Replying to How to tell if you are a mediocre skier

I pick some pretty gnarly lines on the hill
I always get hoops and hollers especially when I send too hard and crash
I can shred double blacks
I once made it onto Mt Hood Meadows website and am shooting to be on the trail map soon (goalz)
I can send 3’s and 5’s with various grabs including but not limited to Blunt, Safety, Stalefish, Mute, And Japan
Can’t really do any good jib tricks (I was fortunate to grow up out west where our superior Parks are not the only option)

I still feel like I am not the best skier on the mountain and I fact I feel like everyone else on the mountain is just as skilled or more skilled (especially the little shits on the freestyle team) and it really makes me feel indifferent, not unique, not SENDY enough,

I feel like Patrick Bateman from American Psycho.

What seperates the die hard pros and shredders from the mediocrity? What are they doing that makes them so not mediocre
