Tanner Hall's New Double Flip

So I was at the massive site looking through the pictures section and I noticed a sequence shot of Tanner's new double. After a few minutes of looking at it I still can't figure out exactly what it is. Every time we see a double in the pipe it's a "double flatspin" which is more like a double back 180, but this one is different. I was wondering if anyone (possibly Tanner himself) could pick out which two flips it really is. Also, maybe give it a name (unless of course Tanner has already done so...and if so, maybe tell us). Heres the picture:

I thought a whiskey was a double flatspin. What tanners doing is defenitely a backflip to lincoln loop to 180.

Snap,  I made my comments without seeing the vid,  i was going from what I could see on the sequence photo : /

It's definitely backflip to flair...  Flytraps are Back180/flair to front...

in the first clip in the vid it kinda looks like he goes right handed safety on the first flip to left handed safety on the second, although its probably just the sketchy vid quality

i still cant figure it out, but it might be a super flat 3 to a lincoln. that rotation would work better than a back to a lincoln

it looks like a backflip to lincoln 180, otherwise known as backflip to underflip.

Venus fly trap is a backflip 180 to frontflip. Simon is doing a frontflip to front full (360). Venus flytraps are typically done on quarterpipes, but theres a clip of a guy doing a switch venus flytrap in one of the early ski movies by msp.

if we were doin BMX it would be a dub flair, he clearly does a backflip for the first flip then the 2nd one is an underflip, he goes 90ish then lincons then 90 out.

no matter what its prbly the most stylish dub flip in the pipe right now


and tanner can name it what he likes....prbly a massive flip if u ask me

flippy spinny.

maybe you could say double invert 900. 

it definitely is not a type of animal, or a type of booze, or any sort of inanimate object unrelated to skiing. 

that's my two cents.

REGARDLESS, NICE TRICK TANNER!  MUCH RESPECT!
