Relationship from tramping to skiing

[MichaelAlsid]

On the tramp doing flat 5s and cork 7s and 9s. is it somewhat similar on skis, the take off and how it feels while your corked in the air?

its air awareness. getting comfortable being upside down twenty feet in the air.

Tramps definitely help most pro skiers like Bobby Brown, Russ Henshaw, Gus Kenworthy,etc. usually work on tricks on the tramps before they take it to snow.

try them cliff juming to. i find that being higher in the air helps me to stay calm when im hitting jumps during the season

Damn I came into this thread thinkin "trampin" meant somethin else. Ok carry on then.

just jumping, flipping, and spinning on a tramp will help out for sure. I think it helps a lot more if you really try to imagine you're taking off of a jump every time you throw a trick. think about jumping off the outside edges of your feet..........anything like that which will relate to skiing.

 

[soulskier]

it definitely helps the confidence as well

every trick that i can do up to 9's i can do on the tramp. air awarness is key in skiing
