    The reason I started park skiing was because the community is so nice and is willing to help you with anything.

    Perfectly said! I would also like to emphasize that going into the park does not mean you have to be ready to get air, and it can be good training for building non-park skills too! The big jumps especially on a less sloped park are a progressing skiers best friend when it comes to getting comfortable on steeper slopes and learning how to keep momentum. Staying to the left or right of a jump and going over the "roller" gets you access to a very steep but also very short slope. Nowhere else on the mountain can you get accustomed to the feeling of pointing straight down a steep without having to worry about speed control, because you'll soon be back on a slope you can handle and manage your speed then.
    Another great feature if you can find it are the little rollers, almost like a wave of hills just a foot or two high. It gives you a place to practice the feeling of being on ungroomed terrain; how to work with your momentum instead of against it when it comes to weighting and unweighting skis - or more simply, when and where to make turns as you go over terrain variations. Its also a way to practice the feeling of skiing moguls without needing the technical skills required to make it to the bottom of a mogul field without getting yeeted.
    But my very first experience in the park was specifically to not hit anything. Back when I was a very green beginner, I didn't really trust that I was actually controlling where I went. I thought I'd be unable to avoid hitting features. But taking a lap through the park without hitting anything, I began to realize just how much more accurate and in control I really was.

    Just moved from the UK to Vancouver in August after having watched you do seasons for the last few years. So excited that I finally get to have my very own local hill and start progressing in my park skiing (rather than just in the Alps one holiday per year). Definitely copping some stickers!

    snowboarder here, love the park and rails are my favorite however the fear of catching my edge on the rail and acquiring a new fond taste of iron stops me from trying new stuff

    Can't wait for the season either and I love your enthusiasm. At 51 I still enjoy the terrain park, but there are certain things I never do. Rails mainly. Boxes are fine and I love jumps. Your advice to stay within yourself and progress gradually is perfect.
    Thx for all the work man. Have a safe and incredible winter!

    My dude! I just got back into the park after two years off (I had heart valve surgery). I was surprised with how quickly so many of my old tricks came right back. Within a few runs, I was spinning 3's and 5's off a small jump, and I'm *old* by this sport's standards (41).

    1:17 as park staff, I can most definitely tell you the park is NOT for people who cant at least link turns on blue runs. It’s often the only place on the hill where you should at least be at an intermediate level. This is for safety reasons. That’s not to say you shouldn’t scope out the park before riding it. I encourage that no matter what level you’re at. I like this video👍

    The thing that scares me is when big jumps are in a area high up on the mountain with not as many trees, so you cant see over the jump and it looks like you would just fly oof the mountain. Idk why, but im not scared of anything else, even big jumps elsewhere.

    @durwoodwhitman8808 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The problem I have is that I am 37 years old and any fall can be the end of the whole season for me. One year a girl skied in front of me and a avoided her but dropped into a black diamon at a fast speed, and had to carve left to avoid a small child and ended up skiing up a 6 foot berm on the side into the woods. Ended up hurting my shoulder and was out for the rest of the season. Also I live in central NY Syracuse and there are no terrain parks near me that have progression. They have rails 3 feet off the ground no boxes and the one jump they might have is not a good kicker more like you need at least 20mph speed to clear it and if you crash at that speed being a beginner season over. I even travel to the biggest mountain we have in NY Gore Mountain and they do not have any progression jumps. Its either medium going 10 feet in the air or nothing.

    One reason to be intimidated by the terrain park; your local hill doesn’t properly appreciate it, develop it, build it or hire the right people to run it. My local has this asinine belief that a flat takeoff and a steep landing will lead to less injuries when it’s 100% the opposite. The takeoff trajectory needs to match the landing, we are all regulated by the same laws of physics.

    To those few people out there, PLEASE DO NOT GO AS FAST AS YOU CAN YOUR FIRST TIME SKIING/SNOWBOARDING. I have had so many incidents where I or someone gets hurt because of reckless skiers. And by that I mean BEGINNER skiers. If you are advanced and can make sure you’re not crashing into anyone while going 50 mph then so be it. But if it’s your first time snowboarding/skiing, DO NOT ZOOM DOWN THE MOUNTAIN AND HIT OTHER PEOPLE. I got hit yesterday on a GREEN route by a reckless snowboarder that crashed into me (who is learning snowboarding after having skied for many years) at such a stupid speed that he rolled a few times and I fell and rolled. You are risking both YOURSELF AND OTHERS.

      @TheBagOTricks  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@Stawexa I think first off just accepting that you might not land new tricks first try, or even after 50 tries, is really important! Every new trick you take on is going to be a battle, no matter how easy or hard you think it is. That's why park is such a mental challenge. Pushing through the failure to finally land something new.

    • @npgaming28
      @npgaming28 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      there is no bigger failure than never trying. you will maximize progression by hitting as many features as you possibly can. park is highly dependent on reps and getting the feel for the correct mechanics, it will also be very helpful to have someone better than you to ride with and give pointers

    For a long time I was afraid to go to the park, because one time when I tried hitting a rail for the first time, I fell down. And when I looked up, I saw a group of instructors laughing their asses of at me. Man, I was so embarrassed. But then I thought to myself: why would I care? If they are so pathetic to laugh at a point they have been, just let them be bad persons. So this year, I will just try and try this year, no matter what others think :)
