Check out this information on Freestyle Aerials. The men's final goes off tonight, and this video and article explain the sport very well.

Check out this article on freestyle aerials article in the New York Times:

Freestyle aerialists, as these athletes are known, are not actually throwing caution, along with themselves, to the winds. It is not fate that plops them down at the end of their jumps, more or less upright and safe, in a cloud of powdery snow. It is physics, and plenty of preparation.

And here is an interesting video which explains the physics very well.
