huck it commit and stay tucked till you feel both rotations open later than you think you would depending on where you are in the air of course.

funny thing I've only been freestyle skiing for 3 months, if you look at my spins I still can't grab and spin at the same time I really I'm not that good the first day I went skiing was at jimmy and I got made fun of cuz I sucked and I was wherein a g-suit.

I wouldn't say you are bad if you have been freeskiing for 3 months and can do a double front...Just work on precision and the grabs will come. Don't try to throw 5s with grabs at first. Just hit the jump straight on and work on some grabs that way and work your way up to doing them with 1s or 3s.

cuz I am a fucking g, and I finally earned the g to my suit. I was told once they sell out they don't make them any more and I used to race so I sold 3 of my racing skis and got the $ that way. o I still race high school with my g suit on.

throw your spins off bigger yumps... that little one is pussy shit. Grabbing will come so much more easily if you have more time in the air to set your spin then work into the grab.

because he claims erything, and cant ski regardless, only trick is frontflips, not saying the dub front isnt cool.

and just cause park first year which prob isnt. he learned to ski racing, so has all the skill required

no it is my first year you can ask johnny and harry I met them up here this year I couldn't do shit. I have been in the park before but last year all I did was race, I lived in N.Y skied at thuderrige which has no park 350ft of elevation. I would go to killington and ski 1 week of park a year durring the winter break. this year I got my driver linces and know I go up every weekand. befor I never whent up to v.t.
1. yes I suck at skiing park and have no style
2. dub front flips are not hard at all just need balls.
3. I know I can't spell or write for shit, there are probly like 10 errs there.
