Lol at everyone agreeing that between the legs is the right way until an orange name posts differently.

I respect that the trick is traditionally done the armpits way but I've never seen or heard of anyone doing it that way before today so I don't know.

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that >80% of "Newschoolers" don't know the correct names for old school tricks.

It should be said, however, that names of tricks are not matters of opinion, especially when those tricks were invented before you started skiing.

I must say I agree with this. I mean freedom is good and all, but if we all of a sudden allowed tricks to be re-named at will, we'd both never give credit to their inventors and have total anarchy.

Well, it sounds like we need to spark a Cossack renaissance, Whistler revolution perhaps?

One of my favorite triples out there.

Whether that's a "Cossack" or "cherry picker" that is cool.
