rodeo = corked backflip
corked = off axis spin with your feet foward (at the start of the spin)
dspin = a spin where your body is parrell to the ground. like a barrel roll in flying. (you have to do a backflip motion to get out of it)
a cork means you drop your shoulder back when you set your spin....this is done easily by carving the lip.
a d-spin is a cork in which you go so corked you go upside down.....just watch a video section of Mike DOuglas and he will do like 8 (D-spin, DOUGLAS- spin)
a rodeo i cant explain, but its sorta like throwing your shoulders sideways...cant do better than that
oh and another confused one is a flatspin. It looksbest done in the pipe. Its were you do a backflip but on your side, so you do not really go inverted. Ill steal some other kids vids as examples
rodeo is lincoln 180 (rightside lincoln to left side 180 or leftside lincoln to right side 180) its not a backflip 540, or a backflip with a spin etc etc
Alright i have a trick i learned trying to throw corks. (i was later told that i was miserably wrong and it wasnt a cork) I set it by going up and slinging myself with my right arm to my left boot. I think im doing a frontflip and a 540 when this happens but im not positive. I gotta get it on film, but does anyone know what this could be?
SO assuming that you spin everything to the left.... this is all going to go counter clock wise
Straight foward is a front
down/fowards and to the left: misty
over the should and left: unnatty licoln
under the shoulder and down and to the left: cork
over the shoulder and to the left: d-spin
back: backflip
down under teh shoulder to the right: flat spin
over the shoulder and to the right: rodeo
spinning to the left while dropping your right shoulder and bringing your left one up: BIO!
Staright over to the right: lincoln
Fowards and to the right: unnatty misty
The difference between Bios and corks... corks the head can rotate in all different positions, while the body can be at different axis's, while not going over the head. If your feet go over your head its a d-spin. A bio is when your head leads the spin... ie, the head is facing downhill while the skis spin uphill.
The difference between corks and d-spins are that in a d-spin your feet end up coming over your head, while the spin is set over the shoulder.
The difference between a rodeo and corks/dspins is that its over the opposite shoulder. A rodeo is done over the other shoulder in this case it would be the right
Some of that is right, some wrong, some very right, some very wrong...
Other than the lincon description, most of the rodeos seam right, same with misties...
Cork is when you are spinning on your natural axis, but that isn't verticle, it's somewhere between 0 and 90 degrees if zero is straight up and down.
D-spin is when that goes past 90 degrees.
Now, if you are only like 1-40 degrees off axis, you're looking not so great in that cork.. more like you screwed something up.
A flat spin, you are actually spinning on a different axis, instead of your axis going through the top of your head (this is if you are spinning like a pencil) and coming out your grundle, it's more like it's going through your waist right above your johnson and coming out your waist right above your crack....
a lincoln loop, or barrel roll as some like to call it, is a sort of a flat spin, while your natural axis is straight up and down (like an arial or cartwheel type motion), what most call flat spins are done while off axis.
The announcers at the olympics should have had access to this.. I don't think they knew the difference between the various jumps...or maybe its just me.
a flat spin is kinda looks like a dougnut... if you can imagine that... ahhhh goodness... a flat five almost looks like a lincoln loop 5 except you don't go inverted, and you skis come around instead of up and over your head
