casing a jump is wayyy beter, overshooting means you have more force. They both are horrible, exspecialy on slushy days when you huck a cork on a table and case it before you finisehd your cork and just launch off the case and your body just rolls down the landy all limp

Take it from me guys. You would much rather over shoot. It's been 4 months allready and my heels don't feel any better. It might take an entire year to heal said one of my doctors. I'm going to see another doctor this next week to see if I need cortazone(sp?) shots in my heels. I'm praying I can ski this winter

i'd rather overshoots, i hate landing short, kills my heels for a few days, can hardly walk. overshootin just leads to some skiers thumb or a fucked up wrist for me. and i have a lot better chance not falling when i overshoot

if you overshoot, you have farther to fall to the ground - if you case, your not going as far. i'd rather case. just as longs as its not a switch 9 at chad's...

Undershoot... definitely. It's like asking: "Would you rather fall more... or less?"

I would agree with spencer here. I think that landing short NOT SPINNING is better because you can kind of compress yourself, and be realistic, you are never really that high unless your pro. But Spinning I would rather go farther because you have more time to pray

if it was a table jump id definitely rather case even if it was a 100 footer and missed the landing by 5 feet

as long as your arnt crazy short you can usually do a controled crash to slide down taking out most the impact. way better then falling to flat from even higher. Overshooting doesnt mean taking it to the bottom 1/4 of the landing it means being past any type of landing(simon dumont)

I wouldn't wanna pull a "my ankles are broken"
but it seems that when I case a jump early in the day it ruins the rest of my day because my feet/ankles hurt like fuck. And usually at my hill it's hard to overshoot, come to think of it I probably only had to worry about overshooting a few times last year.

haha yeah wachusetts knuckles suck.
overshooting is def better, just because u overshoot doesnt mean ur going to land on a totally flat surface like when u case a jump. i dont no if that makes any sence to anyone but me.

dunno ive cased 70 foot tables and overshot 60 foot tables so i go about 85ft and id personally much rather case... overshot just plain hurts cause its like casing just theirs much more force and generally your much higher from the ground.

the only problem with caseing a jump is you look retarded, when you go huge and overshoot, falling is not that big a deal cause you look like a complete dare devil

well it depends on the size of the jump and what style and where (pipe, park......MOGULS)
but in general id rather undershoot, but overshooting looks wwwaaayyy cooler

undershooting sucks on knuckles, because you double eject and slide down on your stomach

generally 'd rather undershoot, unless it's a gap, which was mentioned. But with undershooting you can bounce off the knuckle and then down the landing which can suck.

overshoot=broken legs or head slam
case=bruised ankles, broken AT MOST. whoever says overshoot is a moron

id rather overshoot because when you case you don't really expect it as much and your still doing your tick, therefore you can't prepare your body to fall. When you overshoot you see it coming and you can make it so you don't get hurt just absorb the impact as much as possible and fall to your side. If your casing it way more intense even though theres less force.

if its soft, then overshoot, but if its hard id rather case it cuz the impact isnt as harsh
