  1. for starters, buy a season pass to your nearest hill. Work on small tricks before even considering the bigger ones, and be comfortable pulling them with either of your feet leading.  


  2. Keep dreaming....

  3. how old are u if ur youg work hard

  4. Get a season pass to a local mountain

    Make videos of you showin your stuff

    Compete in competitions

    WIN!!


  5. skiing and snowboarding are one of those sports that if you don't learn early...and you don't excel early...its nearly impossible to go the olympics or x games.

    take me for example...i started skiing when i was 4 and was recruited by the u.s. ski team when i was 8. for 4 years, i competed. at that point, i had to decide, was i going to go out west every weekend (at my expense) for competitions and training. well it didn;t really matter what i decided because at that time, my twin brother, who was also the same level as me, was diagnosed with cancer...and i decided to stop skiing until he could...he survived but it took 3 years off our skiing. so when we got back onto the slopes at 15 1/2...we were told that we no longer had a chance of ever making it to any national or international competitions. for the 3 years that we stopped, other poeple our age were getting much better.

    so to answer your question...if you are 10 or younger, and already have lots of experience in snowboarding...you still have a chance...but you will have to make sacrifices...get your parents to send you to a snowboarding academy...which many mountains offer...basically you ski half the day and have lessons the other half...almost no social interactions with other kids our age.

    the reason you have to do this...or something similar is because one you need practice. and two, you need to be competing...the only way you can even try out for the x games is if you did well in other competitions before that...

    and if you are older than 10 and don't even have experience, sorry to burst your bubble, but your chance of ever making it to the x games is over...

    hope this helps
