Landing 218m in Kulm, for example, is supposed to be extremely hard. Have you seen anyone land such a jump in a real competition? I LIKE falling record jumps. Its actually awesome, and I really did hope for a hill like Kulm in this game since i jumped 250m for the first time in Italy (and fell). The hard impact is realism, and it really creates more depth to this game.

Fly low = Speed too much to Land
Fly High = Impact In Landing is too Much

That's problem !

I said Its Maybe Realistic but its Not "Player Friendly" So I Want it Easier Because Its Hard To Land Even In Shorter Jumps.
I know It takes Time To Use to it but This is Game so this doesnt must Be So Perfectly Realistic.

Well, I like it much more with harder landing... The beta-2 easy landing just plain sucked. Its way better now.

Small guide for Planica. I know it is much harder in Kulm but this is a start.

Mostly the landing is about the good ol' "Adapt or die", the technique itself is really good right now. If someone is consistently flying to 215 meters in Kulm, it's either because the ideal take-off is slightly too powerful, the startgate is too high (which is a problem in Kulm because the startgate is already low by default) or the profile of the hill needs to be reviewed.

Landing in a nutshell: Let go of the forward lean completely before you land. Becomes much easier.
