Steep

Just like the Steep control preset, this landing mode is meant for fans of the predecessor game. It's a middle ground of sorts, as it lets you rotate as much as you want but as soon as you let off the sticks, it'll auto-align your character with the ground as much as possible.

This is a great option when you're more familiar with the trick system and want to start pulling bigger, more complex, and more risky stunts. As it is slightly more difficult than Auto landing, the Steep landing mode comes with a small points bonus.
