So the season's just around the corner and I'm sure everyone's stoked on what new tricks they're hoping to try.

Every year I think up what tricks I'd like to try but I rarely follow through on them cause I'm a huge bitch especially on jumps.

I'm going to post what I want to accomplish. Join in if you please. And at the end of the season we'll see how much we've all progressed.





Early season:

-All four 360s with grabs on a jump larger than 30 feet.

-All four 270s onto some kind of a rail.

-all four 270s off some kind of a rail.




Mid-season onwards:

-switch 540 both ways

-450 onto a rail or narrow box

-540 in the pipe with a decent mute grab

-unnaty slide to FS 450 off

-BS 450 out

I want to perfect my 5s and 7s.
Expand grabs
and hopefully some corks, towards the spring.
Rails especially, cause I suck at them.  I don't even particularly like them, but I will try to learn at least one swup and 270 off
and most of all
I want a Tahoe Pow Day.
Ill be there a few weeks this season  ever since last year, I have just been craving kt-22 and those epic tree runs in the back of northstar...

i wanna work on stomping tricks, i can land 3's swtich 3's and 5's but i rarley ride away super clean. im a pussy at rails so i wanna work on 270's on and off, and i need to work on grabs, all i can do is mute's when i spin. some reason my brain cant focus on spinning and grabbing, maybe i need to become more comfortable spinning and that will solve both problems.

also wanna do more backcountry, i push myself more when im landing in powder then in park. wanna get corked and take it to the park

any suggestions?
