Ridiculous

Are you guys just setting the rotation of the lip and countering it to make it look late or do physics just not apply to some people.

Your upper body completes the rotation first and your lower body follows. Also, physics don’t apply to me because I’m awesome.

If you look at his skis his edges are engaged such that they push him left. Then yeah, he counters it with his upper body on the lip then has to really twist his way around to catch up in the air

It's the exact same as aerial skiers who go off the jump perfectly square to it then use their arms and upperbody to set spins.

Easiest way to pull off the late spin illusion is just lead the spin one way with your shoulders and shifty the other way with your legs, then throw the shifty back the other way to complete the spin with your hips.

it’s not a “real” late spin but kids watching from the chairlift will probably say “damn that dude just did a late spin” so it’s good enough.

That’s what I normally see from late spins but in this clip he doesn’t even move coming of the lip I’m stumped. It’s honestly kinda like a magic trick
