you got a cooler outfit, learned to afterbang a little, got a nicer camera, and got a nicer park.  that did actually make the second one look much cooler, but skiingiwise you just added a few 180s

gotta show some love to a heavenly rider!

you definitely got the rail game stepped up with k-feds, dont know if you realize but that same second grip for the bs27 on the k-fed is the exact same feel for blind pretz so you should start trying those if you have 27 on locked

and the way you pull your legs up for safety puts your tail right within reach so start trying to grip that shit and tweak. otherwise just keep reppin tahoe and progressin ya dig

you looked alot more comfortable with what you were doing. you learned to afterbang, your rails skills deff improved but you could still work on you jumps. to help with grabbing spins firt just do floaty 1s with grabs and once you feel like you can do them inside and out with you eyes closed [please dont actually try it with your eyes closed] then just start to set your rotation a bit more and work on adding the grabs to your spins a 180 at a time.

Great improvement, more on rails then jjumps but still better. The switch pond skim was BA and a couple times it looked like you were lined up for a pretzl, go for it!

personally i think you looked like a complete tool in the 2nd video because of afterbanging everything.





but your skiing was definitely way better in the 2nd edit.

well, you definitely improved on rails, but not on jumps really.

the kfeds were sick, and you had 2s on lock. plus as someone said, you learned to ride away like a g

rail game improved a whole lot now when you jump think knees to chest not heels to ass and you will get all those grabs you want by doing that it will be so much easier to grab wherever the hell you want when your ski is right there

i know i basically just said this but i watched the 2nd video again and your afterbang is the only thing that needs serious work. it looks like you land, then remember that you should afterbang and then make yourself look like a boner.

really? first people said not afterbanging looked bad and now people think there is a "correct" way to afterbang. honestly, most of the shots with the exception of 1 or 2 didnt look forced, it just looked like you were relaxed when you were landing. overall i though the second edit was a lot better, i like how you had a fair amount of switch tricks, the only thing that bugged me was the repetition of the same tricks. lots of fs 270 out and fs switch ups.

second edit was a THOUSAND times better. not to mention, and no offense, but that song in the first edit made me want to kill babies.

your rail game got waaaayyy better. just gotta get some variation in there now, that was A LOT of fs switchups and front 2s out. jumps. work on your grabs. like someone up there said. knees to chest, not heels to ass
