Expert Skier

An expert skier (in the making) from Winter Park doing jumps, rails, halfpipe and cliffs. Alex has only been skiing 4 years. He is one of those kids to keep your eye one, and one day -- you might see him in the X GAMES.

not an expert skier, but an expert park-skier. You actually have to turn and go down the slope to be an expert skier, it's a differnt skill set.

This is just his park skiing. He has competed in the US Extreme Freeskiing Championships in Crested Butte, and got a personal invite to the World Extreme Freeskiing Championships. Thanks for watching!

Wow nice i am still working to get there lol

[lacyfern]

Keep it up and you will get there! :) Best of luck to you and your tricks!

[dmaccoopman]

how do you do a 180 or 360. i cant seem to stick the landing. any help?

[lacyfern]

Start with a good take-off, get a good pop, try to push your hips up and forward, like an old school freestyler. Then commit to the spin, spin with your hips, shoulders and head. Be sure to try to spot your landing. Hope this helps.

expert failer

[karapekka]

How come anyone calls him an expert skier based on this video? No a single trick worth watching your time. Simple stuff such as 5's along with crappy graps and basic rails, etc... along with horrible music. "He is one of those kids to keep your eye one, and one day -- you might see him in the X GAMES."

I'm sorry, but don't think so
