I honestly like McRea's more than Russ's for some reason...but I'm pretty sure Bobby's still wins the style factor out of all of the so far.

ya except you can do a double off a 50 foot jump no problem, but you need at least a 100 footer to do a hucked triple, just way to much spinning if you ask me, they are just dipping into the 3 cork by the time they are at the knuckle, and sending it all they down the landing, and still it looks like they are forcing the spin trying to get it around in time, you might be right, or a body just cannot spin that fast in that small amount of time

people have been doing dubs for several years now. obviously they are more comfy with them, thus able to throw them on smaller jumps. and like i said before, they're still learning

Pretty cool for basically the first attempts at triples. They'll get refined, people need to stop bitching about how they look forced.

You're dumb.  Do all of you haters just expect skiing to just stop progressing?  Where the hell else do you expect it to go?  Everything else has pretty much been done.  All rotations, dubs, with all grabs and so many different styles, have all been attained.  There is not a whole ton of new shit left, we have to be honest with ourselves about that.  Suck it up and embrace the triple.

Forced is the dumbest word in the history of freeskiing. The sport involves hitting 100 foot plus jumps and spinning and flipping. Of course things looked forced, thats not exactly strolling down the street. This whole idea that the only way to do things is to look like your asleep is insanity

EVERY SINGLE PERSON who says their tricks don't look good, go step in front of a buss. if YOU can do it better, then you can complain. but since pretty much all of you will never do more than some pussy 360 off a 20 ft roller jump, stfu and admit how insanely good they are (and insanely better than you (and me)) at skiing. queers.

Although shit like this generally gets deleted, I'm leaving this up to make an example out of you: NO HOMOPHOBIC SLURS.

Also, people are allowed to have opinions on things whether they can do them or not. One isn't required to like something simply because they can't do it.

Stop whining.

Personally, I'm stoked for McCrae and think the trips look sick.

Going back to the "I'd rather see a big steezy 5" argument - I think that the bigger spins don't leave much room for individual style, seems like it has to be so calculated that there's not as much variety in the way people do dubs (and certainly in the future trips) compared to the amount of variety you see in smaller, slower rotations.

I don't think it's a bad thing, I just think it's different.

i think theres alot potential for variation in trips, since theres so many more cork combos, like cork 7 to dub flat from bobby in comparisn to that of mcrae. but i might be wrong. anyways, stoked for the triples.

you just have to spin so fast for a trip, people do dubs off 40 foot jumps (ex. chris laker, nine knights entry), it seems like you should be able to do a triple no problem off a 100+ jump with ease because you have a double the air time vs a 40 or 50 footer (correct if wrong),  but that doesnt seem the case, prly until less than a year maybe more  someone will get a trip dialed in and hopefully make it look stylish

Exactly what I was thinking. It's great to FINALLY see a "true" triple cork in any discipline, whether it be skiing or snowboarding. While others are borderline, there really can be no disputing that it was as true a triple cork as anyone's thrown. I guess that's what you get for going bigger on spins -- the off-axis rotation mellows out over a longer radial spin.

Are you kidding me? You guys are whining that it looks forced. Think about this. You are being picky about triples. A trick we have wanted to see on ski's in a contest for years. It finally happens and some of you start complaining about the style factor. That's just absurd! Triple(s) were thrown! I'm more stoked that I have been in a while and you should be to. They will clean them up, but for now it finally happened!
