I have been watching jons kangaroo flip and have come to the conclusion he is a god. But I was wondering what exactly is he doing? like a doulbe misty?

Also is any one else doing them yet? and do you think he will do the same trick this year but flip the opposite direction?

I think it was like a double flat spin:
flat 5 + flat 3

I've heard double flatspin, and I've also heard double rodeo. Either way it is amazing

flatspin 9, rodeo involves lateral rotation between your shoulders...flatspin is a sideways backflip

it looks to me like a double lincoln to 180, which would be like a double rodeo 540 or something, but thats why its called the kangaroo flip, no one really knows what it is except jon.

From someone who does them : "Like a double back 180 thrown to the side".

you guys should see what went down on the water ramps in Park City this summer... some of the most rediculous things i have ever seen. there are like 3 or 4 kids under the age of 16 doing different types of double flips... Alex Schlopy did double cork 7, as in cork 7 to another cork 7. it was HUGE!
