If these tricks are not easy enough for you maybe our seriously in-depth online course for beginner freestyle skiers could help to get you started. stompittutorials.com/beginner/
Hi. Please answer the questions: 1. How tall are you? 2. How tall is the ski? 3. What's your weight? 4. What is the trigger force (opening mounts) on skis (front / back)? Thanks!!!
matthew lemke well the manual 180 is just manual and you jump to 180, a butter 180 is you keep the tails on the snow and like “butter” the snow with your skis
Your first trick was I believed called a “Javelin” and I learned that by watching Wayne Wong and that was around 1974 when I was in high school. Those were the days if you jumped off any little hill on the mountain the ski patrol would pull your lift ticket for the day. I have been skiing since 1972 and I still enjoy the sport even though I ski a lot less now. I Love the newer ski technology. I can’t believe I used to ski on 205 in length skis.
No way thats rad you saw it and enjoyed it :) I saw it on skicreative and thougt thats dope I gotta throw it in with the hipslide :) Sorry I could not do it as well as you though.
Yesterday I tried to go off a ramp and grind on a tube/rail thing. When I landed on it my feet went out from under me and I rode the rail all the way to the end on my hip. I have a massive bruise. Never grinding again lol
The grind idea was awesome! I didnt think to use the edges of the piste! I only started to grind moguls last year by leaning back and kicking out my skis as I went over them. Will apply this for next year! I don't get the nose grab though because it just looks looks uncomfortable and awkward and doesn't look very cool.
I'm going skiing tomorrow with my school, and it's the first time I'll really try freestyle skiing and just love your videos about easy beginner ski tricks!
Hey love the vids! You touched on how to handplant in one of your other 5 easy trick videos but would love a little more detail! Keep up the vids I'm a massive fan!
Great video once again! Just bought myself a pair of Bent Chetler 100s, but I'm not sure yet on where to mount the bindings. Was thinking of going -4 from center (+4 from traditional) like you. In what case would you recommend going even closer to center? I'm looking to ski park, piste and off-piste about equally much.
I was wondering.. While jumping switch, do you still have forward shinpressure in your boots? I always land off balance jumping backwards and I cannot seem to fix it :/ Any help would be appreciated!
@@x3Cay Honestly I don't think it is. Jumping straight you (ofc) put weight on the front of the boot. Jumping switch on the other hand am I supposed to still lean forward, or back/neutral. Feels like I've tried it all but nothing feels right :/
As always sweet new tricks to try out soon! Do you guys happen to have a stretching routine you do which could be useful for freestyle skiing? Thanks again!
Lovin these videos so much thanks, How much shorter should free ride skis be compared to your usual carving piste skis. For instance I use 177cm carvers but found the love of the snow park last season and thinking of buying some twin tips for fun. Thanks
I really love your videos and i really appreciate your hard work teaching people to ski. I have a question: Do you guys also have ski camps for teens (i am 13 years old)? Ski for life🎿🎿🎿⛷️⛷️⛷️❤️ #ski #cool
Im going skiing in March. Third time skiing. Las time a copuple month ago i started doibg some jum and going backwards a bit. I would like to ractice to slide some box and maybe to a 180 at the end of the week. Anywsy I keep most of the time on slopes. Do you find to be considered to rent some skiis with some "freestyle" specifications? Or to begin sliding some boxes and doing some jumps is enough with a slopes skiboards?
Someone below said that they're struggling with rails (understandable), but i'm struggling with "why" for a lot of this. Assuming that i'm clueless (usually a good start point), are most of these skills key underpinning elements of more elaborate and refined tricks (a la learn your arpeggios if you really want to knock out stuff on a keyboard)?
Is it possible to do tricks with any ski? Yours seem to be very light and soft, what model is it? Can I do all of these with candide faction 2.0 or should I get something lighter?
Hey I want to start skiing freestyle and do/learn some butters and rail but I don’t know which skis to buy Can you help me and give me some advice ? (I’m an adult)
I really want to do the competition but I always have to hire skis, and they are always very very stiff, so doing any of these tricks are just a real challenge.
