Thought this would be a good idea to get people thinking about what they want to learn next winter and get them stoked for it at the same time. If this is a thread thats already been made I apologize. I just figured it'd be fun.

My Goals Are:
Learn to Spin switch leftside (my natural is sw right)
To do some sort of a double.
To get both way 2 on pretz 2's on an urban rail.
Superman fronty off of a cannon box.
To put an edit out for the superunknown contest and get honorable mention or finalist.
Win a comp or two.
And to meet new people and have the best winter yet!


What about you NS?

Pretty much get single corks down. you don't even have to know how to land them just how to throw off the jump.

get a big jump. throw over and down on your first rotation, when you come around for your second flip just throw your head to the side, like a lincoln.

I plan on building a 60 foot+ booter in the backcountry and trying it off that.

Make a solid edit with ONLY tricks I am proud of, no filler shit.


And I really want to find a way to get hooked up somehow. I really think that my style has gotten pretty good, and I am making it better. I will just have to find someone who won't care that I don't have any tech tricks at all.

I think my priority is really working on style. Then progressing with cork 9's and 10's. Maybe some unnatural corks too. I'd also love to get some double flips.
