So hey guys this is my first ever lincoln attempt on skis. It's on my trampoline though. My question is, my instincts make me throw the iron cross and I don't have enough time to land it. Now my skis did get surface chipped because of the landing, how can I prevent the accidental iron cross. i don't want to fuck up on the hill

It's been a few years since I've watched a moguls comp, but I'm positive an iron cross is a tip cross. I have no idea what that is called.

That safety make work. Don't get me wrong I think the cross with the lincoln looks sick, i'm just worried about messing up the landing and chipping the skis more. Although I will have mre time in the air for sure off a jump rather then the air I get from bouncing on my trampoline.

i say rock the iron cross, looks sick. Park skis are gonna get beat up no matter what, so just ride hard and buy a new pair when the time comes

you will either damage your skis or trampoline if you keep using them together. I don't really suggest using skis on a trampoline.

Yeah I'm not planning to use my skis on my trampoline anymore :P. I used them to get the feel of what the lincoln actually will be like on skis. If you guys say rock the iron cross then I'll go for it on snow this weekend maybe. (First ski of the year). P.S. a QUICK google/youtube search shows that nobody has really ever attempted a lincoln iron cross. i'm probably wrong but if nobody has then i call dibs on this being ma siggy. :P

Either way though, they're so similar that it doesn't matter. He beat me too it. It'll probably be my signature trick out of me and my friends anyway.
