Is it possible to spin 180 in one direction and then spin 180 back while in the air. My physics teacher says you can't do it but I think that its possible if you have enough air and rotate slow enough

no possible way, unfortunately...that would be sick.

yeah dude, you cant just reverse direction of the energy in the spin, not gonna happen in this universe

You can't spin 180 and then 180 back, but I guess if you keep your upper body steady you can. Kind of like that old school moguls move (can't remember the name) where you move your legs 90 degrees to one side, then 180 degrees back, then 90 degrees back to center....

if you put a small rocket on your hip to spin you back around you could do it....otherwise there is no way....physics is for real
Estctst101 got the last one . Here is a new riddle:



From house to house he goes,

A messenger small and slight.

And whether it rains or snows,

He sleeps outside at night.

What am I?

why not? big enough flip, anything's possible. remember morrison's underflip attempt in..... i wanna say ski movie 3? or focused?....... half a backflip, and a 180, reverted to a half frontflip and 180 the other direction. he almost stomped it.

It has to do with the conservation of angular momentum.. It's impossible.

aps unless u are 11 years old you should be ashamed you dont kno what a twister is. everyone starts doin twisters and spread eagles. and i dont think you can 180 to 180 back weve tried and just got broke off

If you were wearing super baggy clothes and caught a big enough wind gust, then yes it would be possible. Consider sky boarding, they spin, stop, and reverse the direction of their spins. You could substitute any factor (wind, rocket, gun...) that would stop bring you angular momentum to an instantaneous zero, and eventually change its' direction. Not at all likely, but possible.

Yeah, cause the wind gust would put a torque on you and allow you to switch going the other direction. But, it's still pretty much impossible.

to truely do it is imposible, but you could a twister and make it look as if you are doing a 180 and then coming back. MFM in Love/Hate has some shiftys where he goes about 90 degrees w/his body, and then brings it back, its pretty Gangster.

Mike Wilson's zero spins are fucking sick. It looks like he spins 90 degrees, grabs and tweaks the hell outta it, then slowly rotates back. But I could be wrong, it could be just that he tweaks so much

yeah i think its possible, its try doing it without skis on the flat, youll make it promise, but youll have to have your body twisted.

ok so you spin left, you do a 180 with a huge twister to the left and then swing it back to the right

In X=ten Niklas Karlstrom does a 360 twist.
It looks like he is doing a 180 then he turns his skis 90 degrees in the opposite direction and then he turns them in the other direction again. But with the chest he s doing the 360 . He turns only the legs doing the twist.
It looks pretty sick

Not sure how it can work on skis but ive tried it and rotated 180 and back in into the pool, but with skis that would be more difficult.

Its possible if you only move your upper body 90 degrees, and if you spin the first 180 slowly and the second real fast.

the only way you can come close is with a shifty, end of discussion

other than just rotating your lower body back and forth you obviously can't change the way your momentum is going, and unless you are completely dense you would have known that

It's possible, If you dont give yourself so much momentum when you leave the jump in the direction, You'll be able to turn yourself back.

it has to be possible sice in THPS2,3,4 and all of them you could do a 3 in one way and a 3in the other direction! but if for real life it can't be done unless your sky diving

Being out there skiing every day, good or bad, just playing around with friends, with no contests or filming- that is the real spirit of skiing for me. that is why i started skiing, and if i lose those moments that is what will make me stop skiing.

If you have a big enough jump, and enough control over your body, its possible

Are you people serious? Your physics teacher is CORRECT.
You may be able to perform a reasonably passable facsimile of this maneuver, but to truly rotate in one direction, and then stop, and change direction WITHOUT an outside force acting upon you is NOT POSSIBLE.
Newton Proved it and it is stated as his first LAW OF MOTION.
I. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.

Your body has nothing to push against to turn...ever notice how when you spin you start your spin at the edge of the lip? Ever wonder why? Try and jump straight and then try to 180 AFTER you completely leave the jump....like at the apex of your trajectory....it IS IMPOSSIBLE!! anything else is just an illusion!

it is impossible that vid is not of what we are talking about...if a 180 to 180 is possible....then you could jump a table go half way across, turn around come back and ski back down the landing
