Everyone progresses at different speeds. Wakeboarding and skateboarding experience sometimes makes a difference as well.

also, it can be pretty fast to land a trick once... But really 'landing' tricks means having them consistent (like 8/10 at the worse).

from experience, you can land a kickflip once and then spend weeks/months of riding without nailing one Embarassed

So sure in a few weeks you can manage to land many different tricks, but consitency is the beach Twisted Evil
