I will be honest. In 1 year I went from kinda being able to ski switch to being able to do 3s easily and even topped off my year by hitting a 50 foot park jump and attempting a hand drag 3 off a knuckle, and even though I didn't do a butter triple cork 12 off the jump it was one of the most satisfying things I had ever done, same with the hand drag 3 attempt (even though I landed on my back all the way on the flat and got a massive bruise.)

this was my best season definitely!

last year i did: flat 5, rodeo 5, rodeo 7, regular 7's, and some basic railtricks like k-feds and brittanys.

this year i learnt a "couple" of new tricks: cork 720, cork 900, almost cork 10, flat 7, lincoln/flat 3, double lincoln/double flat 7, 270 on, lip 270 on, unnaty 270 on, unnaty 270 off, unnaty k-fedn unnaty brittany, unnaty switch up (both ways).

so yeah this year was ILL!!

Ive had more fun than last year!

this year I focused on deeeeeep powder. I can send longer lines and stomp bigger hucks. I learnt the hand drags and shot awesome footage. Every year I progress in a different aspect of skiing!

360's definitely were the toughest to get down. took try after try, i'd land one decently and be stoked and then go on to fail on the next 10 after it. first one i attempted i made, but couldn't replicate it

then having the confidence to hit the big jump line switch was a big progression for me as well
