Hi All! Im 18 years old and i can backflip and kfed. Whats next for me to try? A cork? I also want to get into powder skiing, would a backflip be a cool poweder trick? I just bought some armadas, should i get a probe?
 
Don't worry man, this whole sport ins't based on progression or style (some would disagree with me on that one, atleast have a good abang) but its about fulfilling yourself, its about pushing your limits, its about making yourself who you want to be, if that makes sense. Its not called freeskiing for no reason, its free, you can do what ever you want and no one can give you shit for it. And the reason why everyone is saying this is aids and whatever is cause there's not supposed to be a standard, unless your a pro (then standard is a quad by the end of 2016). Just be glad you can call yourself one of us, not many people can. But yeah learn a cork 7 you noob. :)
 
Just have fun... It's not all about progression. It has nothing to do with age, there's 12 year olds that triple as well as 30 year olds.
 
your first step to get into powder skiing would start skiing at places with powder. I'm not sure where you're from but for someone like me on the east coast that's not easy

Totally agree, its about self-satisfaction and pushing yourself to learn new things. If youre satisfied with backflips and kfeds then thats all that matters, no one can tell you its not good enough.
 
Hey whats up Nick! Im Dylan's Friend Riley. You should definitely get all your corks down and flat spins and if you want to get into backcountry I would be super consistent with 3's, and 7's. If you can do it consistently on a tramp the maybe you should go for a dub backy on a pow day.
 
Its all about going out there and having a good time with all your buddies and feeling the essence of winter in the mountains.
 
Just have fun. No one cares about how good you are besides the wannabe 12 year olds who wear there dads shirt as a tall t. As long as youre having as much fun as possible your set. Always try new things and be open minded. Don't sweat it man, it's all about the fun.

Also to clarify backflips don't look good in powder. That's a strict groomer trick only.

Yeah that's just a lie parents tell their little kids, backflips can be dope in powder
 
Perspective. Compared to who? Just do you. Doesn't matter if people think your "good", just send it. no need to ask of you know your good also.
