I know it's been stated already in several different ways, but remember:
YOU'RE NOT THE SHIT. Chances are there's someone better than you on that mountain. Get over yourself, you're really NOT that good. Just a friendly reminder to deflate that ego.

^agree^ wholeheartedly
1) you don't own the park. you share. 2) clear the landing. unless badly injured, it is YOUR duty to get your ass outta the way. remember to shout "clear" so the next person can get a tasta of that double kink knowing there's big clear patch of snow at the end. 3) if someone says "drop in" and raises their hand, that rail/jump belongs to said person and you are not to be a doosh by cutting in front of them. 4) safety first. 5) have fun. your soul is no less valuable if you don't stomp that double cork. nor is it more valuable if you do. the important thing is to smile and enjoy yourself, that's what this crazy sport is all about son. |

I once rolled halfway down the landing of a jump. Hip was killing me like crazy. Managed to get to the edge, looked up and realized the people on the drop couldn't be seen. I swear that guy hated me, but it really hurt, I managed to get to the end of the hill with lots of falling over. I got out of there way, but they couldn't see me. Which is something you also have to look out for.
My friend who was on the drop in as well bashed me about it for ages. Not being able to stand up doesn't seem to be a valid answer.

I remember, when I just started snowboarding, on the beginner mountain there was a little kicker, and I, of course, landed on my back. Then I went to the side of the hill, and a little girl, about 5 years old, stopped and asked if I'm ok, that was so sweet
