Trampolines are good for practicing, work so you can afford to ski, and just get outside and exercise and have fun.

Arena sesh if you don't have a drop in, drink, go swimming, cliff jump, trampoline, skateboard, photography, work, and finally but most importantly troll NS 24/7. This is what i'll be doing this summer.

Get a banshee bungee, some turf, make a box and a kicker and ur good to go.

Other than that, tramp, skate/blade, parkour, find yourself a cliff or diving board and do some corkwork!

with all the snow falling in the west, especially cali, you should be able to ski @ Mammoth until July.

Get a Job and hit the gym. If you have extra cash to travel to comps, or take more time off to ski it'll be worth missing out on club beach to get extra turns in.

Also, getting stronger, more flexible, agile will probably help your skiing out more than anything else. I can guarantee you 99% of the pros spend a ton of time getting fitter in the summer in preparation for the coming season, or rehabbing nagging injuries.
