Backcountry Triple?

Has a triple been done on a true backcountry booter yet? If not, who do you guys think will be the first to do so? I'd bet on Chris Benchetler.

Who's the first. And I'm not triple crazy, but the sport is clearly headed there and it's only natural for a triple to happen in the backcountry. So lets throw down some predictions.

Matt mulligan did a triple back off a backcountry booter cliff two years ago in his superunknown video.

Yeah, off axis. But if there is footage of a triple back, that would nice to see as well. And yeah, I think you are right with a park jock gunning for this title. Will probably be bobby brown at a Prospecting Idaho shoot or something along those lines.

delorme did a triple back in after dark

i would bet on one of the major all around skiers doing it, like sammy carlson, bobby brown, tim durtschi or any of the park skiers that are rediculous at backcountry. or delorme will do it again...

I'm sayin Sammy or Tudor. Both have their subs really on lock in the bc, even tho bobby brown got a triple in the park it's gonna be so hard for him to land in pow

I think Delorme s was the first. Although it was not a triple flip and not off axis, who cares? Im sure Dane will have a triple rodeo in the backcountry this season, as he has hinted he would try. I guess that wud be cool

if you are referring to mike mertion, I havent seen him around in forever. if anyone knows of any new edits or what he is up to you should tell me because he has always been a favorite of mine after I saw pretty good.
