I wouldnt even go as far to say that was a wackflip. Just a triple back trying to grab japan.

I say triple flat. Definitely not triple back. Not a single one of those flips was completely straight upside down.

I thought Andy Parry posted in a thread explaining how flats are just glorified wackflips. I would post it if I could find it.

95% of "flat spins" are just slightly off back flip japans.

The term "flat spin" was given to the back flip japan to help make it a illegitimate new school trick.

Props to this kid for #YOLOing life and the rest of you need to stop hating.

-Andy Parry

Still , I disagree , they are not flatspins and will never be stop calling them flat 3s they are whackflips

There'd just way too much grey area for me to care haha. Either way it was a pretty sick trick, was it not?

flatspins are flat - like on a horizontal plane parallel to the ground. imagine a gracefulass pollard flat 5 now watch the video. they look nothing alike. that is a triple backflip/wackflip
on a similar note, stop calling inverted rodeos flatspins

I feel like back flips with japan grabs have come to be known as flat spins, but they are really a different trick all together.  The 12:00 minute mark in "Idea" is the best example of a true flat spin 3 that I've ever seen

As for this, I say it's just a dope triple wackflip

You ever done a flat? Even on a tramp? I'm going to assume you have not by that comment. Technically a TRUE FLAT is physically impossible. As as far as skiing flatspins go, that is the best triple flat we will see in awhile.

haha you say true flats are impossible when there's clearly a link to a video of one in this thread...

that triple backflip was a triple backflip.  it's suck as fuck that he sent it but there's no point in claiming a different trick.

By true flat I mean spinning on only a horizontal axis. In skiing's terms that is definitely a great flat.

no , It's not,



3:33 that's probably the truest flatspin I've seen on skis,generally when they are thrown alley oop they are truer flat.
but that's just my opinion I guess , seeing by every other response telling me I'm retarded and that flatspins are backflip with a japan.
