mr-mcsteezefor cork i believe you dont have to go full inverted as long as you are far enough off axis i believe it counts as a cork. Granted its definitely up to discussion but you cant say that last flip is fully on axis


there is no flip, feet never come close to going over his head through the entire trick

Sam__MIs it really a quad though? the last "flip" was hardly off axis. Still an insane trick and mad respect to wacko but i"m not 100% convinced.


are you serious? The last one was more than some of the others

I would say this is pretty corked. His feet don't need to go over his head on a cork...

Haters will say it's not corked but even if you call that last 360 a wobble it is still a 1620 with 4 off axis rotations. I don't think anyone has done anything similar ever.

So are we gonna have another quad a couple days later like snowboarding? Now that its been done will anyone working on it stop? I have a feeling more than a few riders were working on it only for it to be copped outta nowhere in the best way possible.

Id say there's a chance Bobby has already done one and it'll be in his movie coming out in a few weeks.

Remember when these things were kept quiet until a movie premiered? That ended with Sammy's triple, would be nice to see it come back.

At first I thought it was a quad 14 which would have been even more insane but then I realized he took off switch. Oh well. Props. Now we just wait for a 15 year old to send one...

Meh... as soon as you get to cork who gives a shit.

If you want the OG quad you just hit Frank Bare.

Cork isn't a flip. For a cork you go off axis. To which wacko went off axis four times...

Everybody saying that it was a quad is fucking BLIND holy shit.

Pause the video when he's in the last rotation if you think it's not a corked rotation you shouldn't be in a conversation about what a trick is called.

a cork is defined as being "off axis", not the vertical axis, not an invert. No one ever called it a Switch quad FLIP 16. Each axis was not vertical, and not inverted right? Even if the 4th wasn't as corked as the rest, it still wasn't vertical. Appreciate it for what it is kids! The majority of you can't even do one cork, Wacko for president

Since when do 4 spins count as quad?


I kinda agree last rotation isn't a proper cork.. Amazing trick but not a proper quad cork in my opinion .

With all due respect, if your feet go over your head in in a cork then it isn't a cork. A cork is a backwards off axis spin, not a flip. It's what seperates a cork from a Dspin and a bio from a misty. That said, I agree that the last rotation was only slightly corked.
