New axis of rotation

Something new in yesterday's update is the way flippy spinny things look. If you do a flip/spin combo you'll notice the spin happens inside the flip instead of the other around. Looks more like arials. If you spin 90 and do a lincoln loop, you will loop up or down the hill instead of whatever it did before. Going off a jump at an angle and doing a flip makes it go off axis. Butters look different now too.

What do you think of this change?

I love the new update, especially the flippy spinny shit, it looks way smoother. I still don't know how I feel about the new buttering, it seems like there is less of a distinction between nose and tail butters, like the trail is coming from the middle of his skis. It just looks like he is spinning down the hill rather than pressed forward or backwards. Either way though, quarter pipe is dope, great ender.

i like the quarter pipe and tail butters but i dont really fancy the new axis on anything but the qp, is you just straight up backflip spin with a tail in the qp, it looks so dope
but it has made my "corks" look fucktarded

you can do even smoother over/under flips using the back and front buttons than with the lincoln ones. id like it a lot better if just the lincolns were back to normal

no now you can do rodeos more the way you normally would.
try a slowed down backflip 5 with a grab and see.
