ive jus started freestyle skiin in tha park this season, and i can 180/switch 180, hit most of the rails(flat/flat down) and all tha boxes (couple flats/rainbow/c-box/flat down) and do a pretty ok mute. ive been thrown 3's but i cant stick tha landing,but ill get it eventually. are there n e other tricks i can work on to help me progress quickly but not too big or hard?

try tricks youve never even though of doing...like for instance, today i learned that grind where you bend the knee of your backfoot inward so you slide the rail on just the edge of your backfoot (no idea what its called) and i never woulda thought of it. i just went on a box really slow and was like, this feels cool and did it.

I am in the same boat as you, except I suck at rails.

t3shellvenom- charles gagnier is a big fan of that trick, it is in a couple vids of his. You could try a blindside 180, where you look over one shoulder and then spin over the opposite ones. YOu could also try switch to rail, or 270 out. Or try 270 to boxes adn tehn rails. Good luck!!!

If your just learning start learning everything you do both ways. When you go for your threes switch which side you throw it to each time. Its something i wish i did when i started, cause now im getting to the point where i have to re-learn everything the other way.

best thing I can tell you to do is get used to putting grabs in with spins NOW. No one cares if you can 900, freaking everyone can huck a 9. Itd be more impressive to see a super stylie 5 with a grab

a backflip dude. your first backflips/inverts are the scariest shits ever. They are however, incredibly easy. Once you throw it, even if you dont land it, its a huge weight off your shoulders. Once you've gone inverted, a whole new bag of tricks is available to you. its not even about backflips, because they are stupid, and unless you're seth morrison, dont do them. its about getting over that fear man. say fuck it and huck it. whats the worst that could happen?? paralysis, death. those arent so bad.
