love the pics, makes me miss the motherland.

Noice!

That "back with a 3" is a pretty solid D-spin 720. (Yeah, 720. Not 360. It's complicated.)

I like this thread. Jumping days filled with bad decisions are some of the finest.

A misty is a corked front flip. A rodeo or d-spin is a corked back flip. Basically, a d-spin is a SUPER fucked/corked rodeo

**flyby** · 03-28-2008, 11:30 AM

corked is more like a spin/lincoln loop cross and d-spin is a full-on backflip 3.

Your b-flip looked supah cleen

**Ireallyliketoski2** · 03-28-2008, 11:32 AM

I thought a d-spin was like a full corked backflip 720 while the lincoln loop was like a laid out front 360 twist.

French Canadians just suck at math is all.

I dig it

**Greydon Clark** · 03-28-2008, 12:34 PM

Is that booter out the gate form Chair Ten? If so, I used to hit that jump circa Y2k.

You off crutches yet and back into skiing mode??

**brannen** · 03-28-2008, 02:06 PM

nope, doc said 4 weeks. im thinking one, on groomers. maybe some skins in 2, well see.
dont want to screw myself for mtn bike and rafting season though.

as for the trick, i think d-spin 720 sounds cooler, so im claiming that......

**Spartacus087** · 03-31-2008, 01:39 PM

I think its out the gate by the top of mustang and head directly skiers right and for a bit then up the other side of the gully. If so a buddy and i built that like a month ago. Theres 2 kickers on that hill. Looks to me like you hit both of them? The top one was built by us.

**brannen** · 03-31-2008, 09:59 PM

yeah, there are 3 of them now
thanks to whoever left the shovels there too, SWEET

**grskier** · 03-31-2008, 10:07 PM

Nice work!

You should ask on NS... I know it's annoying, but a couple of the kids actually know what they are talking about.... a couple, not many, but a couple

**Sirshredalot** · 03-31-2008, 11:09 PM

I think you would call that trick a rodeo 540.

Rodeo = corked backflip where you complete a 180 and land backwards
So you snuck the extra 180 in there and completed a rodeo 5, since you were corked all the way through
If your backflip was on axis and you completed the 360 by rotating completely along the y-axis, then I think you would call it a back-full.
Misty = corked frontflip where you complete a 180 and land backwards

D-spin = 720 where you throw your head backwards as you start the second rotation to complete a backflip during the second spin.

At least that's my understanding of it.

Oh, and nice stoke!
