My coach is constantly telling me to stop dragging my toepick into jumps!
Excessive dragging of the toepick. Underrotation. Only pushing down and not forward on the takeoff.Often jumps are learned with a stationary or slow landing, so that under-rotations are less dangerous.
It's more common with doubles and triples than single jumps.
Beginner single jumps with poor technique are not immune... Cough single (f)lutz cough.
