Trick Progression

1st year of park riding..

180->box->shotgun rail->270off->'unflat' boxes->flat rail->'unflat' rails, by unflat i mean like flat-down, etc.

i cant spin for the life of it but i can straight air everything at my mtn
 
your first year you ski with no poles and throw everything you think you can't do and you do it real ugly. next year pick up poles and make your tricks a little cleaner but keep hucking everything. it's the only way to get good fast.
 
this year i leartned a 180,360, 540, backflip, rails, boxes, and im trying to learn a misty on friday, sat, or sunday at mount snow, this is my first year of park bro just go for it
 
for legit park skiing, like normal jumps and that stuff i started with 3s, then worked on 1s and 5s, then started unatty 3s and 1s and 5s, then i started trying to cork stuff, once i got that down 60% of the time everytime, i moved to working on pipe and getting big straight airs, 5s on both walls and alley-opps on the left wall, i never worried about rails, they were something i knew i could pick up in an afternoon,
 
this year i got the 180, 360, 540, a lot better at rails...270 on boxes, disaster, goin for linclon and backflip friday.
 
yea just get stuff smooth and then try inverts and corks and stuff

Just this year i learned cork, sw rodeos, misty 7-9 almost 12 and spins on to rails.

so i guess you just have to do whats comfortable and go for it if you want and skiing without poles is fun and makes you grab more and do better ones then later+ poles

and yea

 
you're doing a misty without having done a frontflip!??!

or do you mean you are trying a rodeo?

whateves mine went:

straight air boxes, jibbed boxes, switch offs, 270's on and off, switch ups (still workin on those...)

at the same time:

straight airs on jumps, 180's on fuckin.. everything, butter 1's, 360's, backflips, 540's, sw. 180's sw. 3's, sw corked 3's, 7's... and with each spin id throw in a trucker or a mute or tailgrab

mmmhm

 
first year (15 days)

first straight air, then straight air with grabs, then 360, then 180, then grabbing those spins then boxes, then rails, then kinked boxes and rails, switch 1s switch 3s, then cork 5, and then cork 3

Second year (this year)

tails, blunts, mutes, critical, nose, double tail, added these grabs to my spins w/o dubtail, 540, 720, switch 5, spin off rails and boxes, sw ups, spin on boxes, spin onto downrails, spin onto flat rails, tail press, butter, rodeo, flat ground front flip, backflip, front flip, nearly cork 7 and nearly bio 7
 
1st year - straight airs and tailgrabs. 180s off small stuff.

2nd year (current) - mutes, 180s, 360s, most rails (kinks, longs), boxes, truck driver, 270's off rails. working on 5's and switch.
 
safteys > sketchy hucked 3's off a tiny jump (fucked my thumb up too, haven't tried a 3 since) > flat box > 1's on flat/off rollers > flat rail

This is my first year doing park stuff, and I really didn't start (park) until late January. And when I ski park it's usually alone or with people worse than me, so I have some trouble pushing myself.

 
I learned to ski when I was 2 years old, when I was about 3.5 I picked up the poles and was ready for the big dogs. I then takled the summit at bachelor at the ripe age of 4. Later, as my ability grew I started trying 360s off small windlips. Suffering the beatings that I did, and losing the blood that I did I finally brought it into the park(when skiparks started getting parks). I was about 12, and had spread eagles down in the park, but I felt like I could do more. One day I demod a pair of rossi pow-airs. 360s came just like that. Now I had been racing for about a season now, and felt like I was a pretty confident skier. As my technique grew, so did my balls, and they eventually dropped. Now that I had balls to smack on rails, I started to do them. It was about now that I learned to land backwards. 540s were tackled. A few years passed, 7s and 9s were learned, my rail technicality increased and my backcountry skills rocketed. it was about this time that I graduated highschool, went to college and now I ski every few weeks. Anyways, the weed is better in college.
 
Just started in the park a couple of weeks ago, and since I live in belgium I don't have much of a park, except one with with 3 kickers and 6 rails that's located in a huge refridgerator in holland. Started out in Val Tho doing some jumps, but I sucked untill some young kids gave me some advice like keeping hucked in the air, popping of harder,... then started doing a grab under my feet (is that a safety?), now trying to make tailgrabs but my style doesn't look like much, this saturday I've got someone how will coach me a bit so I'm going to work on 360 and i seriously want to start hitting/landing switch.

Haven't been doing to much on a box though, just jumping on it and slide down but that get's kind of boring... what would be the next thing to do?
 
Shitty box>kinked flatbar>shotgun rail>rainbow rail>Unatural>switch on>flat-down-flat>switch on, 270 out>switch on unatural, 270 out>ninjaflip>switchups
