I know some tricks here is very basic and easy but I know it ain't easy for an beninger to just throw away an flair or cork 7 but here comes a trick tip we start of with an 360
A 360 is an important "basics" trick to be able to do, because it can be done in almost as hopeful as any time, plus it is incredibly comfortable to do great. This is the trick that makes you get started.

When you put a 360 loosen up blocker and you dare to do more and more advanced tricks. Test and put up an seafty grab , because it keeps up the body so you get better control, and that it is pretty simple.

1 When you try a 360, it is best to test in a soft, fairly small bigjump with flat kick. Take some runs till you are safe in the jump. In the beginning, it may be wise to make no grab, but concentrate on the actual spinning. Try like before without skis on the ground so you know which way that feels natural to spin about. Most spins to the left.

2 Run toward the jump and look at the kicker. Start spinning with your arms as soon as you leave the jump and look around your shoulder. Try to keep looking towards the horizon, look for the very top is the forward weight of the landing and look too much down to the tail lands you with backward weight.

3 Now it's just to keep the rotation by looking around the shoulder, and the search after landing with your eyes. Once you see the landing, you should determine whether you must pull up the legs to the body to get around or if you have a good time. Take the land stable and slip away.

4 If you are eager to put on a grab, you should first learn to put 360 perfect, so you do not need to think about spinning, and then do exactly the same, only difference is to take in a little more because Grab tend to slow down your spin. You should grab when you have left kicker and then release it late, the later you release the ski, the cooler is you gonna be :-)

Now we going to the flair it's also a basic trick in the pipe and when you make it looks very clean.

A flair is back, with 180 volts, but when you do it in the halfpipe so seeks to allocate spin across spin so you do not get around 180 n. When you try the first time, be sure to do it in a halfpipe you feel comfortable in, with a perfect hit, so you land in the buoy and not the bottom, and a soft landing. The first time, it is often best with a self-built quarter pipe with lössnö soft landing.

Learn first: Stable halfpipe Airplane with beautiful Grabs
Back Flip in the usual jump

1 Select a hit in the pipe that feels good, it should be moderately steep, and you should not need the press to not land flat. Run up a few times, o is the kick o the air. Try to find a sense of how much you must take in order to work around volts.

2 When you do that, we must not hesitate. Go up against hiten with the speed you feel safe with, but do not go too slow, was aggressive. Focus on your selection here.

3 Now you have a flair. Wait to drag around spin to you at the top of the buoy, the press too early, you will either land on top of the shelf or thump in the head in the wall, press from the late, you will not be around. When your ski tips just starting to get over the edge, leaning back as you get when you do a back flip, but watch your head towards the end of the halfpipe where your friends are and check.

4 Draw the knees to the body and take a grab, if you feel like it. Be cool and keep in volts. Do you right you will see the landing all the time, so there is no problem to locate them. When you are about to come down and you will be able to determine if you need to spin more, or if you will stop the rotation. The most common beginner's mistake is that people in rotating volte but over rotates spins, therefore you should be pretty quiet in the beginning when you rotate.

5 Land stable and slip away with a smile (or crash violently and refuse to trust me again)

Now we moving on to the cork 720
hen you are taught some basic spins to 360, 540 and 720, so you probably want to develop them, right? Since cork is a good thing to hand. A Cork 720 is actually a normal 720, but instead of turning completely straight, then leaning Monday it down a bit, so it is a little crooked in the air.

Make a cork 720 and "overcork", ie cork a little too much, so there will be a dspin 720. But now it is important to distinguish between the concepts. when you test the first time, so be sure to have a soft landing, because you are wrong and will probably not land completely straight all times.

1 Take you to a large between bigjump, or build yourself a jump. Hope should be sufficiently large in order for you to take you around a 720 without taking in everything you can. Run up with some common 720's, they needed you to.

2 As you approach uthoppet, as the rotation as a regular 720, except that you look a little more down around your shoulder, but not too much, you will not see your tail. After one lap, you should be ihopkrupen, with the skis pointing slightly upwards. Keep only in the rotation and look with your eyes around the shaft.

3 Now you should be able to see the landing, and assess how much you have left. Pull skis under you and focus on where to land. At this stage of the rotation, it is easy to detect that it is totally wrong and will land on the page. As has been swirling for a long time in the horizontal and not withdrawn in time. The first few times it is easy to trick most becomes a dspin, but then, just go up again and try out the cork.

Often think that it is difficult to draw a cork 720 than a dspin 720, since inverting more of a dspin and then you will see the landing before. Many people feel that it is jättesvårt not to cork too much, it comes to finding that perfect angle, so you either do or will dspin up straight. When you learn this snurrer, just put on the grab, and remember: do not give up!

I will post more trick tips later but it takes some time to write and sorry for my english cos it's not the best in the world, pm me if you have any questions I will be glad to help you out and please throw me a comment cos I wanna know what you thought of this so if I gonna post more tell me what tricks you wanna have I post them here, and please give me some Karma if you thought this was good, CHEERS
++K to me moahahh

bump top I won't do any more threads like this if you don't say anything about it and what trick you wanna know next or was this just a waste of my time?
 
Maybe someone will find it useful, but there are a lot of trick tips floating around. There's several cults devoted to it in fact. ASK TURPIN, and Trick Tip Cult. Post there.
 
On second thought...your english isn't the best, and it made that difficult to understand. I feel like you might be kidding...
 
Thank you!I can better english but then it's taking some time to write it all corectly, stop hate!'I was doing this thread and try to be nice and all you do is haite hate hate!
 
good info, just the grammar distracts you from the content, its not hate its feedback. Any word processor would catch these mistakes, they are easy to fix for next time.
 
Well I like what you were trying to do with it and all, but there are some points that I'd like to address:
- first, for a 3 you don't want to over think it too much but DON'T spin with your arms. That's a big no no, and it is a major misconception that people have when spinning. You spin with your core, your hips, shoulders etc. arms can help but they should not by any means be the center of the spin.
- look over your shoulder to spot the landing as quick as possible. I know its a weird feeling at first but once you get it it becomes second nature.
- it was all fine until I saw "flair" in the pipe. Now alright, it might be an easy trick but you just taught them a 360, now you're gonna teach them a flair? I would've thought more along the lines of a 540, or maybe even a backflip but a flair? Especially in the pipe where it is a whole new world of skiing and unless you're used to it many people can't get over the lip without practicing a bunch of times, let alone throw a spin in there.
you're doing a great job of trying to help NSers out here and +Karma for that but I think you kinda got ahead of yourself haha.
Oh and we're not hating, its just some constructive feedback and if you think about it the guys who are on NS right now are probably frustrated since they're not skiing so it might come off a bit jerk-ish but you gotta get used to it its all part of NS. Maybe try posting this in the Trick Tip Forum cult, I'm pretty sure its the biggest cult on NS and its updated regularly so you'll get more views there too.

 
Thanks for the feedback but I can't find the rick tip cult can you send an link andflair is not a har trick to learn in the pipe learned like it on the 3rd day in the pipe,you need to belive in yourself and about the 360 you got right my bad
 
Terrible grammar, and this could be in the ASK TURPIN cult. But otherwise, decent info. Props for trying. What is your native language?
 
Good try on attempting to make a quality thread but there are already several good ones like this. Also I can tell that english is probably not your native language so between that and the caps lock it was difficult to read and understand.
 
ha. I wrote one just like this, but more organized and detailed for beginners. But there are a few tricks that aren't on mine here, so this should help. I'll post up mine.

https://newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/335914/

There are more and more freeskiers every single day of this season, and many of them discover NS. What is the easiest way to figure out a trick tip? Well, on here as of now, it's the trick tip cult. However, I feel that a beginner's guide in the forums would be a great use of space, rather than debating whether tight pants suck or whether someone should use poles or no poles. So if you're new to here, welcome! If you're not...well check this out anyways! Feel free to add suggestions, I’m no expert.

There are two main rules in skiing:

(1) Have fun

(2) Don't forget rule #1

If you forget those two ideas, then you have lost the entire purpose of skiing altogether.

I’m assuming you know how to ski if you're on newschoolers. You don't need much real turning or carving form to ski park, however, it DOES help. I suggest you don't spend all your time in the park and have some fun outside of jumps, rails, and other manmade features. Just watch Idea, a film by Eric Iberg, if you want to see how cool and fun that can be. Butters and cliff drops galore.

Trick Tips

To start out, you should probably learn the basics: popping, spinning, and sliding rails.

Popping

This is the most essential skill in park skiing. Ultimately, when you approach the lip of a jump…jump! Use your quad muscles like you would to jump off the ground to do a slam dunk. Then bring your knees up a bit, and there you go. Steeeeezin.

Why: This skill helps you center yourself for spins, and also to balance yourself in the air. It also provides an element of safety, as it sets you up with the angle of the jump and the landing, rather than the jump throwing you wildly and you losing control, and possibly overshooting. A bit technical, but hey! Might as well throw in a bit.

Spinning

Every spin has the same basic technique, especially after the 360. The basic technique is: wind up accordingly to how big your spin is, pop, spin, spot the landing, and stomp it.

180: The 180 is the easiest spin to do on small jumps. It’s just a half rotation, landing backwards. You might want to have some twintips before doing this (although I’m guessing you have some already.

When you get to the lip:

(1) pop, (2) look behind you to spot your landing, and (3) turn your shoulders that same way. Your skis should follow your shoulders. Keep on looking backwards until you stomp that 180 and then depending on how comfy you are with switch skiing, you can either turn around to normal stance again or stay in the switch position.

360: This has generally the same principle as any spin, although it is probably the most widely done “first trick” that a park skier, or any freeskier, learns.

When you get to the lip: (1) pop and tuck, (2) Turn your shoulders with your head, and try to look all the way back around you. Your skis should follow. Finally, (3) when you see your landing coming, straighten out your legs again and touch down smooth.

For going past the 360, you need to set your spins a bit harder. That means turning your shoulders a bit harder, and turning your head to search for that extra 180 or 360 degrees of rotation past the initial 360, to make a 540, 720, or even a 900. There are variations on spins too, such as corks and bios, which are off-axis rotations, and misties, rodeos, flatspins, and d-spins, which are all inverted spins.

Rails

The technique of sliding rails is much simpler than spins, in almost every way. However, rails are metal, and spins are in the air. Therefore, your surface is slippery and you will need good balance to be good at it.

What to do:

(1) Pop off the lip to the rail like you did for jumping

(2) Turn 90 degrees sideways, either left foot or right foot forward depending on how you naturally are inclined.

(3) Keep even balance on both feet. For me, I try to keep a bit more pressure on the forward foot, because it keeps me from slipping backwards off the rail.

(4) When you come to the end, hop off and turn 90 degrees again to land either switch or normal.

It may sound difficult, but it’s really not, depending on the rail. There are many variations as to what you can do on the rail, such as varied degrees of spins on and off rails, and switch-ups, which is when you are sliding a rail and you jump mid-slide and turn 180, landing mid-slide again on the same rail.

Backcountry Tips

If you’re new to the backcountry, this is not always about fun. It’s sometimes about proving to yourself that you can do something, conquering a fear, or just going out there for bragging rights; skiing the gnarliest and the steepest lines.

There are basic guidelines you should know:

(1) ALWAYS, ALWAYS have a buddy (or two)

(2) Take a shove, probe, and transceiver. It’s worth it. Just read about all the people that die in avalanches and such.

(3) Look before you leap. Make sure you know where you’re going and don’t huck anything that you haven't scoped out.

Powder

This is by far the most fun aspect of skiing. Face shots, floating, whatever words that can maybe describe this heavenly experience of powder are not enough. But it is tough work to ski it, and even though you don’t have to know how to ski it, it’s here for you.

When you drop into a powder run, remember that falling doesn’t hurt. This means that you should play around as much as you can in the snow and try new things. It also means that it works your calf muscles…a lot.

(1) While skiing powder, you should keep a neutral stance, or even lean SLIGHTLY back. Too far back and it’s just bad form, especially when you want to hit a cliff, which I will talk about next.

(2) Use your ankles to push the nose of your skis upwards. You don’t want your tips to dive, because digging your skis out of powder is not fun.

(3) Try to keep your hands up and forward, and like skiing normally, use them to help you turn.

(4) Always face down the fall line (unless skiing switch).

Those are some basic tips, you can probably figure out yourself how to have a fun time in powder though. Stay chill!

Cliffs

Hucking cliffs is gnarly. And I mean, uber gnarly fun stuff. Not for n00bs at all.

Tips for hitting cliff (with help from Holte):

(1) Have your hands forward

(2) Be balanced

(3) Spot your landing when you are taking off, so that you can follow yourself all the way down.

(4) Don’t go slowly off of the lip. You may hit rocks or a hole at the bottom of the cliff if you do.

(5) Land as far forward as you can without risking tip dive into the snow. That can hurt. However, landing in the backseat (leaning back) can destroy your calf and knee muscles. In addition, you’ll be out of control the first few turns afterwards if you don’t injure yourself.

And that’s all I have for now, guys! Feel free to add in any tips you may have for BEGINNERS ONLY!

Hope you all enjoyed.
