im pretty sure this is a repost, but it is still fucking sick. on a semi-related note, when do you think we will start seeing switch dub 7s? because if that was a switch dub 9, a dub 7 shouldnt be too far off right?

I was gonna post this, i think it would be really hard for the spin to not look like a flat though.

So was this on purpose? If so, did he set his din low on one ski to eject or?

Yes, it was on purpose. To do this you have to set your din at around 2-3, depending on your weight. Use your foot that will be trailing the spin (ex. spin left, undo right binding). Be sure to hit a jump with a LOT of pop, preferably an aerial's double jump, and when you take off purposely catch the trailing ski's outside edge into the lip. The force will rip your ski off, perfectly. You won't even notice until you land that your ski properly came off so just throw the trick as you normally would.

no, was not meant to land on one ski.
binding broke 2 jumps before and was sketchy for the rest of his contest
not sure if you guys were trolling
