sing a song in your head that will take your mind off what you are doing. make sure it has a good beat :)

 
'just do it'. if it's remotly within your ability and mental range just go for it.

Yea i think its best to sit up top for a couple minutes if you are goign to try something new, just visualize what you need to do and figure out what itll be like and all that. Then just think about something else and go and like the guy above said just think about it 2 seconds before the jump

 
When you're standing around pondering, they'll be a moment when you are seriously thinking nothing, and you just kinda feel and urge that tells you it's time, and you just start going. I've found this to be true for skiing and bmx.

 
visualize the trick, think through it, then tell just tell yourself to commit to it as you go down the inrun, don't think about it too much. think through it, then go do it right after.

 
Exactly, visualize the trick...but then again dont overthink it. Like someone else stated above, if it within your ability range, ie you probably wont get lost in the air and crash big, then you wont be too scared to do it. Otherwise just clear your mind, think about a song and get psyched, fuel on others' energy around you and suck it up and do it.

visualize definatley, and think of exactly how youll throw it of the lip

This is fuck'n burgertime bitch and this is fuck'n omar, so sit back grab your dick with a motherfuckin Gangsta grip, cuz this shit is for rizzle my nizzle
 
just get stoned, and have the buddy your skiing with tell you theres tons of hott chicks at the bottom of the jump waiting to suck you dick.

i saw it at teh mountain once...kid was stoned...buddy told him that....went off the jump landed the cork 9.

 
Just ask yourself 'what is stopping me from doing this?' The answer will either be skills or balls. If it is balls than just get over it and realize that you aint going to get shit done if you dont try. If your skills are stopping you from doing a certain trick than work on some easier ones first. Later.

 
yeah just doing it really helps... seth morrison told me this when he tried that massive rodeo off that giantic cliff at the end of the front line trailer.... just go do it instead of thinking too much cause thats when your brain tells you not to....

 
just picture everybody in their underwear....

I'm as close to god as you'll ever get.....

Word up to all my fellow wiggas.
 
bob dole is a fag. dont listen to him. what i do is go to the jump

-jon, skiing the ice so the other half of the country doesnt have to.
 
bob dole is a fag. dont listen to him. what i do is go to the jump at a good speed, when im like 10 feet away a trick pops into my head and i do it.

Visualize it... If you have to think about it to visualize it, it's probably not time. It should feel natural. You'll know when it's time. You'll be standing above the jump, then visualize it once, and be like, 'okay, I can do this!' Then you'll go, without even thinking about it! It's such a cool feeling! Just relax... You're more apt to hurt yourself if you tense up! And pick a good day to try new things, ie; soft landing, good visibility, nice jump etc...

email john smart (SMS) he has a sheet with all sorts of mental prep shit on it, its worth it if youre that worried.

smoke mad blunts and put on some headphones, listen to music that gets you amped to ski, and then drink a heineken or two, not so many that you get drunk, just enough to losen up.

go out with a group of friends and have a good time, the key to progression is having fun.

also dont overthink things, the more you think about a trick or a line the less likely you are going to try it. take a deep breath, clear your head and drop in, your mind and body ussually doesnt fail you. unless you are retarded.
