Headin skiin tomorrow even though its gonna rain, amazingly they still got snow. the slopes will be shitty so im just gonna stick to da park. In the past two weeks that ive started park skiing ive learned flat and kinked rails, 180, safety grab, and iron cross. what should i try next? the place i go (Perfect North) has 2 tables (about 10 and 20'), kinked, flat, and c-rails
