sweet thread guys..

anyway ill try to name as many people as i can think of.. kris ostness then candide for wind up, candide was the first to clear it successfully i think, then the next year did a dpsin7 over it. then chris collins and some others..maybe sage and/or jamie pierre? for tgr i think..maybe idk. then tanner and pollard for wski 106. then jon and tanner for TBC when they hit it switch/did switch 9s, then i remember seeing a dude called jesse hall hit it in an edit on here at some point since then, did a huge lawn dart with a gopro on. and at some point travis rice and romain de marchi hit it, forget what year that was, whatever year pop came out i think. and those dudes on here who started that huge thread hit it at some point, i think the year war was filmed

im sure im forgetting some people or just dont know about some but that's all i can think of

Lots, and lots, and lots, and lots of people. It's not unknown. It's not hard to setup. It's not a big deal. More random people that you'll never hear of than you'll ever realize. Who cares.

haha relax dude, sorry for helping to answer the dude's question. and there probably aren't that many unknown people who have hit it. a good number im sure, but "lots and lots and lots and lots" is just you being dramatic

I believe chad's gap is a myth...maybe one or two people hit it aside from Tanner Hall but aside from that i think it's fake. Some guy made thread about it and hit it as well (which must be the second person) but ultimately it's a snowboarder thing

I don't think you are wrong in saying quite a few people have hit it that we will never know about. But I disagree when you say it isn't hard to set up and it's not a big deal. The amount of time that it takes to set up is a lot longer then you think. Also flying 120 feet through the air on a jump you built with a big wall is always a big deal.

i think if that's true he'd have smashed a lot more than his goggles...

and Chad is the guy who found it.

Some snowboarder that discovered it, can't remember his last name. Candide was in the area for the x-games but didn't qualify so he hung out with Chad's crew. Chad and a few other snowboarders gave it a try with no luck. Candide asked if he could hit it and became the first person to ever make the gap. He grabbed mute.

ive already said that im sure there are a good number of people who have hit it that i dont know about, but for such nitpickers/arguers of semantics you two sure are light on the examples. plenty of condescension though so at least there's that

Well fuck Chad it should be the Candide gap then considering he was the first to clear it. Although it does take some balls to be the first to hit it.
