About that time of year

So it's about that time of year again in which people start trying new things. I'm wondering where most of you guys were when you started doing inverts. I have only been skiing since the middle of last year and recently have been focusing on my rail game a lot but I am confident in 540 grabs off of 30 foot jumps, is this enough to be ready for misty5 or a front?

it depends on if you feel confident enough to do them. can you do either on trampolines?? thats a good place to start.

Anytime is good, you just need to be confident in yourself.

all you need to do is just believe in yourself! If you put your mind to something nothing will get in your way of accomplishing that goal

Tried them on tramps and the misty was the easiest for me.. I guess it just comes down to nutting up and hucking it. I haven't had a committing problem in the past but for some reason I'm a little hesitant this time around.

then wait until you are comfortable and know you will commit 100% the majority of the time, if you completely commit, you will end up fine.

It all depends on those big balls between them legs. Man up and go for it...if you're confident of course.

My friend started trying them after only 5 days of skiing haha. If you can do them on a tramp then you should be golden
