Last weekend I tried my first misty 5, just kinda hucked it into some powder but still. I'm 14 and I'm wondering what age did you guys start trying these tricks?

No I'm behind most newschoolers it seems, an I honestly want to know if I'm catching up.

Catch up to what? Just keep working to progress for yourself. If your trying to "catch up" to a pro or competition level then you've got the wrong idea. People will start to notice if your riding really stands out.

This. If you're trying to standout as a skier, do what you want to do, not what other people do.

I'm 24 now and will not try to learn these...for the reasons shown in this thread lol. I do want to learn cork 3's though because they are so flowy and smooth. Not about to huck myself and learn stuff like kids do nowadays, or some of you did when you were 13 as shown here.

The correct phrasing of this would be "never"

Tried rodeo 5 first time when I was 16, didn't try that again till I was 18. But in the time between my go to trick was flat 3.

i didnt attempt an inverted trick until i was 76. id always been scared to do one on the wood skis we used growing up but by that point i figured 'fuck it, my dick doesnt work, the gays are getting married and ill prolly be dead in a year or so might as well give those plastic twin tippers a try.' i went for a misty 5, sent it to the gucci and broke both my hips.

Dont be a bitch and just do it. What ever happened to just hucking something on snow without doing it on a tramp, water ramps, airbag first?

You're only allowed to try a cork after your penis is bigger than 3 inches. Sadly, OP will never achieve this.
