ok so im gonna be perfectly honest, im am not very good at park skiing, im not being humble i just honestly am quite bad. the hardest thing ive done is probably a frontside 270 off a flat box and it wasnt that clean. anyway my mom asked me if i wanted to go to a camp for a sport this summer and i jokingly said camp of champions, but she thought i was serious and said i could if i really wanted to and thought it was worth it :D

so my question is, do you think it'd be worth it for me to go even though im not very good?

i'd probably get waaaaay better but would i be wasting time and money because i wouldnt be able to do everything?

thanks.

The whole point of going to a camp is so you can improve. At a camp like coc you will be able to do so safely and you will have great coaches. It will definatly be worth it.

id say try to progress as much as you can before going there. u no, learn the basics; 3s, 5s and spins on so you can progress faster once your there since you dont have to learn those, but i think if ever you can get that, then if your moms offering, go for it!

i went to camp when i wasnt very good. looking back i wish i waited because i could do so much more now .. so if you are going try to get as good as you can before going.

If anything you should go because you aren't that progressed yet. Thats the whole point of a camp, to learn from others, being a great skier and going, your not nearly getting as much out of the experience and camp.
