Finding a cliff you are comfortable with is the first step in learning to huck.
There are two ways to hit a cliff: A straight drop or with speed.
Just dropping gives a larger impact and less room to ski out of the landing, so try to go in with speed.
Visualize the hit from start to finish a few times before you huck. If you think you are going to crash, you will.
Pop as you reach the lip as if you were hitting a kicker. Lift your legs up and tuck them in. Keep your arms up and in front of you to keep your balance and not flail.
As you fall, spot your landing then extend your legs into the landing zone. This helps you absorb the impact and avoid hip checking rock and stumps. Ride out hard and make a slow turn at the end to stop. Well done, now go find a bigger one.
