Plan 8

This off-season is going to look a little different. I'm trying a completely different strategy. Putting my season on the line for 8 tricks. With the goal of bringing each of these tricks to the 2026 competitions. They are all completely new. Some are close to being ready, some are terrifying and some are going to take a lot of crashing. Let's see if we can pull it off.

So why Plan 8? I want to step things up next year. I want to land my dream Slopestyle run and this is a step towards making that happen. I've been working on this list and swapping tricks in and out for a while and the goal is to try and capture most of my riding style within these 8 tricks. The reason I’m only focusing on these 8 in particular is to give my training time some more focus and direction so that I’m not constantly getting distracted by different tricks and spreading my effort to thinly across too many moves. And so I'm guessing that you're dying to know what these tricks are. But I'm going to keep that to myself for now and do a big reveal when I land them in competition.

Despite this, I will still be keeping everyone updated on how the plan is going with a live tracker of each trick and giving it a traffic light rating depending on how it is going. Green being ready for competition, red being not even landed to airbag yet and yellow being somewhere in between. I'll keep everyone updated each week on the wins, the breakthroughs and the fails on my social media.

I'm expecting this to push me to my limits. The next few months I will be fighting with these tricks in every session. Some days are going to be huge wins, and some days it might feel like I'm going backwards. But this is the reality of learning tricks and trying to create a slopestyle run that I would be proud to land. My mission with this plan is to document as much of the behind the scenes of slopestyle specific training as I can and bring some more value to my audience.
