what are some ways that i could bring my tricks from the tramp to skiing? every time i try something besides a direct invert (e.g. flat, misty, rodeo) for some reason i dont flip the same as i do on the tramp. how can i fix this???
 
just keep trying, that's all there is to it. If you want you can try an airbag, but other than that it's all up to you
 
The thing about airbag is so right. I had this problem big time with my cork 7s just because the weight from your skis throws off the way you set and spin the trick so its just practice practice practice because eventually you'll find that perfect niche or perfect way to through it or whatever. However i am a firm believer in the fact that you need air awareness so make sure u have the trick 150% on tramp first cuz then you know exactly what it should feel like
 
this.

When i was still not sponsored, i was really nervous taking the cork 9 to snow. like its pretty simple on tramp but after my friend tried it on snow he landed on his hip and wasn't able to ski or hang out for like 10 weeks. I was so nervous, I would always flail and just land a 5 like a puuss. But then I started wearing a first drop tee to jumpstreet. The length of the tee gave my legs more warmth to springload each jump, i got so high in the air i was landing dubs like no problem. So i took this first drop tall t to my hill, and hit the pro line, landed cork 9 on the first, dub nose rodeo 14 second and a dub flat triple grab on the last one. I was so surprised, there is no way im ever wearing anything other than first drop tall tees.
 
boy that was a neat story! i had the same experience but it has to be a first drop tee other whise your legs dont get spring loaded.
 
Airbags will help so much. They are so nice to practice on. Foam pits are good too but may be harder to find a foam pit you can ski into.
