Whats up with all these randoms doing triples?
The same as everything else. More people throw a trick, trick become more normal, seems less impossible, becomes natural progression.
Same with how everyone and their friend has a dub or 2 these days.
When you grow up seeing trips, 5s-9s become basic. That confidence allows you to nail those and work your way up.
That said ill never trip outside of EA Skate

Gotta get those boxes lined up to keep your rotation going fast

That shits just sad, like cmon you clearly just wanna be super amazing at any sport. My level of progression is garbage, Im just happy I can hit pretty much any rail feature after uhh 8+ years, and am stoked as hell to be a good all mountain skier. Hopefully 12year olds throwing trips will convince me to finally throw a backflip.

If you spend an hour dialingin distance ans the bloc height you can build a sick full width stadium jump with 1/4 after. Trips arent hard but landing is tough. Kind of as hard as getting dubs in skate 2.
Trip back is easiest but if you pop a 18p and hold forward into the ramp the cab fron and switch back corks look the sickest but are toughto land. Looks just like snowboarding.
Practice, practice, practice.
theyre all just super hungry kids who are most likely on teams or have coaches and ski everyday while training all summer. its just become casual, its the same way as like 5 years ago, every pro got doubles on lock, then the next generation got them years following and now theyre just all tossing.
Most of park skiing isn't so much skill but more based on being ballsy. So when you grow up and see dubs being landed daily in parks and quads landed in comps, the new generation of skiers have a different perspective from the older generations. The industry is bigger now, it's far more competitive than it used to be, and there are lots of young athletes who take it seriously and want to push themselves.
A lot of comp skiers now aren't the ones that casually bought their first park skis at 15, they're the ones that have been vigorously training for it since an early age. The scene has totally changed. It's normal that with these conditions, triples are just seen as regular now days.

you're not real until you land a quad in skate 3
14 year old (Richard Thomas) from my hill in Minnesota just dropped a triple 14 off the buttermilk big air jump for the first time.

I think so, I don't think he placed top three though.

you have to put something close to your path in the air because it will speed up rotation
heres a video because i suck at explaining
