At all of my local hills..Inverts arnt allowed. I wanna try a backflip sometime next year but dont want my season pass taken. Sure..i could go to another place and try one at the end of the day, then it wouldnt matter if they took my ticket... but how am i supposed to practise it and get good if the place i cant do it frequently?

 
Do it anyways, just dont be dumb and do it in front of ski patrol.

and make sure you put a helmet on when you decide to do it...that's the first thing they will say (after they take your pass) if you don't...

 
My hill doesn't allow invert either. Wait until a time when there is like no one there. Make sure no ski patrol are in the area, then just throw it. Usually I only threw 2 inverts at a time this year, because eventually they probably would see you. So only do a couple each time out.

 
any way that will allow me to do em (or try to do em) more then 1 or 2 times a day without possible risk of loosing my pass? and i do have a helmet

 
get some friends to spot for you.

WOW you guys arn't allowed to go inverted. That's super weird. Even though I'm not good enough to do it I guess I'm lucky that I can atleast try the day I decide to do it. But the only people who wipe out and actually really hurt themselves are those damn Telemarkers who just bomb it to the jump. And my ski patrol buds incourage me to try it.

 
Ya, my hill is the same. But I dont really want to try any inverts in the park yet. Seems to me to be easier and less dangerous to hit the powder kickers and learn there. When I master some stuff off those, I'll try them at the park.

You could try talking to the hill manager/ski patrol or whoever about why inverts arent allowed, maybe they would change the rule if they knew people wanted it changed.

in michigan your suposed to have a liscense(like an arealist would have), and they are supposed to be illeagal. but we do them anyways,

all the time at any resort round here you'll see beginners nearly go inverted all the time just by sitting on the back seat taking off a jump, so if anyone asks just say you had a bad pop off the jump and didn't wana land on your head so you did a backflip

Head injuries suck!
 
That would work for backflips...but then they see you do it for the 7th time and wonder about it. Or they see you do a misty or something.

i ride at 7springs , and inverts aren't allowed, and it is a really unfail rule because it's really slowing down some progression. Anyways, just wait till ski patrol is clear or try building a jump in someones yard, or somewhere where the ski partol won't ski. wear a helmet, and COMMIT !! ......peace

 
You probably wont get your pass yanked if you do it once. I did a frontflip right in front of a patroller, all I got was a warning. At my local hill no inverts are allowed but theres hardly ever a patroller in the park, and we still bust out inverts with no worries.

i just had an idea...what if i take off my pass and put it in my pocket when im doin em..so that if im caught ill just be kicked for the day...not permanently. The only reason im so worried is some of the patrollers here are real dicks! Tell me if this is a good idea

dude they cant keep ur season pass... if anything just say yeah man i dont ahve a pass i hiked it up here... adn when they give you the boot, go home for the day... besides nobody really cares if u try it... if u think you cna come close, then fuckin go for it!!! fuck authority man hahaha...

'One day I'm going to learn something i swear'
 
yea..thats basically what im saying..just tell em i dont have a pass..or lift ticket or anything..so that im just miss the rest of the day

dude go up and build the day after your mt closes. then no one will be there and all the good spots are open to build.

 
First of all...just so you know its not the hill or the patrol who dont want you doing inverts, its the insurance companies (and alot of hills are lucky to get the parks they have) Try learning inverts on a powder hit you build yourself so you have alot more control of the size and landing conditions

Not much powder around here..but ill try...i just gotta get me a shovel, lol

yea we invert off kickers a lot, and i guess inverts arent allowed in the park but the patrollers figure if u are getting inverted in the park u know what u are doing so they dont really care

SPKA
 
yeah, like if u look like u have no clue what the hell you are doing u will probably get booted for safety issues, but if u look like you know what you are doing, there probably isnt a high chance of injury so they will just let you.

'One day I'm going to learn something i swear'
 
yeah man, throw a lid on your head and just be smart about it. ask people. dont you see people throwin em a lot? if not, just be careful where you do it, but make sure as soon as you attract a crowd to bail. they attract crowds if everyone at the resort sucks..crowds=more sfety issuses meaning ski patrol...and it sucks to get your pass takenmad ;-(

at my local hill they are not alowed eather, but if ya do it just don't tell everyone you are going to and when you do it, and as long as you don't kill your self the guys running it will just turn and look the other way and then ask you if you stuck it. its funny as hell

Tommy: I think i'll do a D-Spin

T-Bag: I'm tired of your D-spin's do a rodeo or something

Tommy: fine i guess that will do but rodeos are easy
 
why would you go hike a mountain after it closes just to throw a backflip????? just do it man, they arent allowed at my hill, but no one ever stops us, and dont do the hide your pass thing, alot of places will take you to court and charge you double the ticket price

Just get some spotters. A couple at the top of the park and go for it. Good luck!

in all of quebec inverts are illegal, but nobody care, its not like it stops u, if the ski patrol catches u, just tell them u didnt kno, like, it happend to my friend and they just made him write lines for an hour. they probably wont take ur pass if its the first time it happens

 
I remember once along time ago AT EDELWIESS there where these cool ski patrollers that in couraged me to throw inverts ; ) ha ha u know who u r.

 
At louie they arent allowed but at the end of last season (2001) there were a shit load of guys all chillin and thowing HUGE flips and no one cared

just do it on a day when there arent many people there.... mid week late in the season at louie there isnt normally a lotta people there nad the people there are all the locals that ride everyday....

ya thats my 2 cents

hey what you can do is just give your pass to one of your friends(if you have any) then just do and if u get caught just say u hiked. They might actually search you, better safe.

Stranger: Excuse me sir, did something crawl down your throat and die?

Barney: It didn't die!

Is your refridgerator running because if it is I bet it runs like you, very homosexully

 
man who cares if they want u to do it or not, freakin go out and try it, not much they are goin to do, most aren't a bunch of dicks, the ones around here just watch in amusement cuz they can't do it, even though we aren't supposed to.

 
Inverts are not recommended at Loon but they allow it, (they arent illegal in New Hampshire)
