did a dub first done in the pipe by skiers or boarders? i know we've had the whiskey flip for a couple years but in recent times, obviously this year, dub corks in pipe have been huge and practically a necessity for comps (just look at gagnier from earlier today at slope elimination).

it depends what you consider a double cork. some people consider michachluk's double flips in the pipe in the late 90s the first dubs corks. the way dub corks are done on snowboards now was done first by david benedek in 91 words for snow.

Few athletes are that out of touch with reality.
In a "sport" that is quickly trying to distance it's self from that word and the connotations it brings Shaun White continues to try to bring it back to the way it was 10 years ago. doing a dub14 in a pipe IS NOT PROGRESS; and that goes for skiing too. all that is, is gymnastics on snow. Progression is doing approaching something old differently, going out and finding new places new things, taking influences from other places and being creative. spinning like a dervish on skis or a snowboard has been done before. just youtube 18000 thats right 18000 on straight skis. And double flips? pretty sure aerialists were doing those in the 70's and they're a warmup trick for aerialists now. So you can say (any big air rider) is being so progressive, and most of them are. Just now when they invent a new variation of a double flip/cork.
