........you can ski, have been for about four years and are pretty good. You can jib - a bit, 180s, 360s, grabs and rails, all pretty steezey n shit. This year you are going to be skiing 8 hours a day, 7 days a week, for 3 months in one of the best resorts in the world.

The question is this. at the end of this season, what would you expect to be able to pull in the park (hot swedish bitch excluded), if you dedicated yourself to it 60-70% of your time?

Theoretically speaking of course....

dont think there is any set way to measure it, all people progress at different rates, some are naturally talented and others aren't, but if u plan on skiing that much this year u will definately improve a lot as long as u push yourslef

definately push yourself, but listen to your body as well, know when to stop and give it a break. Pushing too hard, and getting injured would suck.

Also, ski with people that know what they are doing. Most of the time, they can help you get a trick down if you're having problems with it.

if dedicate yourself 60-70% of the time, you'll do 60-70% of the tricks you wanna throw. give it your all to see exponential progression

i fit that discription except for the moving to the big mountain part, so for me i think i would be able to pull some big stuff, cause theres biger and better jumps and rails, u need people there too that can push u and feed off thier energy. so def. a 7 mabey 9 mabey a cork, 270 off, and a lincoln, so unless u get tons tons better i dont think its possible to progress more, thats quite alot from a 3

no, I'm not saying that you'll only be able to pull a 5 if you're going for a 9....I'm saying that you won't be stomping that 9 ver often if you don't give it your all
