Trampolines are good for getting tricks learned. WAter ramps are even better. AT least on the ramps you get the feeling of going off a jump, in stead of bounding up on a tramp. I'm not dissing on tramps, cause i want one, but water ramps are an easy way to gain experiance. If you want to try your cork-9 for the first time on icy groomed tabletops, be my guest, but before you do, e-mail me so i can send it in to the darwin awards.
WA skiers are cool. I'm a WA skier. I'm cool. You know, Washington apples are cool too. . .
