Misty 5

front flip into some powder, you'll be surprised how easy it is. If you want to misty 5 make sure you get a decent amount of air. Other than that just send

Should I post the vid?
*when I do it*

I learned a frontflip when I could only do sketchy 3s. It’s probs not the easiest flip, but there is like literally no consequence to falling and it’s not that scary as far as flips go. Find a sharp knuckle and pop off one foot and huck it around, worst casinario you land on your back and most likely just pop right back up as opposed to landing on your head.

ive never done a misty 5 so I can’t speak for it but I’ll try one this season

dont set it too hard cause it will be easy to overdo it on a 40 footer. misty 5 is the only respectable flip on blades and the first/only one most bladers learn so fuckin huck er

Backflips are the go to first flip

Front flips are pretty safe. Try it first. You don’t know what it’s like to misty with you tips in the way.

DemillstaBackflips are the go to first flip

Yeah but I want to look back in retrospect and be able to say the misty 5 was my first flip
Although, if I stomp this misty 5 first try ill huck a big laid out backflip first try just for the boys. I'm going next week or weekend.
lets hope for no hospital visits.

Yeah thanks for the advice guys, I still want to go for the misty. I will keep in mind to not over throw. We don't want no misty 7 to face slides.

Mistys are really difficult on skis. do flat 3s if you are scared of backflips... but backflips are the easiest.

I hear ya. I will be posting the vid friday! Thanks for the tips guys!

DeadBI hear ya. I will be posting the vid friday! Thanks for the tips guys!

Post it here, Misty’s aren’t that hard. It’s throwm exactly like you think it would be. Good luck.

STEEZUS_CHRI5TPost it here, Misty’s aren’t that hard. It’s throwm exactly like you think it would be. Good luck.

Will do. I'm heading to a gym wed to fresh up on the flip.

Update.. Due to the extreme cold I didn't go (I was I will ski any weather, brother wouldn't come didn't wanna go alone) Will still post vid as soon as I get the skiis on or canada stops being -30

Misty and backflip are good firsts

STEEZUS_CHRI5TFront flips are pretty safe. Try it first. You don’t know what it’s like to misty with you tips in the way.

Yup this is exactly what happened, I did it off a fuckin little 8 foot jump and couldn't bring it around. Another thing I learnt with this... Skis are hefty to bring around in the air, I did like a 90 to Lincoln and landed on my back, I couldn't see jack shit. but I like backslapped and ski'd out (camera man didn't catch it). This was the last run so I hiked up a little bit and tried to hit the 10 foot jump and just throw harder/pop harder, I ski skate ski skate ski skate and I've got like no fuckin speed, so I said whatever I'll make it. I kinda half pop but was decent enough to go with I throw over shoulder (again this time can't see shit, ill go with the feel) I get about 100 degrees upside down comin down, waaay not enough speed I'm landing in the racer knee suck zone. one of my tip gets caught on the knuckle and I go bouncing down the landing, kinda on my head but whatever didn't hurt. TBH I almost brought the second one around, I feel if I opted for a larger jump or had more speed I would have stomped it.

I'll keep at it though, got the fear out of the way thats whats important. And honestly for anyone who wants to do flips but is scared, throw it that shit was the funnest I may have ever had on skiis and I haven't even landed it yet.

EDIT: The rotation felt right, maybe more inverted then I should have been. Like my skis are supposed to be level to my head not over right, I haven't seen the clip in a few hours so I don't know but any advice on the rotation(or the half of it haha) would be dope! thanks!
I'll post the vid in a sec.
P.S next time I'll head your advice.

..

alright looking at this now I can say I didn't almost bring it around, maybe off the bigger jump. Another thing I fucking tucked way to early like on the lip, I think I did this cause I had no speed and the jump was puny. Still a success in my book :l

good shit bro but you gotta pop there

claim

TRVP_ANGELgood shit bro but you gotta pop there

Yeah haha next time man.

I think I didn't cause I thought i'de hit knuckle if I did I had no speed.

It's ok to straight air a jump if it's not feelin' juicy on the approach my guy

https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/932121/233AA859-1CE4-43F0-BC47-0BBA1EA4426A-MOV

You are going to want to pop and throw hard from there imagine it like a side flip the add the extra 90°. I suggest doing it on an extremely poppy side car or something.

BiffbarfIt's ok to straight air a jump if it's not feelin' juicy on the approach my guy

It was my last run of the year.. I HAD to throw it.

I haven't done Misty 5s on skis (tried them a lot on trampoline because I also wanted to throw some this season), so take my words with a grain of salt -
In your video it seemed like you threw the trick a little too early before leaving the jump. I've seen this a lot on frontflips or backflips where someone's rotation is super slow or they get stuck upside down because they are anticipating the trick and huck too early. In fact I think I've done this before on backflips and gotten stuck upside down. In a lot of tricks you really set the rotation with your hips and torso so you want to make sure those parts of your body are setting your motion right as you come into the air.

If you make that change and get a bit more speed I'm sure you'll be landing it in no time, congrats on getting the courage to try, I bet it'll look cool when you land it!

Ditto aswell with the trampoline, I guess I didn't really anticipate really how heavy it would feel to bring the misty around so I thought I could just bust it out super quick with no real drive other then arm and head. I'll be back at these in november busting them out, I want to be able to cork7 by the end of next year.
And yeah rewatching the clip I can say that I threw it way to early. like if you pause it im still on the lip when I start to go invert.
