It depends on the comp, at the US Open, youll see everything from the movies. At a comp I competed in back in WI, you would see everything from 180s to 900s to rodeos. Just enter a local comp, stomp your tricks and you wont look like a fool (a sweet 7 or 5 will look better than a hucked 9 or rodeo). And do it for fun, I had a great time just talking with the other competitors and feeding off their energy.

Big_willy made a great point.

Try not to get caught up in the lights and glamour of the competitons.

Do the tricks that you know how to do and land them.

If you want to know what kind of tricks other people are going to be throwing then you first must understand what other people you will be competing against and if they fall into your age group.

If it's a local small competition at your resort then look around your resort, if you are one of the better people there - then you will be fine.

If you enter into a huge huckfest that is going to attract people from all over then you better throw some huge tricks.

D-spin 9's/cork-9's are pretty much the trick that everyone's doing at the bigger comps
