I tend to land left shoulder into the water , richoche of the water and keep going how do i fix this.
Am I too powered up?
Am i not leaning back enough on launch?
Do I need to loop the kite?
Do I need 2 more beers on the beach?

Land on your feet! Board facing downwind - try to absorb some of the impact with your knees so you don't ricochet off the water on these humongous jumps.

Landing on the board after the humungus boost on port tack I seem to be going over the left front of the twin tip.I then lean back and then left I then usually richoche of my left shoulder and 80% of the time keep going.
Just busted chicken loop in half laying down a few loops today. Onlyhad about 150m to swim.
PR thats the last thing I need ,It would be good to have one with you.

When I was working out how to jump and land, especially big stuff, pointing my board down wind, and flyind down wind was the key to making big jumps happen. Once I prepared myself for pointing down wind during the jump, the whole rotation/scuiff body position thing almost disapeared. I was jumping and trying to land across wind instead of jumping and going downwind.

Instead of trying to go in the same direction you take off in, once you pop off the water, start looking down wind and before you land, have your board facing down wind in the direction you are going.

Hope this helps and makes sense.

Try landing toeside then switching after landing. This will help a heap.

Mini Mal,
Sorry, can't help you with this landing thing. Maybe ask how to do big frothy, bouncy, sliding, out of control returns to briney. Now THAT I can help with.

Jumping is compulsory, landing is optional!
