Case

To Case: When you land your bike too early on the jump (on the downslope), before the lip and you bottom out the rear suspension. Some cases could cause damage to the bike. This term was coined by Motocross riders, it originated from "landing on the crankcase" which would often result in it breaking and spilling oil, though bash guards prevent it now. It has also been adapted to other disciplines, like MTB, free ride and BMX to name a few.
It could be argued that to case a landing you don't need to bottom out, you just need to land early, or you could bottom out without landing early it could still be considered a case. I personally think both need to happen for it to be called a case.
Retaurdè: Dude you cased that so bad!
Dumas: No dude, I didn't even bottom out!
Retaurdè: Maybe, but you hit the case of the jump and nearly cracked your brand new canyon!
Dumas: Oh sod off you shithead I swear I hit perfectly!
Retaurdè: Dumbass! You clearly fucked your chainring!
Outtisti: He buttered that landing, case closed.
