Goals for next Season

I'm taking next winter off with my girlfriend to ski a bunch and film street. I broke my elbow last winter so I didn't ski much, so I'm pretty excited to just get to ski a bunch. So is she. I'd be really down if we could film a good video and include some friends too. It's been hard to find people motivated to hit urban in the past year or two

Thats dope, its gonna be fun to spend alot of time skiing after not getting to ski cuz of your elbow. I feel the urban struggle as well. Its so easy to get trapped in a cycle of just always wanting to go to the resort but I think street is super rewarding if you have the motivation to get out and do it.

I feel that. Last season was my first season where I had to wear a knee brace cuz of pain and it made me realize that I'm not invincible anymore. ?
 
i’m looking forward to trying to learn 360s, 180s at high speeds and switch, frontflips off knuckles and maybe learn some stuff on rails. rn i ski at a resort with a very limited park so i’m hoping i get hooked up with a ktown pass

Thats dope. Knuckle fronties are hella fun, I literally learned them on the last day before my resort shut down cuz of Rona. I'm assuming Ktown is Killington?

Not blackout by 1 every bluebird day.

Based on your profile pic it looks like you are still running windows 98. Have you considered updating to a newer version? It could help with your issue.
 
My main goal is to have a season, my 2nd goal is to be able to do spins in slow-mo

Are you knocking yourself out or what yo ?
 
Last season and this summer I really focused on getting a bunch of basics down like all 8, 270 on, switch on, etc so this winter I want to add a bunch of shifty, taps, 50-50s, and just spice my tricks up and start developing a unique style sorta. Also another goal is to ski at least 50 days at the home resort.

It’s usually from drinking that good corn liquor to kill a hangover.
 
I’ll be real stoked if I can still go upside down. Skiing is starting to catch up to me physically and my back and other joints are fucked from old injuries. I can’t even jump on a trampoline anymore even if I stretch for an hour beforehand. My days of haphazardly hucking myself off of jumps are over. Honestly I’ll happily settle for unlimited switch 180s.
 
1. Travel the Northwest BC and scale some new mountains. Explore Terrace and Smithers.

3. Overnight winter camping. I want to try making it to Gimly in the valhallas.

2. If the Covid 19 restriction are solved and Skimo Canada can put on events; do 2-3 races.

3. Land a new trick if conditions permit. I want to land a 1080 or a double backflip.

4. Quit smoking
 
since I barely skied park this year I’d like to get out a bit more than work brakes, trying to land some doubles finally and just feel satisfied with my life of park skiing and just fully switch to finding my own natural lines to ski. Gonna be touring plenty again and trying to get a little movie going with a few homies, got plenty of options with lines in mind already. Hopefully rona just allows for a full resort season, spring touring is super nice but when you end up missing the corn and it’s glue instead of lapping with friends and cans it kinda sucks, oh and so the backcountry isn’t so fucking crowded.
 
1. Last season had some injuries, I don't want to exacerbate said injuries, particularly my back

2. Take it nice and easy at the start of the season getting into the feel of it and get strong

3. Exercise outside skiing to be in good cardiovascular shape

3. List of Lines: Broom Closet, skiers right; High Speed Double; Death Chute; Forbidden Zone Straight line; Flux Capacitor; Single the hanging bowl double

4.Tricks: Get the 3s on lock, just was learning them before COVID hit; backflips, practice on pow days, and then get to sending them in the spring on the wave; switch 1s off of drops, phat nollies if my heel spur is healed; maybe a double if I'm feeling good at the end of the year and there's a late season pow day, maybe 5s too if I get my 3s on lock

5. Be more fluid, carve better, get switch carves down both ways, get more comfortable looking over both shoulders

6. Get up to the mountain by 9 each day I want to ski, I hate those days you get up at 11 and are like fuck, I could have been skiing 2 more hours today

7. Ski with good friends and have good times at the Peruvian

8. Find a cute skier girl who rips to ski with, problem is they all ski at Alta

9. More radness yells, singing in the liftline, and generally being the goofball I am.

10. MOST IMPORTANTLY: REDEMPTION ON THE FUCKING SWITCH POND SKIM. THE REVOLUTION IS COMING AND IT WILL BE TELEVISED

11. Get drunk as shit and harass the patrons of Deer Valley, but in a fun way

yeah killington. my pass only gets me 2-3 days at killington and a normal pass to Pico, not complaining but i bet i would progress faster with the best parks on the east coast
 
I wanna ski Mt. Superior. My buddies did it last year, said it was all-time. They wanna go again but covid has them in different states now. Down to go with anyone thats done it before on here
 
To explore new mountains, moving once Covid clears.

Go have lots of fun with friends and family

Not to get hurt

Ski til I cant ski anymore
 
In all seriousness I really want to get into touring mainly as exercise since I'm on the east coast. Probably throw some daymakers on my J96s and go for it.
 
Get close/over 200 days to make up for this travesty of a 19/20 season. Only got 110 days in. Super weak effort. Not totally loosing hope of getting down to SA in late Sept to close out their epic winter happening right now.
 
1. Ski every week from first snowfall to melt

2. Be able to 360 just about anything

3. Learn a few new grabs

4. Tour weekly

5. Ski tucks at least 3 times

6. Do some car camping overnights

7. Dont die
 
Well this is exactly my plan, haha ... :)

2.Fastslide frontswap backslide

3. Super man front flip a road gap

4. 1080 and 1260 (both ways)

Yea switch on might be the move. Hopefully I won’t break all my ribs. I want to do it on a flat to down rail because it would look lame on on just a flat rail.

Ya hackel did that trick in his real ski I think and it was sick. I think if you surface swapped on a flat rail it would look good tho
 
Would it be feasible to land a 720 next season?

i havent landed a 540 but I have 3s pretty down and ive landed flippy cork 5s

i feel like if I dial it on tramp it's definitely plausible
 
Never really got into park so getting comfortable on rails and improving tricks and learning tricks I can do out of park. Who knows, it might turn me into a park rat.
 
Now that I have proper length and more stable for me skis and lost weight, my goals are

1. to get on some different rails than the flat wide boxlike ones

2. hit bigger jumps than the baby ones in the beginner park

3. try to do 360s, do shiftys, 180's..

4. ski / land more in switch..

5. get more ski days than last season (dumb covid)

6. build a setup in the backyard since I will soon have a space to do so

7. just plain get past the mental block and just Try Stuff!
