I go up to the hits completely unsure of what the hell im doing. Like I'll be on the lip and realize that I'm slightly wound up and...uh oh, what the fuck am i about to do here.

this usually results in the sickest penis flail 1's and 3's you've ever seen

yours?

sometimes i forget to pull my pants all the way up to my waist when i'm skiing pow, so then i have to kinda do the park rat monkey stance to keep them from falling off.  turns out the monkey stance really sucks in pow.

I absolutely have to wear a certain ski on a certain foot or it throws me all off.

i have an awful habit of planting my pole when i spin cork 7's and 9's. i also have a ridiculous superstition about right and left skis. also, when i'm tucking into a jump, i absolutely have to hop once when i stand up before i take off, otherwise i'll surely crash.

im OCD about my skis on a particular foot. and i sometimes just stand up and completely relax. which ends up with my bombing straight with no control...

i think i stick my tongue out too. yrah loosing it would suck. also when i do backies i throw my head to the side so even though i do it i can't see the landing well and it looks weird

i wave my arms when im jumping, even im balanced. i put my pole straps on even i know because of that my thumbs broke when i fall. when i slide rails and im too afraid to slide it to the end, i dont jump off, but i land on my nuts. i jump hard on all rails and i break my edges. i try to make spins look slow and stylish and i dont land straight and i ruin the landings.

pre-bang.. its funny to watch though. Definitely after-bang too.. like when it looks like someones hit you over the head with a pipe b/c your body is all slumped.

i drink a lot of baileys in my coffee on the way to the hill - no matter how close i am to the hill. in fact, the closer i am = the faster i pound the baileys....its going to make me fat.

I like to jump off cliffs without scoping the landing.  This usually results in a a good OH CRAP! moment.

i hate if my hands look insanely large in a ski glove resulting in usually pipe gloves all the time and freezing hands.
i sit back on my tails when i dont feel like skiing and just straight line.

yeeeah I always smoke to much pot in the morn then get sketched out by the big jumps. Then hit the bar at lunch, and after bomb the big jumps due to my false confidence. Thats prolly my worste, that or slinding rails w/ my boots barley buckled.

umm, left right skis is a big one, but i'm working on getting out of that. I have a bad habit of closing my eys sometimes while spinning, so i don't spot my landing and biff hardcore.
