I was kind of away from NS for a while during the fall to finish up my final semester of college, but I feel like even still I would have seen something about this before. XGames just released an edit with Henrik and he's doing some pretty fucked up stuff in it. Including a rodeo/flat/cork/who the fuck knows 180 safety at 2:52 that seems to break physics into a million pieces. Either this is new footage, or I've been even more out of it that I thought...

I haven't seen this one yet, but Lolo did the best cork 180 of all time 10ish years ago

I know Lolo did it a while ago, but it's such a rare trick that whenever it's done there's usually a big deal made about it - like with that Russian guy last winter. Plus, the way Henrik does this one seems really different than Lolo's, he stops and reverts back the other direction. I just don't know how I missed this if it isn't new, ha.

I'd seen other shots in that before but none from the prime park session. His rotations are all just fucked good god

It's still not a "180" he does a full flip, hence its at least a 360. Please stop calling tricks with 540 degrees of rotation a 180.

So if I do a legit cork 3 and before landing, revert 180, is it a cork 1 or a 5?

I'm not referring to a corked rotation, im refering to a flipping rotation.

But, in that case, it would be neither, it would be a cork 3 revert, or something like that.

Regardless of what that was (it did look a little more like a flip thing than a cork 180 thing), I'm pretty sure Harlaut's doubles are the only ones I like. He seems to be one of the only guys out there putting odd, weird and creative rotations into into the mix.

Touche. I like everything Jossi does. I guess it would be more accurate to say there are a tiny few people I actually enjoy watching do doubles. Harlaut is one of them.

This isn't right it'd be a 180 because he never fully flips he stops half way. But id call it an under flip 180 not really set like a flatspin in my opinion

His body flips one time, he does at least a 360.

Tricks like these aren't defined by the amount of rotation they do. It is in no way a 180.

I disagree but that's just me, if you're seeing that it's more than 180 then to each their own. I respect that.

The problem with this is the flip vs spin debate. In a flat you technically don't flip so it could be classified as a 180

Every rotation that is a "flip" counts the flip as a rotation, I'm applying the definition just fine. Flat 3 is called a 360 is because you do a fucking 360, the axis of a rotation doesn't define if you "count it" or not.

No.. I'm pretty sure the reason ts called a flat 3 is because if its a true flat 3 its precisely what the name implies, 360 degrees of rotation in the form of a flatspin.

a lot of people disagree, but in the end nobody really cares what you call the trick. we all know it was sick, and there's no reason to be a trick nazi and turn the thread into a shitstorm of trick classification. regardless of what anybody says most people are goin to call it a flat 1.
thats just my 2 cents

No one does a flat spin the way you just described it other than a very select few. A flat spin is still a 360 rotation anyways, any other variation would be "corked". If someone throws a flat 3, flops their body around to land backwards, they probably were doing something closer to a cork 180. Get what I'm saying? Flat/rodeo defines a flip, like I said if you watch a mark abma or Eric Pollard flat 3, they're still 'flipping' just not necessarily inverted. Just because you don't go inverted doesn't mean you're not flipping and doing a 360 through that flip. A true flat 3 is the same rotation as a rodeo, just off axis and that's why you can't have a flat 180, period.

The trick posted earlier called 'flat 180' was most certainly a flip, even if he just leaned his head to the side, he's still flipping. Just because someone does a trick and contorts their body doesn't mean they're on a different axis or whatever you're trying to describe.

It looks like he does half a lincoln loop (180) and then half a switch frontflip (180). So it's some sort of 360, but on more than one axis

I'm in total agreement with this one sentence but you haven't disproven what is said. You said earlier in the thread that cork 180 and 3 are possible becasue they arent flips. I'm saying he's doing a true flat and not flipping (unlike alot of backlip japans people do calling them flat 3s) and basically doing a cork1 but with his belly up instead of down. hence flat not cork.

BUT! I dont care anymore what people call this! Names Don't Matter. henrik and tight and lets just respect his arial wizardry!

Dude by your logic a flat 5 should be called a flat 9. Flips don't count as spins, if somebody did a backflip and landed switch would you call it a backflip 540? Of course not, because it's a backflip 180.

A flat/rodeo 5 is a backflip with a 180 that is off axis. A flip is 360 plus the 180 rotation = flat/rodeo 5.
