improve speed
proper stance
jumps
ski backwards
Become knowledgable and start exploring the back country.
Complete a 1 week trip with two of my buddies going to Manning Park, Big White, Silver Star, Sun Peaks, and finally Whistler and Blackcomb.
If time and $$ permit, go to Alaska or Utah for a trip.

get fired or laid off from work after Christmas and then just snow slide the whole spring away
also get into the backcountry stuff finally, less lift-riding hopefully
and do more xc skiing than past couple years ... best workout ever and lots of hotties up there

My goal is to just ski whenever I can. After work, weekends, dawn patrol, on sick days, or in my sleep as long as I'm cranking turns I'll be happy.
1. Ski Golden and perhaps Revelstoke.
2. Be in better condition before the season starts than I was last year.
3. Get more air, off cliffs, not in the park.
4. Take more sick days.
5. Get into the Whislter Backcountry more.
6. Do at least one Dawn patrol.

Learn switch backside 540's so i can do them all four ways. I don't think i'll be able to do switch 7's this year, but i would like to learn all of my grabs switch
my ultimate goal is just to have people not able to tell whether i'm riding switch or not
I also want to do lots of slashes and handplants

50 days
Get to a couple of new peaks
Get more park days in
Get shirk to realize that a few runs through the park on any given ski day is not a bad thing.
And, like everyone, learn more tricks, get more dialed on my current tricks, and get more style in the air.
Oh yeah, biggest one - hang up the skis at the end of the season and look back on an injury-free ski year!
