I’m pretty ass in the park, I can throw shitty 3’s off small jumps and do 90s off boxes and thats about it. But I was wondering if It was possible to (in one season) be able to at least throw clean 7s. I ski at Killington so normally when the landings are icy, I am more scared to try new tricks.

Just do this.

If you do jumps all year you can go from a 3 to a 7. As far as getting it clean with grabs, it depends on the person. I would probably add another year.

I was like you, execpt I couldn’t even do 3’s or rails. And that was at the end of last season. This year ive progressed alot! Ive skied 20+ days of only park and now i can do spins onto rails, 450’s off of rails, 7’s with ease. Like if you put your mind to it and really comit next season you will be able to improve alot!
