I see tons of flips, spins, but never lincoln loops. I don’t get why more people don’t do them, they look sick af and aren’t crazy hard to learn.

31yo dad here, lincoln loop was the best trick in my quiver 15 years ago. backs/fronts etc are a common trick at the core ski spots but the lincoln would always get a riot due to its unnatural looking motion.

They are harder, plus people don't see them often so they don't think of trying them. Maybe I'll try to learn one just for you

Good thread. Side question does anyone learn flips on snowblades into pow first?

Loops are really hard to set and tough to control. Its my favority niched trick. You dont see it too often.
