....and I've decided I like Mike Wilson's double cork/flip/spin better than any of the other's I've seen.  I think it might just be because he's all tucked and compact and the rotation just looks clean.

yea his is good, but so is sage's. i like how jon said the following year he wanted to do something completely different when two accomplished skiers had already done double corks.

I don't think I remember Sage's.  What was it in?  Props to Jon, but he definitely wasn't the first.

because jon made a big deal about his double , while wilson was being the stunt man he is and just being stright up crazy with doubles . which i think is way more bad ass

TBC > any other ski movie out.

And I think there are a few dubs that are, if not better, a match for Wilson's.

PK & Jacob both have pretty tight dubs, and T-Hall & Dorey's are pretty sick in the pipe.

Cosco's is illin' too.

And Mike Clarke has a really steezy one.
