finished my second season of skiing this year and i improved a shit tons. started the season just doing threes and hitting a couple FLAT bars and ended the season with
-cork 7's both ways
-270's on both ways
-hippie killers
-backflips - frontflips
-lincolns both ways
-right underflips
-rodeos both ways
-flat 3/5's
-270 continued k fed's
-switch and normal 7's
-butter 5's
-left 5's
-switch lip's both ways
-270 butters on
-2 450's off
-nugget 3's

and i tried some - a bunch of

-cork 9's
-left 7's
-450's on
-lip 2's
-flips of sides of jumps

anyways i'll try moving back in 2 years at earliest and we might take some vacations and i might be able to get a summer camp out of my parents. plus besides skiing i'd like to stay motivated to work in some career of action sports one day - preferably design and branding - and i got some sick ideas but gimme sum mor ideas for staying motivated like that and overall coming back to the northwest

We didn't need a description of every trick you CLAIM you can do, this isn't a "how much you improved last season" thread.

But if you need ideas to keep the stoke, buy all the ski movies, get a subscription to some magazines, work and save your money for some bomb ass gear or an awesome trip, trampoline a lot, skate, surf, enjoy Hawaii man! The stoke will come when you leave and get back to the snowier regions of the world.

Have you ever heard of skiing the volcanoes? There are people that go volcano-sledding and volcano-boarding. It's a lot like skiing a sand dune. You could probably get away putting a rail up there and then make an edit when the volcano is active and shit and it would be legendary.

This is from Nicaragua but I thought I saw one from Hawaii somewhere.

Came to post this. They can get snow on the volcanoes and you can go up and shred it for a little. Build a jump and hit it and the locals love it.

Yeah if you want to stay in the action sports industry picking up surfing if you live in hawaii is not a bad idea.

I enjoyed the huge claim fest at the start of this though. "I can do this, and this, and this, and yeah im pretty cool man."

thanks SAMmyPUTnam "this is my first" and i was mainly doing it to make up some time before bed and definetly thot u guys would think itd be interesting. sorry about putting up all the tricks i was just trying to put how much i got into this year compared to my first season - im not trying to be cocky or anything. Also FUCK SURFING - i really want to try avoiding a majority of things here - im getting a legit backyard setup almost any tramp i want and i might be able to get some windells sessions out of my parents. I'm totally fucking spoiled i'm sorry guys. and thinks for the big island mountain pics once i get my license im definetly gonna check them out. anyways keep going if u want stoked my first thread got on the homepage

Are you fucking kidding me. Surfing is the thing to do if you live in Hawaii, and the bitches! You will get so many more fine ass bitties surfing than you will skiing. Girls like sun a beaches, not cold mountains. I get having a backyard setup and shit, but come on bro why close yourself off to a huge wealth of fun and activities around you. Also, surfing will help your balance and therefore improve your skiing.
