[Risen]

When it happened I was really astonished with realism of this crash

Thsi happens usually when you gain "too much" speed. For example gate 35 in kulm is somewhat easy way to recreate these kind of jumps

And yes, its quite cool how it happens

this happens very often to me and i dont know what I'm doing wrong

[Zmaster]

As far as I know it happens ecause you are having too much speed and air pressures your skis too much.

In one scenario this happens often in between 150-200m in kulm when your jumpers position gets slightly upwards and by default you try to correct it slightly too aggressively.

Having too much speed is baaad for you

I also love to see when skis are out of balance like in this video:

It happens usually after 170~ meter when there is front wind.
