Hip (a.k.a. Spine)

Hip (a.k.a. Spine)

A ridge-like jump that you approach head on, before airing out of the top and landing at 90 degrees on either side. Hips are great for progressing on (you can take a little more speed each time, going higher and higher) and the angled trajectory of your flight makes them perfect for launching big, stylish method airs. On the flip side, they’re a challenge for the shapers to maintain so you won’t find one in every park.
