Hey guys, first post here, I was wondering if I can get help with fronts. I'm going to try them this year and I just want some tips before I try to throw a few. It'll be my first flip trick, I can do them fluently on my trampoline. Help would be great, also is a lincoln basically the same on skis as it is on the trampoline. Finally, my goal is a misty 5 , should I just get the fronts and lincolns down and then just try to throw one? I can do them fine on my trampoline and I can do them off picknic tables and such.

After a while you'll want to scissor your skis probably but for your first attempt I recommend picking out a nice 20 or so foot jump and just fully committing and making sure to get out over your tips.

I love edel, when you go there, keep an eye out for the dude throwing dubs on the last jump :) Also try front flips off the first little edel jump! its not very big, so just commit! Or try it on the knuckles like I do haha!
