Replying to How do you prepare for FWQ events?

I am interested in competing in a FWQ 2* event. How do folks prepare for this? My current approach is to ski similar runs to the event venue in the morning and then work on tricks in the park in the afternoon. I try to pick various lines and ski them continuously as well as pick small drops and incorporate them.

Any suggestions are welcome. I am not trying to end up on the FWT, just trying to do my best in a local comp (for my own improvement in skiing).

If anyone could give me some idea of the skiing ability of 2* events that would be helpful. Can everyone who enters do double backflips or are there a lot of folks that can’t do a 3? I really have no concept.

Thanks for any suggestions!
