What is a rodeo and a misty on Skis?

Answer 1

Misty: When you come off the kicker and roll forwards over your shoulder while doing a spin, getting inverted, but not completely upside down.

Rodeo: The opposite of the Misty, a backwards roll over your shoulder as you rotate off the kicker.

These rotations can be anything from 540 and upwards (the 'flip' rotation counts for 360 already), eg Misty 540, Rodeo 720 etc.

To learn: Start on the tramp or at the pool. Simply start corking your tricks by throwing one shoulder back more than the other as you spin. It helps to look the way you want to spin too: eg have your head follow the direction you're putting your shoulder.

Eventually increase the cork until it becomes a rodeo/ misty (kind of a blurry distinction between the two). Then, take it to the skifield. Or, just go for it on the snow.
