Having a good time with friends. I don't handle the whole pressure thing very well haha. But I do have to say comps. push me farther than I would when I ride with friends because the people at the comps. ride at such a higher level than my friends so it just pushes me.

Comps. The adrenaline and pressure really pushes you to try new and crazier things. I like skiing with friends better though.

friends... yeah sometiems you will try to bust something new out in a comp, but mostly you stick to the shit you know in comps. When your with your firends you have a good time, and push each other, and then all go CRAZY!

Friends, but sometimes riding with friends gets everyone lazy...riding with someone ridiclously better than you makes me better.

Riding with my friends (who are all pretty badass) make me a much better skier. And riding in comps, normally doesn't make me better, unless they are jam format. The contests i was in this year gave me like 2 practice runs (whatever) then like 3 chances, then it's over. A soft day, camera out, sessioning with my friends is where it's at. and JAM SESSION rail jams are amazing. people, music, lights, and eachother = ultimate recipe for progression.
