Has this trick ever been done, or at least attempted?

Okay so approach the jump switch, then do a misty 5 and over rotate it into a backflip, so its a misty 5 to backflip, i can do it on trampolines and diving boards just wondering if anyone has done it on skis

that's pretty much impossible..you can't go from a forward thrown trick to a backflip..maybe i dunno.


that's fucked.




what is going on in my brain

Dub misties are often explained as a misty 5 to a backflip. So what you just described would probably just end up looking like a sw dub misty 9, which someone has probably done.

I've seen a back flip to a front flip.... It's not impossible.

are you guys stupid... it's perfectly possible.

continuing after a misty five puts you facing up the hill and flipping towards the landing.... aka a backflip...

it'd be balsy as fuck and sketchy as fuck though.

You may have the momentum to do that on skis, the real question is if you have the balls? I for one, certainly do not.

If you take off forwards, its completely reasonable.
But if you take off switch, like the OP says... I can't see it being possible. It just doesn't make sense.

A switch misty 7 to backflip might be possible, or a switch misty 5 to frontflip, but not a switch misty 5 to backflip.

Ski movie credits or propaganda credit section I think, it's like a front flip, 180, backflip.

take of sw and do a misty 5? so like a sw flair? or are you thinking sw rodeo 5 then a backflip?

You can do a sw misty 5 then do a backflip that would defy physics.

op you might mean switch rodeo to backflip since they're thrown like forward misties which is possible. but a switch misty 5 would leave you facing and flipping forwards so a backflip wouldn't be possible.

This is what its called. Steeger did one off of a cliff in an edit I saw once. Legendary.

if it wasn't switch that would be a dub misty 9 i think as that sounds similar to what i do on the trampoline (sorta misty 5 into backie) but switch wouldnt really make sense as the second flip should be a frontflip as you've done a half turn. so sounds like a dub rodeo perhaps, i dont really know to honest.

Pretty sure you guys don't understand what op's describing, in my head it makes sense. Sw misty has you flipping up-mountain, after the misty your flip momentup still goes up-mountain, but you're now facing down the mountain, like a backflip. Do it op

in "Few Words" Candide does a sw rodeo 5 to a backflip. The B-flip after the rodeo is SUPER laid out too.

watch that video and pretend that instead of doing the last 180 he does a backflip. What OP is saying does make sense.

I've done it on the trampoline as well and I know what your talking about, doing it forward it would be misty 5 to backflip, but switch it would have to be a misty 7 for it to work I'm pretty sure

not what you are looking for but pretty close i think. Simon does front flip to front full, and switch dub rodeo, i think
