Replying to Is doing tricks on skis easier than on a trampoline?

So I ski one week a year. The ski vacation of 2014 I did my first backflip on a pretty large kicker, hadn't done one on a trampoline before. The ski vacation of 2015 i did my first frontflip on skis, which also was my very first frontflip at all. I would practice on the airbag a dozen times and the last day of the ski week I would do it on the snow. Anyway couple months ago I bought myself a trampoline so I could practice ski tricks throughout the year. It took me 4 months before I did my first backflip on the trampoline. It's as if you require much more precision on a trampoline where as with skis on you can just throw your body backwards, it just feels more secure. Is this true, or did I just get old & lose my balls?
