^^^ Im going to have to disagree with wolf on this...

snowboarding is a gangsta! sport...I think I got as good as I did because of my buddies going "dont be a pussy"...gets me passed psyching myself out. You go big or you go home...thats how you do it.. but if you feel a twinge of fear..best not to approach because you will tweak yourself out.

Here's a good approach though:

Find a distance where you are comfortable hitting the kicker without checking...
next run increase the distance to build more speed and dont check...
keep increasing every run.
