slipping clutch
so i barely noticed that my clutch is slipping pretty bad... not while just riding around but only when i try to stunt. im in the stand up position n slip the clutch but the bike just shoots out infront of me, like the clutch just kicks in whenever it feels like.. does this mean i need to get a new clutch? or would a simple adjustment help? or a oil change?

Since you ask about the oil:
How long has it been since you last changed it?
Inspecting the clutch cable - and adjusting if needed - is an easy job, and should
be done on a regular basis, regardless of whether the clutch is slipping or not.
The same goes for the oil.
I know it might not be the answer you're loking for, but my suggestion is that you perform these two maintenance tasks.
Its good for the bike. Its good for you as you learn to know your bike better. (And it rules out these two options as the culprit.)
