Air
Other
wise known as: getting air, getting
big air
“Man,
you gotta get some air before you can throw anything.”
Getting air refers to getting you and your board completely
air borne. This can happen from any sort of jump, cliff, or
just from olling. The more air you get the bigger you went
of the jump meaning you are going higher up or farther from
the jump or both.
You can also get air in really big wipe outs. Especially
those where you catch an edge at high speeds and you are thrown
and bounce.
