Landed my first 5 today!!!

good work! honestly so scared of spinning on jumps, however I keep progressing on rails did my first 27 on dub swap up the other day!
 
I can't fucking figure that out. I hve 3's and 5's on lock and can do them on fairly big jumps, but can't grab them for my life
 
i wanna learn frontflips and good 7s. i also wanna learn lobster grab 5s i got 3s with them on sunday! so stoked!
 
This feeling is what it is all about! This thread is making me soo stoked that i will going skiing in 2 weeks!

Thanks!!!
 
landed my first mad sketch five last weekend. took it deep into the landing off of a pretty small jump with a massive hand drag. needless to say i was mega pumped! haha, its fun, i'll try them off bigger jumps soon...
 
nice! I learned cork 7's recently (claim) and I was sooooo stoked. On another note, can't commit to backflios for my life...
 
here is a vid of mine, it was really tiny, but I was stoked. this was the second one I landed, first one was way better.

 
haha progression and the stoke from landing a new trick is probably the best feeling out there
 
@OP have you landed 7's yet? because if not they're obvi the next step after 5's. just set it a bit more and rotate a little faster and you'll come around for that last 180 no problem.
 
Tried 2 720s yesterday. On my first one I ate shit hard. Got to 630 and landed sideways, caught an edge upon landing and whiplash brought my head down to ground super quick and hard (may have a very mild concussion, idk). Went back up, tried another. Got the rotation down but for some reason both my skis popped off. Will try them again Friday. I was wearing a back protector though so I think it will be easier to spin without it for sure!
 
first 5 on saturday! so sick progressing is great but for me im gonna spin the "big jumps" (20-25 feet) at my mountain before i flip. good luck
 
The stoke is high in this thread :)

I'd like to get 5s and 7s down soon, been doing 3s for too long now.
 
trying to learn hand drag 3s. i've landed one, not really corked. a couple of my friends do them really well, they are such a sick trick. definitely worth trying, and surprisingly easy.
 
i did my first 5 two years ago, now i can cork 7, rodeo 7 and a bunch of crazy shiz keep working and you'll get there. Nice work bro!
 
A few weeks after landing my first 5....I LANDED MY FIRST BACKFLIP!!!!! haha

here is a video of one of my falls but about 3 trys after this i stuck it.
