nice, but so you saying that that trick has never been done before or that you have never done it before ? cause im having a hard time believing noone has ever done a flat 5 in the history of skiing ever before

that's probably why no one has really done it before, cause why would skiing want to be associated with roller blading anymore than it may be already.

yea that's what i was thinking. same year he did his massive ally-op flat 5 at WSI he was doing downhill flat 9's... still one of the craziest things I've seen in the pipe to this day.

I've seen Dorey and Peter O do that really sick too. He should dub it, so it's like Luke Mitrani's first hit in his pipe runs. That'd be ill.

I don't think any skier has thought about doing the trick, then realised they do it rollerblade to finally decide not to try it...

anyways, to the guy who suggested peter olenick did it, well you were right : look at 1:06

I love how everyone is saying that dosent look hard- he is arguably the best pipe skier on the planet and for him to have to try it into a bag you know its hard

Yeah I got that... the angle is weird but I'm pretty certain pete's one is spinning left on left wall, just like his whiskey flip, thus not alley-oop. I'm talking about the shot right after the whiskey

sorry about that, I just reread myself... I meant spinning left on RIGHT wall. The point is that it's not alley-oop though

its on the left wall. it is slightly confusing because the whiskey flip is shot from the top, the flat 5 is shot from the bottom.

either way, i feel like dave crichton did this trick... maybe in forward? somebody help me out here. props to rolland on a fucking hard rotation.

thats not a new trick. Eric Pollard did the same trick back in 2001 in Propaganda.

The shot after the whiskey flip is a standard left wall, left spinning, alley-oop flat 5 that pretty much everyone does (unless they have an alley-oop flat 3 in their run ala Tanner, Riddle, Duncan).

The shot is from the bottom of the pipe, whereas the dub just prior is shot from the top...so it's an illusion.

But, you're arrogance and stubbornness tempted me to be a dick, not gonna lie.
