Good instincts.
Could very well have saved his life with that last second twist to land on his back.
edit: more impressive, he got back up and won the gold on on a later run.

Yeah, very adept. I think it was anything but instincts though... extreme sportsmen have experience with falling.

I give the snowmobile a 9.5 for a nice smooth riderless landing.

Experience and training are the only things that will prompt someone to do that on a fall.
It is obvious he has much of both. The landing was flawlessly timed.

it would have had a different outcome if he landed on flat ground. At least the slope helped ease the fall.
that's scary as heck though.

Tipz,
I know there was sarcasm.. but there's a few people here that probably think you should have seat belts on those things.

Very nice recovery, but where do they get the 120 feet at? looks more like 30-40 ft to me.
