This thread left me wondering, whats the difference between a D-spin and a underflip? Cuz their both supposed to be inverted corks...

well, first of all, like i said no one really says d spin any more. it's just sort of splitting hairs.. an inverted cork, great.. back towards 2000 it was common to do and say dspins but that's sort of phased out and nowadays people usually just say cork (as we should, IMO)

underflip is just like a 90 to uphill lincoln (side flip) to 90.. looks like a 180 to switch frontflip too. if i had it my way people would just call them cork 5s.. all the hair splitting in trick names in skiing is very silly IMO

oh and people don't generally refer to anthing over 5 as an underflip.. and there's really no dspin under 7 so there's your answer, don't need to worry about confusing those two

Isn't a D-spin a double, technically? a spin a that is corked THEN goes fully inverted? I'm pretty sure that's how it is.

Well not a double, but it's not an underflip in the sense that it goes inverted GRADUALLY not right away. Like, you need at least 720.

So to clarify, almost all tricks in aerials are d-spins?

D-spins do go inverted, pretty fast. A true d, you're fully inverted by 180ish. And no, a d's not a double as you mentioned earlier. Just think of it as a super corked cork 7. Thats all it is. Or a cork 7 is a not very d, d-7.
