This so much! I finally learned to slide a tube last week. That black tube in the small park and really thanks to Stomp It and the amazing coaches. I can so emphasize with the frustration and pain coming from falling and the huge satisfaction when you finally manage to slide the whole thing.

[@sendingitfromthecity]

Awesome, Philipp!

[@StompItTutorials]

Well done!

[@anthonyalpha4118]

I respect your persistence well done!

[@sendingitfromthecity]

Thanks!!!

[@anthonyalpha4118]

Of course! Doing flips impressive I've got to catch up! 20 of 23 on 180 attempts today VERY happy! I love it when I see people on the lift who watched after completing 1. Couldn't get 270 today but I do feel like I'm on my way. Heal up season's running out!@@sendingitfromthecity

Were you taught to point/place your lead arm out ahead to help with turning or was that your natural way ? I struggle with getting my body turned to the 90* Ive gone to a different camp and had the same experience where I finally made it to the end of a tube the last hour of the week. what baffles me is I haven't been able to recreate that since.

[@sendingitfromthecity]

Hey! I don't recall explicitely being taught to do that with my lead arm, I think it just came naturally while trying keep my balance while on the feature. I was taught to put the fist of my lead arm down by my knee in the beginning, and that really helped me stop slippping out. Committing to 90 degrees was a separate issue for me, and had more to do with my fear of really committing to the slide than anything else. I overcame that by making myself commit to 90 on easy features, like the boxes, where I wasnt as scared of the feature. Then once I felt confident in the movement I would take it to something a little more intimidating, like the tubes. I hope this helps! And just keep practicing, I'm sure you'll get back to what you achieved at camp!

[@anthonyalpha4118]

I'm wearing hip & elbow pads this season and rails STILL scare me! I was doing ok on the boxes, then my home resort replaced them all w/kinked rails. I really don't want a nasty hip bruise like yours! I don't see the big wide tubes in CA like you all in Europe :(

I genuinely fail to understand why anyone would go to the snow to run their board or skis across a piece of steel from the concrete and steel urban environment they escaped from to go skiing.

@supremepaddy6658 aint no one skiing at the urban skate park. Get out there.

[@dw6503]

I guess you don't get it at all! Tell me any sport and I'll tell you the extremes/free style of it.

[@ZackDever]

Because it’s super fun, and I ski to have fun!
