i have always wondered of a flat 180 was possible. now before all the rage starts among butthurt NSers who think im referring to a flat 5 as a flat 1, please let me explain my concept, for it is quite simple.
first, you need two quarter-pipes set up one next to each other but facing opposite directions, like this:

next, all you need is a stick-figure who has the balls to guinea-pig this trick. all you do is throw a veeeery slow flat 3 and land switch in the second QP, like this:

and afterbang your way out of this. but film it.


that is it...so

tramps ≠ skiing. this would not work i think, feel like it would just be an underflip or something

i get it now
i guess i didn't register that you go up vertically, and that it's not the same as as a jump to landing
thanks for giving me the confidence to see the light

Hahahahaha!  

To Op, I think for this to work, your q-pipe would have to stop just shy of vert.  Otherwise the best you could hope for is to drop straight onto your back on the deck of the landing q-pipe.  Either that or the landing q-pipe would have to be slightly uphill from the take off.  I also think you would have to change underwear even if you skied it out.  Dropping head first on your back would take a little while to get used to IMO.

yeah, i thought of the same thing. but it would be more like 1.5 flip thing :P

I'm pretty sure it can be done, but it would take a lot of tries, a lot..
