I was just noticing the different kind of inverts the pros do in comps and videos. It seems like I never see a straicht back or front flip. Its all about rodeos, lincolns, flat spins, flairs, mistys. I know that front and back flips are super easy, maybe thats why they don't do them. I dunno, I was just wonderin'...

I imagine a plain back/front flip wouldnt score well, maybe close to a 360 grab or something? While if you do a lincoln 180 with a nice grab..it would score better, anyone got any comments on this?

back in the AREA 51 days Jp auclair threw down the back mutes all the time, but that was before the smooth d-spin 720's and switch misty nines that are just as smooth


so i said to her 'look baby,i'm not saying your not beutifal, i'm just not sure my man in there wants to pay for it'

what about jp in Ski Movie, he bust sick straight backflips with a cross. But I dont think that a backflip would score very well at all. wonder if anyone could do a double backflip with a mute, that would be sick, or a japan double, do they exist?

Ummm, sarah burke does a sweet back tail in propaganda. If this is in fact a trick question, the correct answer is twelve.

I have seen people throw switch lincoln loop 180's. Kind of similar to switch rodeo 540's.

Mike Schimke who was in this years xgames as well as the WSI can do switch lincons. he said there kinda ugly still but its a cool idea anyhow.

as for a double lincon i'd like to see that shit... i've tried them on the diving boads before and they failed miserably.

come on back out to the midwest dirty, its a guy named crazy dave cairnes from michigan. he isnt sponsored by anyone since he doesnt care about that at all. 2 years ago theymade a epic 60 foot parking lot tow in and he double linconed it twice. he tried a corked 7 after that and broke his shoulder though

What I really want to see is a lincon-90 off of a raised rail... That seems possible and also dope as hell.

in propaganda some guy throws a double front flip 180 who ever wanted to see a double front.

nick mercon does a double backflip in further

how can we forget mike d's back mute grab that was in every ski magazine as a salomon add.

and adam schrad does a switch backflip 180 frontflip in high society.

diareha, burn in hell, becca is my friend and she was happy she got the first one around, she didn't untuck soon enough. for the record she was fine, just had the wind knocked out of her...
