meh idk blind 4 probably took me about 20-30 tries. for jumps it probably took me 50+ times to land a 360, but i was in 3rd grade and didn't know how to pop off jumps or use my edges.

when i first started freeskiing, it took me forever to learn 3's. I had a mental block with spinning and I just couldn't do it.

But more recently, this season, learning misty 4's really beat me up. The rail was massive and thus it was the most scared i've been for a new trick in years. It took 3 days for me to get it trying about 2-4 times a day. The reason i tried so few is because I got wrecked most times i tried and had to call it a day.

It took me forever to get 360's. I've also be trying to get 9's for like a year.

first front 2 out or sevens. sevens are weird because they're completely different than a 5.. unlike a 3 to a 5

5s. Some kind of mental barrier I had always made me stop myself at a 360.

Spins off jumps never gave me much trouble. I got 3's 5's and 7's first try. Spins off rails though, that's another story. Learning front and back 270's off took me forever. Probably 20+ attempts

literally landed the only 9 i've ever tried. just do a ton of 7s on a nice big jump then go for that last 180 when you're feeling good.

For whatever reason, any trick off of a jump gives me trouble, but that might be because I live on the east coast and hit rails a lot more. I got my first front 2 on my first try but 3's must have taken me at least 30 tries.

Lotta people saying blind 4. Claim alert but it took me 2 tries. Front 4 however I have yet to land. That being said I have only tried them a hand-full of times. K-Feds took me waaayyyy longer than it should of.

Cork 7's. I landed my first one two years ago and I've only landed a couple since, I either loop out the majority of the time or do some weird back full thing.

Also any blind rail trick. I can front 4 almost any park rail but barely do blind twos unless its a flat or up rail, they just scare me and I never commit.

It took me absolutely forever to land any spins out after swapping a rail. My first one was a britney and I still don't land them too clean. If I remember, it took me an entire day of hitting a rail to even get one.

Fucking downrails man. I could 2 pretz 2 on flat bars, but the second the rail was urban-on/tilted down I got fucked. Took me probably 15 tries to slide the whole thing

3s for sure. I landed one or two early on, but the more I tried the harder I hucked, and most of the time I was spinning before I got to the lip, and rarely popped. Finally got them consistently at the end of the season, but damn that was annoying! Hoping to progress a lot this summer at Liberty Snowflex!

Basically anytime that I try something new on a rail it takes me quite a while to land it, especially more tech tricks, they can be such a bitch

urban quad kink around a pole, came back to it 5 times over 2 years, hit it well over 100 times.

I've shown a few people where it is and they've hit the middle and right side
I hit the middle as well with not much luck, been there every time its been hit

Any god damn spin off a drop into pow. I think I did at least 20 ones off of this stupid five footer at hood. I'm aright with threes and switch fives now. But that god damn first day of landing switch in pow. Fuck that day.
