What are some tricks that pro's need to do? Im talking about certain spins, grabs combo's that you think would be sick, but just have never been done to your knowledge. Here's my list:

-Switch Lincoln

-Switch Front (Shane McConkey has done them, but seriously, 15 feet of air, needs to be done bigger)

-Double Corks

-Double Rodeo's

-Double Misties

-Switch Bio's

-Switch Back into powder

-Switch Rodeo to rail

-Rail to backflip to rail

-Switch cork 3's

-Backflip, 180, Frontflip

-Tailpress on a rail with a tailgrab (Same for nose)

-Lincoln Tail's

-Pole pass under the skis

Zero Chads

180 Chads

Something like Romain de Marchi (I think it was him)

He did huuuuuuuuge 180s and 360s over a huuuuuuuuuuuge man made table. Like ridonkolously bigg.

No, wrong, nobody has ever landed it. I will not let this thread drop into another endless argument of people about landing switch on chads!! FACTS:

-Chads has been hit switch (See TBC, WAR, etc)

-Chads has been 180'd by Pollard (ate it into the landing tho, didnt land)

-Rumors are that some austrailian did a cork 5, but i have never seen difinitive video evidence

-PYRAMID gap has been landed switch, see Andy Mahre in TBC and WAR.

yeah, and what about a 900, take a ski off, spin in like a hand on a clock 6 times, put it back on, do a back flip and land it. that still needs to be done too, and im ready, i trained all summer for it, im destined my freinds, DESTINED!

pretty much all those have been done...

switch front- Marc Andre, tremblant big air

double rodeos, misty, etc...- wilsons thing, arealist, personally I think this is the wrong way for skiing to go unless some how you add some style to a double rodeo

switch rodeo to rail- laurent farve, switch rodeo 620 at candie rail comp

switch bios- sammy carlson and others

switch back pow- seen it, forget where

switch cork 3- abma, some good am's to

pole pass- bibby and EVERYBODY

most of the other stuff is stunts, that might be landed very rarely, not consistently. The pipe is where a ton of new stuff will go down. We still have a long way to go in the pipe.

Have a rail that goes slightly up, backflip off the end and then land on a down rail.

i agree with the switch cork 3 that;d probably be the most stylish trick you could do switch bios have been done but defiently zero chads and 180 it and then like switch backcountry lines like a full line

I thought switch lincolns weren't done either until this awesome dude named Brandon Tracy at my mountain here in PA did one. Sick shit. Not that big though, needs to be done on like a 50ft. jump.

Heres a thought, and it might turn into one of NS's most popular thread topics. Why not slide rails 45 or even less and try and hold it the whole way. I don't know if anyone else does or tries this, but I'm going to go ahead and claim it. Also, like the one guy said, whats with no switch onto urban? Don't make me claim something else.

switch on urban depends on location. I've see it done at a local park where the inrun was huge, but some staircases are really cramped.

you have to admit. there gets to be a point in double mistys and those things, that you would just get confused, not no whats going on, and it would just look way to hucked

maybe that guy you quoted is an engineer that calculated the perfect amount of degrees laurent favre spined before landing on the rail. it's not impossible, it is just at least the same difficulty. but i confess that the usual thing is to say 630.


and for the back-flip 180 front-flip, some guy does it in ski movie 2. sw back-flip 180 front-flip tho

the switch cork 3 one is a joke right?
someone needs to land chads switch, double front/back flip a cliff, tail/nose press that's actually stylish, a tree/pole jib like 40 feet up.

- Switch blindside (= non alleyoop) tailpress on an urban rail.
- linking switch seamlessly into a big-mountain line... example - ski a face, 180 off a cliff, ski switch a bit, switch 5 off another cliff.

^that is just correct, and i would like to see more inverts in the future. and more spins in the inverts. something like a rodeo 1080 with just one flip.

switch 3 would be tite.

switch lincoln has done, i saw some nice shots of a switch front, dunno on the nosepress nose grabs.
