he started to future spin, but somehow spun back in time before he even hit the jump

This is technically a "past spin," due to the fact that his second rotation was more than the prior rotation. Therefore, the reverse rotation took him into the past.

Aerialists and gymnasts don't spin the same way freeskiers do. They spin by using their arms to access the centrifugal force of their flipping which is what spins them, so shifting their arms the other way reverses the spin because they are still flipping and have considerable angular momentum. It is the same as how they can do a straight backflip then a back full without setting any spin off the takeoff.

It was described to me better than that once, but it doesn't violate any newtonian physics.

he found a point where he could stop the rotation, and throw the force that he had with the left side spin all the way to the right.

There are basically 2 points ways of rotating on the horizontal plane. Imagine one as a pin going through your body from head to toe. Imagine the other as a sphere as if you are moving around against the inside (basically how a "cork" 3 is done). So essentially on skis you could carve a cork 3 in one direction while having your body spin in the opposing direction.

I made that up. The only way I could actually make sense of this.

I feel like eventually people will develop the core strength to further stop their rotation, applying it to dub corks and what not. My mind has been thoroughly fucked.

It would actually be sick to see a guy wind up for a big spin, then stall the rotation out mid air and float it out.

I want to see a flip pretzel where he spins the same the whole time but goes backflip -> frontflip maybe like: http://www.continentseven.com/pushloop-into-forward-loop-philip-koster/
