whats the best things i can do this summer just to help with the basics? i was thinking about making some sliding shoes. and maybe buying a skating rail...like a real one, so in the winter i can actually practice at a small hill rather than going to the mountain. im too poor for a camp. or to get a tramp.

ya, tramp, diving board gives you the sort of forward motion like off a jump, mountain biking is good for balance and getting some nerves to do shit, cause if you'd do it on dirt and rock, there's no reason not to on snow

yah lets be realistic, not many people have access to water ramps. anyhow, get like a summer pass at a pool, and hit up the diving boards and towers. and figure out who has a tramp near you and become friends with them.

My friend has this quarry right near his house which is protected by the cops (so only his family/friends can go), and were gonna make a water ramp into it. The rocks are only like 20 feet high, but rollerblading that shit is gonna be so hot.

i usually hit up a quarry with like 25 foot cliffs here in ottawa, but some guy died there a week ago, and another guy died in a quarry around here yesterday, so im guessing that the cops wont let us go into them anymore. but that hasnt stopped me before, so...

im planning on skating and biking more to keep fit. i have a balance board, those ones shaped like skateboards. they really help my skating. will they help with skiing at all, even though its shaped like a board? im thinking if you put your feet parallell with each other, its like riding skis. i gotta find some people with tramps. my mom wont let me get one :\

i was wondering...if i stand on my balance board with my feet together, perpendicular with the rolling thing under it, could that help with my balance on rails?

mountain biking like people said develops some balls, but as bad as it sounds fruit booting! I've talked to some really good skiiers who did it in the past and now KILL rails so Its always an option
