How did all you bomb ass rail rippers learn to rip rails so hard? Did you mostly learn from setting up a backyard jib box? or maybe finding a rail at your local school or business? Or did you learn mostly from just rippin the parks at the resorts?

i also find a buddy the same level as you is fun to have practice with you because you can challehge each other to see who can do a certain trick first or wtv and you can feed off each other its very motivating and i find is better than practicing alone since i tend to get frustrated if i fuck up a lot and someone to laugh about falling on your ass with is always good
someone better can help too since they can offer you tips and show you how its done

setting up stuff in your yard was a really good way for me to learn for me because you are more at ease without any pressure. its also nice because you can build exactly wat you want to learn on so it will be easy for starts

Daydream in class about the trick, i swear if you can already picture what your going to do in your mind then your 70% of the way there
