i do know what switch backside is. i don't care if its switch backside. it was ugly. was it impressive? yes. can i do it? no. In no way am i comparing my ability and style to this video. I cant come close. I was comparing it to the mark micmorris or whatever his name is. I am aware his trick was less tech but it was far more eye pleasing. calling out my skill and where i reside and ski really has nothing to do with my knowledge of snowboarding and my thoughts on a video.
I agree with this guy right here. Everyone bashing... post up your triples so we can critique them. Till then, just appreciate the progression. I'm sure this kid will make them look more stylish as he continues to nail his shit down but lets be real, do you expect the first switch triple to be smooth as butter? If you say yes, fuck yourself. hehe jk but really.
you cannot compare the two because they are completely DIFFERENT tricks on completely DIFFERENT jumps. and as for style, you obviously have no clue because you're determining style based on how fast he was rotating and his landing (which was insane for a FIRST successful attempt) but while completely negating the fact he grabbed throughout most of the rotation. and apparently where you ride and how good you are is more than correlating to the ignorant hate you're spewing for something that should not receive any hate at all. just keep your mouth shut. you don't know what you're even watching.
i watched a switch backside triple cork? is that no what i watched? apparently thats not what i watched. it was i sick trick. im not denying that. im simply stating that it wasn't the prettiest and i would rather watch marks, who did a triple in two tries also and landed a lot cleaner. and just a heads up there wil be hate everywhere so get over it
i really dont care what it was. i know nothing about snowboarding nor do i care about what i watched. i was having a terrible day and i wanted to argue with someone. thank you sir and have a wonderful evening
