Question about Mike Wilson move in TBC

Could someone tell me what the name of the trick is that Mike Wilson throws early in his segment in TBC. He does it over the half pipe gap jump and it's like two front flips, but it starts it off with like a misty huck, where he throws his right shoulder down. Hope that is enough to identify it, thanks -

I actually haven't seen the movie, but it's probably a wilson flip, which is something like a double rodeo.

holy ignorance. only one kid has it so far. it's a cork 7 to cork 3...aka double cork 10. not a wilson flip...which is two underflips.

yeah... my thoughts exactly. Guys, just because someone does some sorta double flip.rotation, doesn't mean it's a wilson flip. this one is clearly a double cork 10.

its deffinetly not a cork 10 he deffinetly only does like a 720 at most and its not a double cork he goes inverted for sure and from my perspective it looks like a backflip 360 to like corked backflip PS its in the hitlist too

go watch it again. it's a cork 720, then like a flatspinnish/cork 3. and his feet go above his head twice.

I was under the impression that that was the trick that he did at the US Open years ago, and he said he figured it out playing a video game, and he decided that it was some type of double underflip... That was immediatly dubbed the Wilson Flip. Thats pretty much was what it looked like in Teddy Bear. A Double Underflip.... Double Cork 10?? I dont know, he looks more upside-down ish... Whateves, Its not really my jam anyway, even though I wrote many words on it just now..

No matter what, if you watch his rotation he comes around 1080 degress. I don't understand how a double underflip could possibly do this.

I think it's a double corked 10. someone should email him or something.

i know the trick name doesn't matter, because at the end of the day... it's still the same trick.. and it's still badass.... but this thread sorta makes me wonder, how so many people don't know what certain tricks are. How can that not be a cork 7, to cork/flat 3? it might not look like 1080, but it is.

if you guys want to compare... his trick over the pipe is a double cork 10. Now go to the crash seg, and look for the shot of him doing a double invert to over rotated death in the BC. THAT is the wilson flip.
