force yourself to try everything you know natural, and try it natural, thats a really good way to make you a better skier and it will make you more comftorable with your natural so then you can progress further with your natural because it won't be so god damn scary because you'll know the feeling of doing shit natural which is like twice as scary lol. it really brought my confidence up and allowed me to try a lot more new things. Hope this helps bossman

Fuck with your style a bit!

If you've hit a trick wall, start working on different grabs, cleaning up your arm motions, throwing shifties, doing shuffles on rail landings, grab your tips when grinding... possibilities are literally endless.

Its one of those things you can work on forever, and its easy to put a lot of new flavor into tricks you already know how to do.

This. Try skiing like the bunch for a day. The next day, ski like the TC crew. The day after that, ski like a 2009 thug.

There's also plenty of stuff outside the park to learn. If you feel you're plateauing in the park, try working on your bump skiing, or carving on groomers, or whatever else. Maybe spending some time out of the park will make you excited again about hitting jumps and rails.
