Welcome to my second update for the 2018-19 season!! Since I\u2019ve last left you all, I\u2019ve gone to Mount Hood for a second on-snow camp, water ramped for 4 more weeks, celebrated my 18th birthday, and completed my first cork 10s on snow!!<\/p>\n
During water ramps at the beginning of July, I began working on a few new tricks to mix things up! One of these was a back mute \u2014 during which I ended up getting a few stitches in my leg due to a ski-slicing incident. This accident definitely made me queasy\u2026but thankfully it was very, very minor. Hungry to get back on water ramps and try more new jumps, I rested up and was able to return to training a few days later \u2014 and on my first day back, I tried my first cork 10, which is an off-axis flip with three rotations. I wasn\u2019t too sure as to what I should expect, but the trick went surprisingly well, so I ran with it! From that day forward, I spent the next few blocks of water ramping, before our second Mount Hood camp, honing in on all of my tricks, with a little bit of special attention focused on developing the cork 10. (Below is a current ramping video of the trick!)<\/a><\/p>\n
