Progression all about connections?

A good friend of mine was pushing his dub game last week with very little training. we all hit woodward for the tramps but with no pow this year, there was no room for safe progression without hitting an airbag. Here in summit county you have to be in Vails ski club or shawn white. back in new york, i was never allowed to hit the water ramps. summer camps are for little kids and invites only....
how should he make the next step?

I've heard the Windells Adult camp is all the fun of the regular Windells camp plus you're allowed to drink...If you can afford it, that'd probably be a great place to start. Otherwise, you gotta wait for soft snow, find a place that has a "pay per run" airbag, or just go for it (I don't recommend this option...especially for people over the age of 20...little kids are bendy and light and never seem to get hurt).

Cliff/Quarry jumping is great for keeping and strengthening your air awareness during the summer. I can't dub, but it really helps and is mad fun.


As far as puting it to snow, just keep seeking out Air Bags, Ramps, and Pow Days. That's the way i would go about it.

some mountains will bring in air bags for special events. even my local hill in southern ontario (which is a joke) brought one in for a week this season, so keep a look out.
