you're good. at 13, you've got a lot of potential. I'd say definitely clean up those rails, and try to start grabbing your spins. Personally, I'd rather see a smooth 360 with a nice grab than a penciled out 7. btw the backflip was stomped!

i thought it was pretty good. Great if your only 13. On those 7's, you spin so fast! just work on your stlye/grabs like the guy above me said. Good edit

Haha, funny as that was my least favorite part! I can't stand the forced ride aways... I feel like it just looks like you're trying too hard, maybe it was a joke though I dunno. And if not, who am I to call it, style is your own... do it how you like. Kid, you kill it. I wish I could've ripped like that when I was 13.

you dont even need worry about being "good enough" to enter jib academy. its the most chill comp ever, you just ski and have a good time while getting tips and advice from the coaches.

that is some good shit. i have to say i got a good chuckle out of the first part just straight wipe outs. i wish there were more edits that showed people eating shit. its sometimes pretty funny and it also shows that progression is full of crashes. but you really rocked shit there! 13? christ.

on alot of your jumps you seemed to be knuckling pretty bad. go into the jumps with more speed. i would way rather see someone take a trick super deep then super short. also, work on your pop. on you backflip you looked liked you were going to hit your head on the jump.

which flat bar? the one after the box that fucking shoots you?

i was just at stevens and the park is so sick, i'm gonna be there for jib academy.

if we're talking about that same flat bar (in the right line) just take a fair amount of speed and throw it. as long as you make it onto the rail you're fine, and fortunately it's pretty close to the ground. i still haven't gotten a 2 onto the dfd box, but i'm sure it's not that hard, because it's less street style than i would imagine. and for switch ups, just dig edge, grip, pop, spin, land with balance...

Rails are sketchy but still sick, I still can't 270 out on a c rail, also that backflip was really clean, I can't do that.

you've got a lot of balls.  A future in the ski industry I sense in you.

DUDE!

i watched the first minute and thought you were a noob with some balls. but its REALLY paying off!

it looks like your stomping alot of stuff! your rail game is better then mine, tech. wise at least.

i love how theres progression within the video. ADVICE: try to throw some grabs in dude!
