just workon your 360, and make it pritty and what not. Then add a cross, then a grab and move on the bigger spins and fips when you're ready.

good job, I was so excited when I landed my first one off a real kicker, I thought to myself "man I'm like pro". then I watched a ski movie and cringed. But then again I didn't start skiing untill I was 18 and I learned 3's in my first few months so I thought I was pretty rad.

Just work on getting it grabbed or work on 180's and 540's it will be good for you to learn how to control the speed of your spin after you leave the ground, it will keep you from eating total shit in the future, if you search bar there has been some pretty good threads on simple ways to get yourself to grab.

First 3 was probably as satisfying as my first big cliff. After you ski for a while you kind of take for granted how much better you get, you almost expect too much out of yourself so when you do really cool shit you arn't even all that suprised or excited about it.
