SlopeStyle Triples

Jpurd · 2011-08-19 13:54:37

Now I am not really for or against triples.. I don't really know what to think but when do you think we will see a triple in a slopestyle run. I don't think x games will build jumps big enough and idk if Dew Tour will or not? Thoughts?

i doubt at aspen they will. their slope course is already cramped, idk if they would have the speed to make triple size jumps with the allotted space they have. even tho aspen is the best place for winter x, i still wish they would move it all to whistler. crazy candians + whistler+ aussies+ x games+ beer = win. all they need is a good beer sponsor like how kokanee backs crankworx.

this year in the start lounge i heard the thought of sammy going for a triple on his final run on the first or second jump he was sw dub 9ing.

hopefully they make the big air jump a little more sick

Doubtful since he didn't even do that with a perfect one hit wonder in Big Air. I think everyone thought he was going to try it in Big Air though.

Triples are done a normal sized park jumps. Triples can easily be done at.

this,

doing 1 trick (the triple) off a big air jump is a lot easier than doing 6 tricks then hucking a triple.

Well seeing as X has not yet even built a big air jump big enough to triple I don't think we will be seeing them in X slope any time soon.

Remember how this whole debate happened when doubles started showing up? I'm sure someone will at least attempt them in some comp this season.

It really makes no difference, especially on the same jump. Heard he was looking for it in both/either/any, it just didn't come together.

if Elias can dub a 7m jump I'm pretty sure he can triple a 25m in a slopestyle course... wait till january and you will see someone try some triples

true, and if hucked enough i believe they could be done on the x games big air jump. cause i'm sure several pros will have triples down pat by the time january rolls around, it's just the matter of being able to spin fast enough on a slightly smaller jump.

Aspen X Games slopestyle course has no room to make bigger jumps. That being said it is going to come down to riders being able to spin triples even faster. Doubles can be spun on really small jumps now so same thing could happen for triples.

when i was in 3rd grade there were triplets in my class and 2 of them were bullies and 1 of them was a dork. their names were Rick, Bobby, and George. i still see them around town once in a while and i think rick works at the car wash.
