I'm actually pretty stoked on this idea. I'm hoping for a level system (like beginner, intermediate, advanced, ect) so that it's not always something as difficult as a switch 10 japan (which Jossi does so well). I'd like to use this for rail jams/small jib comps at my local mountain, like first person to land the trick the dice say wins a prize, so making them all hard tricks would make that hard to use.

Sick idea, definitely seen something like this in skateboarding but will be sick to come to skiing, agree with difficulty levels too!

You can specify what you'd like your max spin to be (nothing more than a 360, for example). You can also turn rodeos/corks etc. on or off.

The reason a few of you have heard of this concept is because the Berrics started it (at least to my understanding they did), for skateboarding. Somebody posted a video further up of the skate dice in use.

This app is awesome. I have a copy of an early version on my phone and it's really well done. Also, the difficulty levels are really well done. Everyone from a beginner to Jossi will have fun with this app.

There was a game like this at windells, and each round if you couldnt do the trick on the dice you were out. Pretty cool idea. but i cant switch 10 japan so i dont know how good this app would be for me. Could be fun to use with the crew at the mountain tho.

Just downloaded, can't wait to actually use this thing. Turns out theres easy medium and hard for rails and jumps and you can adjust min and max spins fro jumps up to a 1080.

Its gona be a bitch especially when you get a trick thats "switch" and "un-unatural" . Can't spin a switch right 5 for my life
