Can you guys rate my skiing and tell me what to do to improve and how to hit the harder rails. I am also thinking of going to momentum ski camps. (i want your honest opinion)

Thanks!

Kinda hard to rate your skiing when you only do like 2 tricks

Learn to ski switch so you can hit the next feature switch
Also that rainbow box didn't look bad at all you should have hit it

This... If you go before you have broken the mental block that everyone starts with about not wanting to try new rails and such, you will learn a lot more.

Don't take this the wrong way, but what is the point of this? What do you want us to say? My guess based on the form of your shadow is that you've been skiing a couple (2-3) years and that you just started to hit rails and fool around in the park? Replaying the vid, by the time you actually hit the rail off the lip, there was only 1 foot left lol, kinda hard to judge your ability off that.

Anyway, don't care what other people think. Just keep at it and you'll get better.

Haha quite the problem. You can't go to a camp if you're not good enough but you get good if you go to a camp. Anyways, It doesn't matter your ability. They have stuff for everyone

Feet wide going up the jump, as you approach the lip put forward pressure on skis, rotate arms back and then snap and pop in the other direction, look over your shoulder and keep your body tight.

Try learning off side hits first so your doing more of a 270. This will give you the feel for rotating past 180

10 because you're out having fun. But real talk, don't be super stiff it looks bad. Style is more important than skill in my opinion. But don't care about what other people think just get out there and shred and have fun.

THIS I learned this the hard way i went with the mental block and learned very little, if I could afford to go now it would be so much better and I would have more fun! Get better and have more confidence before you do anything like this, good luck!

Just keep looking over your shoulder until you spot your landing
