Carve to flip


Neil Gendzwill

Recommended Posts

At the very least, this looks like a fabulous way to break or damage a board, or break a lower leg assembly. I'm glad the rider pulled the flip. With softies, there would be more give and go to the lower leg. With 'hards', I wonder what would have happened to the fibula and tibia above the cuff of the boot? OTOH, it's smooth and painless to this rider. Sick stuff, that. Makes me smile, too.

I have absolutely done this by accident.  Mine went for 1.5 flips and a head first landing.

Oh yeah me too!  I remember pretty vividly too...

Was just starting to get the feel for higher speed carves...next thing I know is I'm flying through the air xD

 

But hey if you aren't crashing you aren't learning right?
