Did Jesper just do some sort of pretzel with a double?

Would be nice to see the shot from the knuckle, but it looks like he just opened up after the first flip and went into a backflip/underflip 180 and turned his body the other way.

Camera is on his head so it really doesn't help gauge it. Wish they'd show a shot from the knuckle. Mysterious

I thought it was a pretzel too, but someone in the comments said it was a switch dub 7 and I remembered he did that in a recent edit when he was practising on blades. You can see the switch dub 7 rotation (0:41) which he does looks like the same rotation he did on skis.

That is probably what it was. GoPros can give out some interesting footage of certain rotations.

If it really was a pretzel.. would they be hiding the shot? Probably not..

-emile-how is that a switch dub 7 ?


I think its because he took off switch, had 720 degrees of rotation, and had two flips mixed in.

Guys, do you call 2 pretzel 2s "zeroes?" No, it doesn't cancel out, the whole point of a pretzel is that a person spins in two different directions and it's tough to stop your momentum

Like I get why you'd say that that should be called a 7 but it's not. Or maybe it is. Idk but this trick is fuckin wild

I think if you were a little less mentally impaired, less adhd, more capable of thinking on your own and took the time to look at the trick you would be able to discern the 2 flips that constitute this trick.

first you see a switch left rodeo 5 (0:41 to 0:43)
and then if you pause the trick when he's upright and facing forward at 0:43,
you can see a left underflip 5. (0:43-0:45)

now if you know anything about basic maths, you can breakdown the trick as such :
he takes off switch,
he then does a left 540 rotation in one flip into another left 540 flip.
540 + 540 = 1080

which makes this a switch dub 10.


nice try though !

right, follow his feet. here are where his feet/skis are pointing at the end of the first flip-- he's facing the landing and has completed a switch left 5. then after this screen grab he does a right 5. seems pretty clear to me

Was referring to then switch dub 7 he did on blades not to the mystery trick.
