A "boof" stroke is a good technique to help you get over a "drop" safely and with style. It could also determine how much angle you have when you go over a "drop," whether you're going to pencil in or are going to land flat on the "drop" "below." When you "boof" a stroke, you are actually using your body to get over a "drop" as well as the stroke that you are using. ... and that "propels" you over the drop...

in the beginning of the video he's saying "drop," not "job"
