How to Do a Helicopter in Skiing

1). Find a jump that throws you slightly upward. Just as important, the jump should have a sloped landing. A flat landing is harder on the body.
2). Hit the jump at a comfortable speed. You can perform a "heli" at very slow or very fast speeds. Pick an approach speed that's comfortable for you.
3). Rotate your head in the direction of your spin as you hit the jump.
4). Throw your arms in the same direction as your head, with one arm moving across your body and the other falling behind.
5). Plant your chin against your shoulder to continue rotating.
6). Spot the landing.
7). Bring your hips and legs around.
8). Absorb the landing by bending your knees and ankles.
