hey why doesn't anyone ever just do back scratchers, daffys, and double twists anymore, its not like they are ez as crap, but the bigger the air, the bigger the trick, and the more skill it takes. I mean, i do all the old school shit AND the new school stuff to, but why doesn't anyone submit them?

backscratchers don't look as cool and they arent as hard as grabs. People still do daffys. Twisters look ugly.

they look ugly to do, but say if you throw in a 360 with them, you shit your pants cause it looks so sick. Daffys are ugly, but backscrachers are pretty cool.

old school stuff is the shit, and personally, id say a good backscratcher is a lot harder than a grab. But the best thing is when people combine old school and new, like grabbing the backs of ur skis on a backscrather, or doing spins with daffys or spreads. Also, old school stuff is easy and fun for people who aren't very good at jumping. Like my dad, he's like 50 and does all the old school stuff, its hilarious

a real nice backscratcher spinning is nice

daffys are alright and look pretty cool if you do like 3 or 4 consecutively while spinning

backscratchers can be hard on larger jumps cause your momentum of you pushing your skiis back makes you cork.

I recall there being a pic of the member of the month (resnik?) doing a cossack in the pipe - looked pretty sweet.

You know, if you look at the REALLY old videos, stuff from the 70s - most of what we are doing these days has been done already anyhow.
