I think you've got a problem if you need us to confirm whether you're any good after listing your tricks

I think he is just wondering what level we would say he is. i dont know i am not to good either

Yeah dude, thats pretty good stuff to be doing so young. Just remember when you're doing stuff, its not WHAT you can do, but HOW GOOD you can make whatever you can do look ! Let us know...

Yeah, I'm around the same ability level, but I'm concentrating on style with those. Depends on how you do em.

 
Werd man. Way better than I was at 15. Keep going for bigger spins and stay stylie all the while- A sick 180 is better than an ugly 5 any day. And don't listen to these guys who make fun of you for asking- hell, I wouldn't do tricks if I didn't have anyone to show off to ;).

Yeah I just thought it was a weird question to ask. Of course you're pretty good for 15. The majority of people who post like that are just bragging, but it doesn't seem like that.

id say ur pretty good, but it really doesent matter, just ski to have fun and if that means doing crazy stuff or just chillin it really doesent matter as long as ur doing what u want.

 
yea bro, thats pretty respectable for such a young guy to be doing stuff like that. Remember that if you are looking for sponsors and stuff like that, that a deal can pop up out of almost any situation to any person. Keep ripping and people will definitely notice you.

 
thats decent, I don't understand all of these 13/14/15 year olds who come on here asking how good they are, or if they could be sponsered. I think they are just looking for people to sweat their nuts cause they are young jibbers. I say ski for yourself, have fun, don't worry what other people think, do your own thing

aww crap I forgot the n oh well, back when I was 15 youd get in shit for even thinking about entering the park and 360s were the biggest spins Id ever heard of. so trust me your ahead of the game.

 
You said it man. If everyone in the world could throw d-spins but me, I would still ski because its the funnest sport ever.

when life gives you a lemon throw it at someone

Birdy Birdy in the sky, why'd you do that in my eye, I wont fret I wont cry, I'm just glad cows dont fly.
 
dude, you shouldnt even think about that kind of stuff. i use to last year, i would compare my self to better skiers so therefore i would feel not as good bescasue i wasnt. it would mess up my confidence so i didnt ever really try anything. if you are doing those tricks now you should be able to start doing more technical and bigger things. its a really good start and if you keep progressing you will really good in another season. but it sounds like you are a pretty good skier

Yeah your pretty good...Dont care what others think. It took me forever to get my 360 and jibbing down. In Wisconsin (where I ski) Its all a bunch of snowboarding pricks that dont apprecitate skiers. I kept fallin on the huge rails and kept being made fun of! I just stuck with it, kept my head high and now I beat the shit out of them and stick my ski pole up there ass and wipe it with thier jacket! Just keep at IT!

you are good for your ability. lets put it that way.

yah man im about the exact same... cept i dont know which graab an indy is hahahaha. is that a safety? owell... yeah man dont ski for anybody else. when u go up there you are only competing against yourself.

'One day I'm going to learn something i swear'
 
its all in proportion to how much game you are getting off the hill. If thats good, than you know your doin alright.

 
Hehe.. I was just thinking... when I was 15, I was doing backscratchers and twister spreads...

*BOIOIOIOIOIOING*
 
never thought i'd get all these replys, but i WAS NOT bragging or anything like that. i wasn't looking for sponsors either, cause i know you have to rock for that. i was just wondering. peace and thanks for replying

 
I see man..You cant always compare to people at your local hill..and you cant compare with the pros, so compare with people on the site. You're good for your age. Keep jibbin

ski for yourself! damn, what the fuck is with all these people, our sport is turning into something were everybody worries about other people, and doesn't just ski for the fun of it

who cares what other people think? skiing is an individual sport therefore it should be done for yourself!

keep on rippin!

CAUTION! Poster just doesn't give a fuck anymore!!
 
ski for yourself. whatever makes you feel good, it's good. even if u suck at it, your newschooling and having fun, right? that's the spirit you should be seeking for and not an audience opinion. just have that 'i don't give a shit' attitude and go rip yourself.

Fear is the mind killer!
