Benedek started double corks. He was the first one doing them about 4 or 5 years ago now. First one he did was a dub cork 10 on a quarter pipe at alpine.
But thats nuts... hes doing a Switch Backside rodeo 12 and at the same time spinning the other way doing cab double corks? Thats almost underheard of. And he can do ront double cork 10s.
Maybe skiers dont understand, but imagine doing 2 different ways of double corks and spinning a third way rodeo 12.
From my knowledge i dont think anyone is doing true backside double corks.

He still amazes me. Always been killing it since back in the days of robot food.

yea, jp did'em first. i think it was regular though. but the modern incarnation that benedek and others do was first done by travis rice in pop over pyramid gap. the only other person i've seen do them the jp walker way is dan brisse.

Obviously no disrespect to PK by this comment but I think the rotations Benedek was doing are way more technical. Switch BS is nuts and he pulls this stuff pretty smooth. I had to watch the 12 a few times to make sure it wasn't a 10. The axis he rotates on is not normal by any means.

PK's was crazy because of the way he stalled the spin out. It was soo sick.

i think both benedek and travis rice are better than andreas hatviet at dub corks. rice can do 5 different dub corks not including his dub flips.

Actually I think the first documented double cork was Romaine De Marchi, back in 01, but he didn't land it, I think he was just going for glory without intent to land. And Jp's double (as done in The Shakedown, 03) was called a Chakkah flip at the time, which was more of a fs rodeo to a late flip but pretty close really. But Rice's double over pyramis was probably the cleanest example of a double to that date (04 season). Benedek started tossing them down on kickers and transition (which he was first and still on of the only people to do it on such) in 05's film 91 Words for Snow. Either way Benedek is probably one of my favorite snowboarders, his film work is beyond almost any other video company out there (being he was key director of Robot Food and then Blank Paper) also he's a really modest and chilled out dude. Good find.

yeah i was going to say that.
well not exactly that but yeah.
David has been my favorite snowboarder for a while, just cuz hes out there throwing down, yet has been a big part of both robot food and blank paper and on top of that he was one of the organizers of the Gap Session.
Definitely legit and hes not out there parading himself around and such. Just keeping it mellow and chill.
