Supp ma dudes
As an ex alpine skier I'm switching to freestyle ski and I whanna be cool and do triple corks ehhhmm
In my area we don't have parks so I have to practice tricks that can be done everywhere
On piste, small drops or some powder
What are your suggestions
I'm expert at skiing but on spins not so much
Thanks for the replies and stay safe 😘

Hit some boxes or small rails. Get used to spinning 90 degrees. Do some straight airs. Get used to hitting jumps. Add in a safety grab. Find a ski area with a park.

Could you convince a local ski hill to put in some boxes and rails? In the US, even the shit ski resorts have some terrain park features.

I could talk to some ski resorts as I guess I'm not the only one wanting to hit some rails
