we all watch ski movies but i feel like most of the ski population cant even relate to the sensation of corking, or skiing in pow that deep.

skiing the most the last three seasons and I still can't properly grab and spin; I cant spin up to 9 tho (sketchy). rail game is decent and I've done a few inverted tricks.

In the same amount of time a friend of mine learned to dub flat 7. FML

Im not that good either..... I can do 3's but not that clean. I really want to try 5's but haven't gotten the balls yet. I have attempted multiple front flips but only landed 2. I also got the balls to try a 3 off a like 25' jump. It was so scary haha. Oh and I hate rails haha, I can only do boxes and a 360 on a box.

been park skiing since whenever I made this accout in 2006. Rails i can kfed, 4 out, and 2 on if im lucky. Usually never scared of any rails. Boxes I can do more on. Jumps I suck 360s on 20-25ft jumps, mostly just like doing 180s. I think switch 3s are easier than normal ones as long as I can switch 180 I can switch 3 the jump.

My favorite thing is just trying to slide really long/difficult rails. My favorite is an srail to dfd we set up. Took a good bit of hiking to finally get it, but it was fun.

I've been hurt a lot and I'm getting to the point of my life where I need to stay out of the hospital. I still like to go out and have fun with friends. I may throw a couple flips a year but I generally steer clear of metal things. I broke my leg on a rail so It may just be mental but I've tried learning rails and have done it a couple times but it's just not there anymore.

i say i'm pretty good in real life, but i cant cork seven and i have no style. it always seems that the moment you stomp something new is the moment that that thing you just stomped seems pretty fucking stupid.

My best tricks are switch 3, 5, and K fed which are pretty inconsistent. But hopefully I can get better and stop sucking.

This is where I belong. Honestly, I ski because it's fun. Hanging out with the bros, making stupid edits, and enjoying the outdoors is what I'm about.

I've been skiing 3 seasons now, with 3 grabs in the air, 270 outs on rails, and tail pops for days. Still progressing, but no where near "good".
