How much do you crash while in the park?

1-2 times a day, only park. Im skiing by myself most of the time and really dont wanna break both my legs and do handstands to the hospital. Pushing myself is just carving spins harder.

And im the new Twall.
 
i dont usually fall that often, i retardely tip over on a groomer or ride on box every couple runs
 
I've never not fallen while trying a new trick. For ever hike up to hit the feature again, there is one fall involved, most likely. So if I go down the park once, I probably end up hitting everything twice, which basically means I fall 40-50% of the tricks I do in the park.
 
l fall alot just bc every oe l try new tricks and combinations which isnt always easy, it is all part of skiing park you are suppose to fall to get better.
 
I'm new to park this year, so I'm falling all the time. I have 180s dialed, and have started getting 3s on lock with absolutely no steeze. If I try anything else, I'm gonna eat it first. Never too bad though.
 
i'm just back from an indoor shred and i'm happy to say that i actually pushed myself this time , i crashed several times on the kink box but ended up landing several nearly perfect hippy killers and tipdives+i practiced doing zero movement 180s and 360 and holding my grabs longer, definately perfected my style in those hours and only gotten some bruises and sore shins ...
:)i'm quite happy even tough the results are minor .... :D
 
i fall when i try to spin really fast on a jump ( 900 off a 4-8 footer. actually its a 720 with a little extra) i also fall when i 180 on surface swap 170 and go too backseat on my pretzel
 
falling isnt a terrible thing, dont get frusterated about it. it teaches you what to work on and if your tryin hard enough,
 
Put it this way: If you aren't falling, you aren't progressing. If I have a day where I don't have any bails, It tells me that I'm not trying hard enough.
 
in the park... like 5 times a day.... just riding around... 1 or 2ice..

epic powder day... i dunno.. depends.. a bout 1- 3

i like to say a crash a day.. not huge like. just a good crash.. is better then going a month with out crashing. and then fucking up.
 
And that's why haters hate. But i don't ever let it bother me and if it does I picture my newest edit
 
i fall a lot, because my din is low for when i learn new tricks, but when i get them down yet dont land perfect my bindings eject

on rails i fall mabey once or twice pretty badly but other times i may come off a little early and fall over or have one ski fall of the box while the other is on

 
If you're falling - you're pushing it, and progressing. So good work.

some days never, some days a lot. Most days I have one or two that hurt a bit and then I hit rails/the bar.
 
well taking vanular as an example, when i watch him ski around his home mountain (holiday valley) all he does are makios, flat fives and 180 blunts. cool tricks, but not super hard and hes got them on lock. no hate on vanular, but when hes just chillin he doesnt fall. i could do simple tricks all day and not fall too.

when it comes down to it, you never progress without falling. simple as that.
 
layer it up. sm, med, lrg, xl, xxl, xxxl, xxxxl!!!!

and i usually dont fall to the ground i just have sketchy landings and sidestop aqnd lose all my speed in jump lines. yesterday i went for a those tricks will and andy usually do in tc where they onefooter to twist the other ski ... you know waht i mean and my ski actually got stuck in the side of the box! i had to pull it out and it was less bent at the tip! it was pretty funny

can someone teel me the name of that trick please?
 
its funny that i saw this thread...
i went last seasn maybe falling 5 or 6 times in the park, but to be honest i was a pussy last year. this year i wanted to step my game up like i did 2 years ago and ive fallen countless times. its crazyyesterday i went to do a mute 3, a tweaked out mute 3, just off a 20 footer and at 180 i ripped my ski right off my foot... my din was at 8.5 too... it hurt a lot
 
I have those days where I land almost everything and fall maybe 2 or 3 times in a night, other nights I just feel like shit and I can't land anything so I fall maybe 10 times in an hour. Those nights I usually just chill and go find a closed run that no ones been on and just make a little jump into powder and have a little bit of fun with some friends.
