Hi guys,

Whilst chilling at breck park today (second day skiing park ever) I had come to the realisation that my learning curve (rate of progression) is rapidly increasing...

...Increasing so much that I am in fact progressing "too fast" so to speak. After only my second day skiing ever i landed one of the freshest nose bud 3's I have seen to date. Cant upload the video because it was way too long but if I was to add 180 degrees onto that trick every week, by the time the season is done ill probably be really good. Now this concerns me because I don't want my rate of progression to be way too fast otherwise it could get out of control real fast. All u guys seem to hate on Guss, Bobby, Russ, LSM, Wallisch and Geopper for being too technical and advanced at skiing, and I am afraid that my learning curve will rapidly take me there, and I will subsequently receive a lot of hate from the skiing game yo...

Due to my high intellectual intelligence and advanced skill in mathematical arithmetic I was actually able to derive an equation that models a graph of my learning curve (in this case line). The graph function is y=(20.494^2)x

Now what does this tell us? Well if I keep progressing at such a rate, I will have exhausted all possible skiing tricks by 2020... I'd hate to be that guy hahah ;) but nah srs

Now if you haven't already punched that bad boy into your TI Nspire CAS Calculator, I can tell you now, it's a steep old fella, and I am writing today to express my utmost concern for not only my rate of progression but the future of this sport if I proceed to progress at such a rate

How should I go about slowing my rate of progression?

Keep progressing if that's what you like. However, progressing means adding style to your tricks too. Being able to do a really stylish 3 is harder then a hucked 7. The reason why some some people hate some pros is because at contests some judges just give more points to the person who spinned the most, without looking at style.

But I wouldn't care about any of these things and just have fun :)

Or you'll progress even faster

20.494^2 = 420

therefore y = 420x

Pick up racing, move to Texas, and live in a shack for a few years. When you feel like you've slowed down, go back out there.

Don't ever use the term "nose bud" ever again

Oh wait, that's how you increase your rate of progression

become a dad and sell life insurance. You will be consumed with dad stuff and your dad pants will hinder your progression.

I had the same problem! I started smoking crack. Occupies all your time! You won't have to progress. Great lifestyle. I just made a couple new friends. Drago, Carlos, and small Ryan. All heavy crack addicts. Just smoke crack!
