i have no idea how to do these and dont even know what they are but they sound fun so if someone could explain how to do them that would be fantastico:

tip stands

butters

polish bagel

polish doughnut

wormroll

pumpkin roll

ninja turtle

 
tip stands - balance on your tips on the flat.

butters - (switch butters) - spin 180 while leaning back on your tails like manualing. Straight butters are just the opposite.

polish bagel - dont know

polish doughnut - dont know

wormroll - do a switch butter 180 but slide onto your stomach, rotate onto your back from your stomach position and you should be back on your feet

pumpkin roll - dont know

ninja turtle - dont know

not sure if that helped or not

 
polish doughnut is when you carve hard then slip out onto your hip and rotate a 3 on your hip and get up. like a flat 3 on the ground
 
Ninja Turtle I think is when you have a jacket/windbreaker that's slippery and you just curl up on you back.

Also I've been try to to cartwheels over rollers and knuckles of table tops. They're hard but I've managed a couple.
 
the only cool ones are the butters and tip-stands.

the rest just sound like you fall on the ground, flail around in nuerous ways, and then get back up and call it a "trick".
 
i have only heard of a butter, but anyways a butter is a 180 when you are presuring youre tips or tails on the ground and spinning a 1 on youre tips
 
actually butters and tip stands are much more like ski ballet than wormrolls and whatnot

wormrolls, doughnut rolls, ninja turtles are all 70s hot dogs moves. see wayne wong
 
they are 'tricks.' shit is actually really fun to do when skiing groomers plus it will help you learn to fall, as well as, recover from falls.
 
ninja turtle: kinda like a lincoln loop on the ground

wongbonger: ski bumps on your tails, periodically ollie over trenches from bump-to-bump. for added effect use the double pole plant. named after wayne wong's style in the bumps.

worm turns: ride your on tails while making turns. great for low angle pow.

pole flips(this is definetly ski ballet): plant poles ahead of you and use them to do a front flip.

what is it called when you hold your ski tips while skiing down a run (either backward or forward)?
 
i made up one called a gapper slide

you basicaly find a hill then just slide down the whole thing on your side its pretty fun
 
whats it called when you jump up and ride on your tip of one ski and the tail of the other with you're boots off the ground?
 
These things arnt really things you spend time trying to learn, its more stuff that you do when your sitting in the lift line being a jackass. if you have enough control over your skis you should be able to just start buttering and then pressing harder and harder as you get used to it.
 
head butters are breaking out 9balance on your tips switch while doing a double true nose and balancing with ur head dragging through the snow)
 
dude mine have none, it makes it easier.

if they had flex you'd snap them like my last four pairs of skis
 
im all about this new trick i made up but its in the park. Ita called a cannon ball. You slide a box and fall and slide it on your side. Then you pick up your knees with your hands and fall onto the ground yelling cannonball!!!!!!!!!
 
i tried a couple of those donghut thingys, they are really hard to like stay moving, i get the rotation, but im not moving forward any more. i plan of tried the worm thingy tomorrow, if i remeber how to do it,
 
go faster. everytime i tried i had a hard time rotating, but never slowed down.

also try doing it down a hillish/non flat part. how are you falling into it? what i did was kinda hockey stop but keep the edges flat and try to sink down quickly as i could, but i have no idea how your supposed to do it, help me out?
