I am a late bloomer at 22 yrs old and have only been skiing a year and can pull 3's off smaller tables 15-20 footers pretty consistently as well as pull 180s landing switch and ride flat rails. Skiing is pretty much over here in the midwest where I live now and was gonna buy a pair of last years PEs when they are the cheapest but don't wanna be looked at as a poser on the mtn with twintips but not that good.
