Agreed, as long as you are comfortable on your board you'll be fine, you'll not believe how quickly you progress. I can't rate Maverix highly enough.
You'll be rocking N-S-N in no time. |

N-S-N is a bit of a headf**K to come to terms with, it's probably best to work on it on a really mellow slope first before trying to pull it on any features.
I suggest going to Snow Academy at MK and getting one of the guys there to demonstrate it for you. |

That's how I first discovered that N-s-N is pretty much banned on most slopes. The park staff just point blank said no, they wouldn't teach it....they weren't even allowed to do it themselves!!! D.d.d.dangerous. |

But barryclava, how do we practice something we don't know/understand?  |

| I think Becky managed to combine the 'Not seriously needed' hand grab while hitting N-s-N move. She should be sponsored really by now!!!! |

Of course I know you are correct! But I turn my back for one minute and the next thing she has two new sponsors! i think it is completely outrageous, but no matter what I do she is not prepared to stop hitting those slopes. I am at my wits end with the girl. She's 11 years old and thinks she is a pro! Did you know, (in a whisper) she even has her own website www.beckymenday.co.uk
The cheek of it!!!!!!!!!!  |

Just smarten up my front 3s,
Start back 3s, although apparently it's not too bad if you know the theory...
I would like to try a tail bonk revert back 1... but happy to try anything bonk based as I haven't done a great deal. |
