My buddy Luke recently told me he has been working on a new flip called a frack flip. It is essentially a front flip 180 into a backflip. I've seen him do this into water before, but not on skis. Has anyone landed one of these on skis?? Or has anyone heard of this being done at all?

Its been done and used to be done alot on quarter pipes under a different name but i cant think of it at the moment.

Im also sure that dylan ferguson has done one in an edit at somepoint. Sorry im so lazy and didnt want to look shit up

Seems like no ones what the real name of this fucking thing is. So if anyone can think of something good to call it I say we go with that

shit reposting....i remember reading years ago, early 2000s in Freeze i think about a "Brawny Flip," which was theoretically the first half of the double you are talking about, but aerialists would use that to go from front flip into what we call a switch backflip, into a full or whatever to bring it around to forward...something like that

Here is one of the first doubles in the pipe. venus fly trap. essentially a rudie to a front flip. this is what i think your taking about with the dubs on quarters, toben sutherland was the dude who started to pioneer these, he is now one of the coaches of the Canadian Slope team with JF. https://www.newschoolers.com/membervideo/48078.1/venus-flytrap-2000?s=10122&o=8&t=6 sorry if someone could embed that would be awesome and +k

Risky Flip is D spin 7 to back flip

Venus fly Trap is flair to front in a QP or pipe

Not sure if the misty 5 to back flip has a name but isn't new. Andy Stewart a skier/ski boarder did them in 2001 or something.

Adam's was a double misty.



Op said his friend's trick is a Misty 5 stalling out into a switch back. I think I've seen one before in an edit, but it is definitely not a common trick.

In the thread I linked to they mention the Scrab one. It was at the US Open or some comp like that. The dub misty you're referring to was in the backcountry

Its called a "berani", its just a front flip with an early 180 so you finish the flip like a back flip. I'ts by no means a new trick, really common in gymnastics/ trampolining because you can spot your landing the entire way around, and is good for setting up a series of flips. It's an "oldschool" trick in skiing, like from the beginning of aerials old, but its still pretty sick.

Pretty sure its what others have said. The venus fly trap. Tell your friend to step it up a bit so its a misty to switch misty. Then he might have something special.

Went to a freestyle camp in Waterville and Dylan was one of my coaches. He did this trick 3 times back to back and it's called a fliffus(spelling?) but yeah it's a front 180 (berani) to backflip.

I've done them on tramps. A front flip 180 is technically called a branny, so i've only heard it called a branny to back.

Travis' trick was a switch back to misty 5ish. A Misty 5 to switch back would look like an entirely different trick. But I could watch that edit all day long.

fliffus is front flip to front half out.

and barani is a single flip, i think OP is talking about a double.

True actually. Like the switch/forward flipping version of what OP is describing.

Into the pool I can jump spin 180 degrees backflip then after the flip spin the other 180 degrees. Not sure how, its just my attempt at a misty 7. I can post a video if you really want.

how can so many people be wrong about one thing?

a venus fly trap is flair to front on a QP

misty to backflip is basically a dub misty 9, how can so many people miss that??

Except he's talking about a double flip, so essentially a berani INTO a backflip.
