When my legs are shot from bumps and pow laps all day. Then beer me on my tailgate.

When I start getting sloppy and lose focus, I take it back a few notches and just do a few cruiser laps then leave.

Depends on the day, like yesterday I couldnt really link tricks together so I just had fun for the last hour with my friends. If Im focused and doing bigger tricks, its usually once Ive done all the tricks Ive wanted or just once I lose my focus Ill just slow it down for a bit then leave. Most of the time its because the landings are rutted out or icey since were running mostly artificial snow in NH

I don't leave the mountain, but if I am not landing stuff then I just go on the other hills and ski switch and just mess around. I wouldn't take that day too seriously... I had a really off day a couple days ago right after a really progressive day. So they happen every now and then. I am also worried about injury because of other sports, but try not to think of that because then you wont enjoy the skiing and you won't progress...

Dig deep, keep skiing, and just send it!

when there are more jerrys than trees

LAST RUN!

Whenever I notice that I'm letting the snow pick where I turn instead of me being aggressive and turning where I want

I suck at park so park days are frustrating for me too, like I pretty much always have a bad(skill wise) day hahaha. But when you're with a good group of homies and there's lots of good times thats what keeps me lapping through. It's never been about how good I am, so I just go with it. I just laugh at myself and have a good time and try not to take it too seriously to avoid frustration.

If you get frustrated, go take a few laps elsewhere. Butter around, take some runs through glades or whatever you have. Then head back later with a clear head and you'll be golden!!

Slope condition is a huge reason for calling early days this season in ontario... I have determined that there needs to be 2 negative elements for me to call it.

eg:

Icy slope, windy.

Poor lighting, bitter cold

icy slope, poor lighting.

THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS!

but for real, i will rarely call it a day due to frustration. I just totally switch up my lines and the tricks I'm trying. Just cool down and take some super simple laps, maybe blaze or have a drink then just get into your music.

We all have those days. Things just aren't working out and your getting down on yourself but its no reason to just give it up. Like everyone said, just go mess around in some woods runs or ski switch when you are too frustrated.

'Till I collapse

My attitude usually goes to shit after like 6 hours. One run I'll be super stoked and sending it all over the place, the next run I'll be catching edges and landing backseat. It's strange how it changes on a dime like that.

I never quit. In the words of Andy parry, "every day is the best day ever mon"

Usually I go until I either cannot ignore some sort of pain (from falling or hard landings) or I have to be somewhere at a certain time. But the off days do happen. While I was in college, I would ski every Friday after school to unwind from the week. One Friday I was just not able to ski well so I took it easy until I felt tired. I then had a nervous breakdown and drove the whole way home in a daze due to school stress. Those days happen sometimes to. What counts is overcoming those mentl and emotional barriers to ski the next time.

Sometimes you have bad days on the mountain, but I find that even those days are still better than most days off of the mountain! Try something new, slide rails unnatural or something

I usually go when stuff starts to hurt, whether that be a chronic injury or if I've fallen trying a new trick or something. Pushing your body past somewhere it doesn't need to go is just plain stupid. But I find that if I'm in the park and I'm sucking, going home just makes it worse cause I sit there and pout about it, so I either just work on tricks I already know and if I can't do that, groomers. But like leaving? That just kills the stoke for the next ski day, ya know?

Some days I can go for 9 hours straight and others I want to be done after a couple hours. What determines that? Probably how I feel and what the weather is like. I seem to enjoy warm sunny spring days a lot more than cold snowy January days because I seem to have a lot more energy and feel more focused.

A lot of the time when I'm not having a good day I just have to take it back a bit to ski a few laps doing fun stupid stuff and take my mind off the stress of falling on a harder trick. After a few laps I start getting back into it and work my way up to the tricks I want to learn and do. And when its all said and done, we ski to have fun, not to stress ourselves out about being the best on the mountain cuz your never actually gonna be the best on the mountain or best of your age. Just ski and have fun and progression will come with it!

that sounds like me everyday im stoked to ski but i tell my self try this then i never do

Today I worked until 4 and wanted to night ski too, but I was so tired and my shins were dead. I took a couple of runs, went inside and sat by myself for a good hour, almost asleep, and then went back out and felt a lot better
