[SNOWMAN]

SO WHAT IS YOUR ABILITY LEVEL?
180= 1 point
tailstand=2 points
fountain=3 points
hood tricks, cowboy, riding backwards,bulldog, ect=3 points
nosestab=4 points
submarine=4 points
off the tray air tricks, around the world, monkey, etc.=4 points
big air, 8-10"+=4 points
barrel roll=5 points
backflip=5 points
1 more point for arsenal of tricks...like helicopters, tweaked subs or stabs.

36 points is what i would consider a well rounder pro rider
what ability level are you and what are you working on?

 

[SJBrit]

27. Working on flatwater backflips.

 

[SNOWMAN]

i guess im working on everything. nosestabs next.

 

[stanton]

[SJBrit]

28 but what about no hand rolls and other combos?

They're just for posers - no extra points! :smokin:

 

[SNOWMAN]

minus 50 points for bragging.
lulz.

some good riders up in hurr

 

[SJBrit]

Yeah, but you kind of have to rate the level in each trick too. If you compared my barrel roll to someone like Stanton you'd give me about 1 out of 10 and him 10.

 

[the WaTeRhAwK]

big air, 8-10"+=4 points

must be a lot of killer freestyling couhcers out there...lol

I might say about 9, I can do fountains very well, or could at one time. Tailstands are no problem with a nose exhaust, do a tail stand and let the tide pull you under the bridge or no wake zone. I can do submarines almost to the bottom of Packery channel, again at one time I could. I can do suicide subs too, they are pretty scary. I never thought to keep trying 180's, cause I kept hurting my hand on the throttle doing a sideways pancake. Now I'm building a new ski that has more power than my 650 and will try some different stuff.

17. been riding stand ups for about 3 months total riding time. learned 180s and fountains with my old sxi pro. got a sn superjet and got pretty good with tailstands. first ride with my footholds i learned subs. rode once in the surf and learned nose stabs and big air. i smacked my face upside down on an attempted barrell roll once. i ride a mostly stock 701 so i doubt a backflip would happen yet. im working on getting a helmet.

 

[TnT]

Um, yeah i would have to rate myself a 6 right now.... guess i need more pratice

 

[jhall752]

24 with a little help from the surf

 

[Polish jet pilot]

around 17. Need more practice time and more power - its gonna happen this week. BR are tough... I envy the guys who are above 20 points

 

[SNOWMAN]

yeah anyone with a decent arsenal of tricks like above 15 is usually fun to watch...everyone has a different "style" and yeah that count for extra points as well...fliudity,transitions from trick to trick...overall control of the ski.....looks dope when you got it nailed.
whos next???

 

[orangefinger]

helicopter with sub should be rated at least 5 points by itself, I have not seen as many performed as backflips.

I would also like to rate non dramatic injury with 5 points :0)

 

[j0hnny]

im about a 9 and ive owned my stock 750 for 2 weeks thank god for cabin cruisers on the st clair river. have had a few setups that have scared me lol.

 

[jMike]

22, Ive made it around on some rolls but I wont count them till they are nice and clean. Well nothing Ive really done has been that precise. I ride more like a buckshot than a sniper rifle hahaha. I and kept dislodging my hood doing monkey jumps last summer on my SJ. Gotta be worth something to keep the ski from going down while holding the hood. (I got me some hood straps now)

(Carbon BOB is due to arrive this week so maybe a flip and some real rolls will push me up some more.)
