Describe first.

10 years ago in 1997 i landed my first 360 off one of those little joey booters on the side of the trail. I was psyched for like two years after that.....P.S. i was 14 on 186 straight skis
 
i remember my first 360 really well too. and same with my first backflip attempt and first time i landed one.
 
i remember my first 3 and my first rail, i remember it took me all day to clean this battleship rail i just hiked the same rail all day long and like 30min before the mtn closed it got it all the way like 3 times in a row i was crazy stoked
 
1999/2000 - grinding a log. thought i was just being silly doing the same thing as boarders

2000/2001 - sticking my first 5. on single tips on a legit jump. Thought i could conquer the world and was so pumped I threw a 3 off a cornice and ate shit

 
3 years ago... first sw 7. I was super stoked cause I was going for the 5 and made it by mistake and next run tried the sev again and stomped it... and got caught looking at my sweet pass and got blindsided by the barn at sunshine.

my advice... claim all you want, just watch where youre going.
 
last year i landed my first 9. it was awsome i tryed it 3 times the night before and kept washin out at almost 9. thats when i was like screw it and came back the next morning warmed up for like 5 runs and gave it another shot and stompt it first try i was sooooo super excited that i leaned to far back and got caught in slush and fliped back it was awsome
 
when I was 11 I did my first switch 5 and then for some unknown reason I didn't start skiing seriously again till 14
 
my first 5 was epic... i tried them for soooo long and stomping the first one was just amazing...

and when i was learning rails... took some gnar biffs on those... but now they are my fav... i love rails...
