Thats a beastly jump for sure, but it seems like it will need some more pop to get enough air to get a trip around.

I don't think Jon will be the 1st to do a "true" triple cork, don't get me wrong he's an amazing jumper, I just think that trick is too crazy hard to just jump right into it yet, I'm guessing triple rodeo/flatspin like Bobby B.

He definitely wants to do something new. How is he going to give it a name if he isn't the first to do it?

wait wut? is the triple flatspin in the The Way I See It trailer the so-called triple cork?

whats the deal about people think they can call tricks whatever they want just because it's triple. Torstein Horgmo did a triple backflip with a 180 at the end, and somehow they called it triple cork??

yeah, but it was no way AT ALL a cork, he went super inverted 3 times.
i dont know boarder terms very well, but it looked alot like a triple rodeo

even the last rotation on all the dub 10's and 12's everyone are doing is a weird flip/spin thingy

well, he's right that neither bobby b or torstein did a triple cork. bobby's was a triple rodeo/flat, and torstein's was a triple underflip

That was Bobby's triple flat, and Torstein's was triple frontside rodeo, why is everyone confused about that?

I hate those who hate on Jon, because what he does is amazing. He hosts one of the biggest events of skiing of freeskiing every year. He races and is hoping to go to the olympics in 2014, and he is one of pushes the sport SO MUCH.

Yeah, theoretically he could do dub cork 10 to cork 3, but for it to look like a "true" triple cork I think he'd need to take it to 1620, and do 3 cork 5s.
