    Backflip, frontflip, lincoln loop?

    Depends on the jump. Also depends on how you throw them. However, if you choose a jump that has decent pop, you'll probably find it fairly similar. However, your first few will feel really odd because you are traveling forward. It's easy to be disoriented. If you remember the basics you use...

    Blind side switch ups

    For starters, don't throw the spin harder than you need to. Often, we're a little nervous about getting around so we spin too fast. From there, the best way to stop your rotation is while you're still in the air. When you 270, fix your eyes uphill at the beginning of the rail, as if you were...

    Tripple flips

    Good thoughts, Rippy087. Not everyone has to like them. As for progression, it can come from style, difficulty, or creativity. The skiers I respect the most are those that do all three. It's all about being well rounded. I would see triple flips as pushing the sport, but just in a different...

    Blind side switch ups

    If you're sliding out, you're probably leaning uphill after your switch-up. Try thinking about putting most of your weight on your front ski after you pop around. You could widen your stance once you come around a bit too. Also, make sure you are spinning straight, not off axis. Finally, as...

    Tripple flips

    A few questions... Why is hate'n only ok when talking about aerials? (Not my favorite style, but those guys are nuts...) Why can we only do tricks that are "in style"? If you're supposed to ski for fun, why don't you just do the tricks you think are fun? (If you wanna bust a tripple, bust a...

    Help learning new tricks.

    yeah, misty's aren't too bad. They were the first off axis type trick I learned. Just depends on which way you throw more comfortably. Do spin or flip more naturally? If you're more of a spinner, d-spin or corked 7 might be your easiest. If you're more of a flipper, misty, underflip, or...

    Is skiing good for your body?

    Both...Exercise, balance training, endorphins released = good. Injuries, pounding on knees = bad.

    Help learning new tricks.

    Oh yeah, I'd recommend learning tricks you actually want to learn. All kinds of people are going to tell you what you should and shouldn't do. Just pick a trick that you would like to learn and start working on the steps to get there. You may have to learn some other tricks on the way but it...

    Bibby signs

    Any of you kids ever watch Area 51 and some of those old movies? There were guys doing double backs, flair-to-front flip, etc in the pipe back in 1998. Was even a guy who did a few at my local resort a year or two later in a quarter pipe. Doubles have been around a long time...They just...
