I usually practice with things I know then I think... hm I could add another 180 degrees to that spon and usually try things I don't want to. So... I dunno depends how comfortable you are with the setup

I usually do what I know how to do untill I have done those tricks. Then I start doing harder things. AGAIN! it depends on the setup!

yeah do the most technical stuff that you know how to do as long as it looks semi steezy. Then take it to the next level and throw down some harder stuff!

when i entered my first rail jam, all i could do was slide boxes regular. during that jam and the practice beforehand, i learned how to 2 on 2 off regular, unnattural, pretzels, switch spins on,nose and tail presses.

i ended up winning with a 270 on 270 off on the flat down they had set up.
it just goes to show how much you can learn in 6 hours if youre willing to push yourself.
