get some footage of yourself skiing, watch it back a few times and pay attention to what you dont like and what you like about your skiing right now, go out and ski again changing the shit you dont like a few times and maybe rewatch your film to really make sure you know what youre doing wrong and what youre doing right. Rinse and repeat
Repition, the more comfortable you are the more natural things look and then you can start adding in your own tweaks and flair for your own style. But unless you want your style to be sketchy 360s get comfortable with the tricks imo is the first step.
i change my style depending on the music. if i listen to Wu-Tang i feel like Dollo or some shit, if i listen to Travis Scott or something like that i'm all in New Wave.
Ski a ton. Get your tricks down clean to wear you don't think much about them. That's where your style starts to evolve. Maybe play some music or just try and get into a good flow. Relax and have fun.
Some people like Magnus and Wallisch said that their style is not organic, and that they look at other skiers to get style influences. I personally like skiing without thinking about it so the style is more natural. Imo the best skiing you do is the most natural for you.
Browse around some skateboarding, surfing, snowboarding and skiing to get some influences you like. That amalgamation will be your own style after you watch yourself on film and tweak it some

completely dead ass serious i bought vishnus and mittens and i cant stop doing the wabs hands thing. it just happens naturally you cant stop it and now i look like a fucking fool all the time
one thing ive noticed pretty much every good skier/boarder/skater/blader/whatever do is they dont change the angle of their elbows during a trick. you can move your arms at the shoulders all you want but pick an elbow angle and stick with it. i never know what to do with my arms so i try to remember that

Jesse_All you need are the 3 Cs
-Clothing
-Confidence
-Creativity
Or you could just blatantly copy a pro and you'll be fine.
3 Cs definitely. i see my “style” changing whenever i wear something different. if i wear a baggy sweatshirt i feel more confident and steezy coming out of rails. if i wear something normally fitting i feel i have no style.
Just in mY Opinion... style come up with experience, interpretation of skiing, playground, background, creativity and finally expression of all this is creating "style" Do whatever you want, how you want. It doesn't matter how many corks with "style" you land as long as you doing this to impress or to get attention and not enjoying the moment...First of all this is your time...Once I left recording camera on tripod in front of the rail :) to see what Im doing wrong and was repeating switch outs and 270 I was bailing a lot to haha but the funniest were the comments of park G rats which forgot about cam. The best were "how many times ...... " such a boring...." hehe and you know what? I don't care for me that was awesome day ! as long as Im in the mountains and skiing Im in heaven :) I changed snowboarding for skiing in January and love it ! used to skateboarding as well and now Im trying to express my fun with bails, fails included :) name your own tricks! someone had to named those existing cheers.
