i just learned to five, i have been skiing for a month. wondering what would be some cool new tricks to do on jumps and rails.

jumps- 1, 3, 5. what should i do? spin more?

rails- pretz 2, blind 2, pretz 4, both switch ups, swivels and swaps and stuff like that. what should i learn or progress for rails?

thanks.

Grab when you spin, I would rather watch a kid throw a nicely grabbed five then a shitty hucked nine.

Work on both, and that's good for only have been skiing for about a month.

Try to get 7's or clean up your 5's, throw in grabs and what not.

Get clean at rails and try blind and front 2's out.

Good luck.

Learn unnatural 1's, 3's and 5's. The sooner you do it the easier it will be.

start goin for some flips. start with a frontflip off a small ledge into powder and just roll off. once you get some balls built up you can start doing them off jumps and get into backflips.

After one month? I doubt thats humanly possible. But try some inverts and work on grabs.

this is purely a claim thread...most people would do what felt natural for progression, some kids just want to claim but make it look like they're asking for help....

How dare you! My boy Todd Walnuts is the very best like no one ever was. To stomp tricks was his real test, do bang them was his cause! He will travel across Mt. Hood searchin' far and wide, each dub to undertsand. The steeze that's inside! Tommy Wallnuts! It's you and me! I know it's my destiny! Tommy Wallnuts! Ooh you're the best pro! In a world we must jib up!

If you're grabbing mute on say a 3, when do you go for the grab? As soon as you're in the air? at 180?

make sure you set the spin right. going for a grab can cause you to go off axis. but do it as soon as you know you set the spin right

spins without grabs are not tricks, and you can say you can do a five when u can do it with atleast 3 different grabs

i started skiing three months ago at the end of the season, the total amount of days i went skiing was 28 days, so i have been skiing for only a month

but i can grab my threes and fives. mute tail nose and safety grabs. so just work on style in the air and spins and inverts? i did like five lincolns into pow and can backflip small jumps in the park. yeah i can pretz for for real, didnt think it was that crazy to do,i just scissored and spun my shoulders off a slight canon box.

i just love skiing and the park, i want to progress myself to do some sick tricks and want to look good doing it. but i do it for myself and the love of skiing because its the sickest thing to do out there.

and yes. i can ski outside of the park.

Raz... Not saying your lying or anything, but when i was up there last, you couldnt hit a jump... You said you were afraid (i'd be too after only skiing a month) let alone 3 or 5. I know you can 3 little 10ft jumps but really? saying you can do a 5 with a mute tail nose or safety grab? tht cant be true. The only thing is, u were going those 2's out. But you couldnt switch up, let alone 4 out...
