Which trick(s) are you most afraid of?

This is why dumont won x games big air with a dun front vs Jon’s switch dub 10 during the one winter they experimented with public polling to determine the winner

i get it conceptually but that is fuckin CRAZY to me dude

the worse part is a lot of normal people don't appreciate how much harder those spins are. i did a backy, then a sw misty 10 off a bridge last summer and my friends all agreed the backy was more impressive lol

Oh man where do i start…

1. for me is also sw tails, learned them before i learned sw lip, did them for a season and never got comfortable with them again.

2. Frontflips, doesn’t make me feel good, rarely looks any good.

3. backslides, can pull them off going fast af and barely having weight on the rail. Would rather fast slide tbh

backflips, I honestly don't see the reward relative to the risk knowing my tendency of not committing. will prolly flatspin at sum point tho.

that's the paradox of backies, they can be so scary then once you have them they're literally easier than any other trick (and the people love em!)

the mental odyssey of wanting to try one is such a classic skier thing. but so is blasting one for a crowd and hyping everyone up

It's kinda lame. A fat backie gets the people more stoked than a 7 or something.

Big floaty backflips are timeless. Especially to people who don't know how to identify any other tricks

Yeah my dad is just like that. I showed him part of an edit and he was confused at every trick but then he was like “oh yeah that’s a backflip”
