re-learn all the shity tricks i could do five years ago (backflips, fives, misties when i'm lucky).

would like to learn switch rodeo 5's.

whacking off without a hard on seems like it would be an interesting accomplishment too.

Well, I just moved here from Wisconsin. So I'd like to ride at least 115 days again. I want to land my park crew job again at a major resort. Learn backflips. Maybe take them to rodeos. Learn spins up to 7. Build a backcountry jump. Ride Powder!! Learn back lips on handrails. And I still can't nail down tailpresses!

IGet much better and cleaner 450 ons. I want to learn all 4 450 outs. sw 5s, 7s. land some misties, fronts, lincolns, and maybe try a backflip(I get scared to try backies). More hippy killer/rollerblade looking trick combinations.

Land another 7 (was the last real trick I did)
Grabs up to 7
Switch possibly up to 7
Maybe rightside 3
Some kind off axis
Really want to learn 270 onto a rail
switch up on a down rail both ways
hand drags, but I have wanted to do that for a while
Hit everything in the park first run and actually do stuff (like 3's and 5's off jumps first run)

a front flip of a 45'er would be sick for sure.  that also reminded me that some of my goals are to hit 40+ cliffs and get comfy throwing threes, fronts, and backs off of 15-20 footers.

idk how the fuck you would do a double off the cannon box. but good luck, if they have it set up.

but i want rodeo 5 and 7. 9's and 7's dialed. switch spins and spin both ways with good grabs. take all my box game to my rail game, and step up my rail game even more. maybe dub front on a back country jump, and just toss more fronts and backies.

and HAVE FUN!

1) ski as much as humanly possible and still graduate.

2) Stomp cliffs in powder (finally found some good spots end of season last year without enough snow)

3) charge harder

4) late 180's, bio 3s,

5) ...polish donuts.

and maybe get my own car that gets better than 10 mpg but can get me to the mountains
