this thread isn't for making fun of other noobs... its for making fun of yourself when you were a noob. how was your first rail? first attempt at a spin? any one piece suits? put it all here... just share all of your noobish stories with the NS community.

I was a pretty noobish noob. I thought it was all about the straight airs in the terrain park. One time I even did a safety grab. Best trick ever done...

well when i first hit a rail, i thought i knew how to hit it, but i turned out that i knew nothing, i came up to hit the rail and i didnt spin the 90 on to the rail, and i ended up nutting myself pretty bad, it sucked.

I learned 3's on a ski vacation to Mt Bachelor. I was riding Atomic Beta 7's I think, those skis had carve but no fucking flex at all. Landing backseat killed me that week. I think at some point I had some Mickey Mouse skis or something, when I was like 4 or 5 and just learning...

I just taught a mexican from LA how to ski last night. We had him hitting a jump in 5 minutes. We probably should've made him practice stopping a little more cause he landed the jump but skied into the woods and hit a tree.

I was never a noob, because I never had knowing what wasn't a noob to compare to. Never seen someone slide a rail, switch up or 270 on before I did it myself.

I guess I was probably a noob at one point when learning how to actually ski.

when i was a noob no skis it was all about the 140 Dynastar course skis, Flexon boots, and nylon addidas track suits with no goggles.

When i was a noob on this site first thing that happend was igot into a fight with the original Mattman over our names. Havey, or the modds wouldn't change it so i stuck with it. Now i spend way way too much time on this fuckin thing.
