Well,, this is hard to say, I am 13 years old and I Ski basically all over but mostly all of my skiing is focussed on the park. It's my passion. I can do a switch 180,360, and I'm working on a 5. Also I can do a 180,360, and a 540. I can do every rail that my friends point out to me, and I land them. Last year I noticed that I couldn't do anything in the park. I sucked. But I went up pre-season and hit some rails that were up and I was sticking them perfectly. I think that it's all about how well you work at getting your balance straight and get it to follow what you want. I think you also have to visualize your self there, a lot of pro athletes do that. As well as me. I have entered some tournaments and got in either 1st or 2nd. I plan on going pro. I train on a trampoline almost everyday and go up to my mountain every week. I am also trying to get to go to Windells for some help there. I am also going to enter into the Salomon Jib academy for my home mountain this year. Don't let your hopes leave you, if your goals look far away and unreachable, don't let them put you down, work hard and have fun. -Jake Salvador

Ya dood just work on sliding nice straight rails first. If you can slide a 15 box with ease then you should have no problem sliding a 15 foot rail. But, make sure that you have the right balance before you start to try these types of rails. After you've done this you're ready to slide the kinks and rainbows!

It doesn't really sound like your good enough to become a pro right now, but keep practicing and if you get better by the time your 16 or 18, then you can worry about becoming a pro. Also, enter in any tournaments that you can around your mountain.
