Im calling it, this is the year of the taps. Tail taps, nose taps and switch up quick kicks. My roomate has corroborated this hypothosis this by wathching nine people in a row at Loveland do some variation of the aformentioned. Your thoughts....

how about just a year of progression in general, style, real rail tricks, everything. expand your trick bag everyone instead of trying to just go after the "hottest" trick or style.

Well, what if the hottest trick or style is hot because it's fun? One can only expand their trick back so much.

MFM does a sweet one in the video Optimistic?  I am pretty sure they have always been cool.  They are fun though, very fun.

Willy Wesson is the man at taps, tail to nose 180s out and what not. Take a look at UT vid, and check out meatheads new movie becuse he does alot of crazy taps and rail tricks. http://www.lineskis.com/#/skiers_union/videos_and_stories/51
