540 Switch ups

[Age]

Has anyone seen a 540 switch up? It seems likely that someones done one but ive never seen one before. And given the fact that Cosco and Candide and Vanular are all uber retarded good on rails, it seems strange that we dont see more. Come to think of it, im surprised there hasnt been corked spins or inverts in a switch up......bail factor would be pretty big though.

 

[titsLOL]

corked switch up? you've been playing too much amped

 

[Age]

Yeah corked switch up isnt likely, but lincolns and 540s are at least somewhat possible?

 

[titsLOL]

yea 540s are quite possible, i reckon a 720 switch up was posted recently actually. and I recall seeing 540s posted here last season too.

 

[Silence]

i can picture a lincoln happening on a mean flat down

 

[KristianBratlie]

sammy does a 540 switch up in mind the gap

 

[JGP.]

i could picture one going huge into a up-flat-down or an up-gap-down

 

[ATLskier]

spriggs does a 540 sw up in corduroy.

 

[JArens]

in last years warren miller movie, sammy does a cork 5 switch up

 

[holyDINOSAURS]

i cant remember buddys name but in beyond the bunny hill he does one, that was the first one i saw.

tony siebert

Henry Yogeman.

annything more then a 360 switch up is ugly and sloppy so i think thats where skiing should put up the red light. unless its a big gap between rails...then a 5 might look cool

 

[Tinga]

good call. but my phone can do cork 10's and open and close all in one throw its pretty sick

 

[Treestman]

word, my phone does cork 9's and 10's, people make fun of me for doing pen and cell phone tricks, it is kinda retarded though

 

[snowboardersrule]

some kid at the echo last park standing comp did various 360 switch up with mute grabs, 540 switch up and a 720 switch up. it was pretty nasty. they were all blindside and super smooth. that kid is on an entirely different level

 

[T-KR3W]

haha thats my homie gus kenworthy....he threw a bs 360 swtch up on a hand rail yesterday... it was fucking baller.. better watchout for this kid hes gonna blow up

 

[DynastarriderGP]

[RedBaron882]

- tony siebert 270- 540 - 270 at 2:00

sammy's in mind the gap is money, it's off axis too, not a whole lot but just enough to make it look even sicker. It's on the same rail he does 360 switch up at the end of his segment in ski porn, don't know why PBP didn't get that shot

 

[Piste.Off]

wasnt it sammy who did cork 270 then pretzel 270 off?

 

[Holte]

there's a 720 switch up vid in the top rated videos. Can't remember who it was though.

 

[JArens]

ya i was wondering that to??

i saw the 540 and realized it was on the same rail, i donno why they didn't have that shot

 

[TimothyLord]

i think we should stop at 720 switchup. a 900 switch up would be absolutly retarded. unless you werent spinning like a top

 

[Holte]

ahh you beat me to it.

 

[juanborlando]

i heard tom wallish did a cork 7 sw up pretzle last weekend at brighton

 

[Tinga]

didnt like the 540 switch up. not going to lie

 

[skiP.E.I.]

the idea of doing more than a 360 switchup is to get good at it, so It won't look ugly and sloppy anymore. there should not be a red light really for any kind of progression in skiing tricks.

 

[freeskeemcghee]

phone and pencil tricks are the bomb

 

[zesty_buddy]

i could double bs flip

 

[bpalmer]

you clearly have never seen sammy carlson ski.

 

[JaphyRyder]

check out the top rated vids, theres tony's 540 swithc up and a720 swich up

 

[TheQuailman]

so true, I do it all the time

 

[edmonton_skier]

if its not a rail or if the bix its done on is suuper wide it mihgt as well not be done they look gay cuz its juts spiing like mad.. sammy's was veery legit

 

[SteveStepp]

Spriggs and Jeff Siebert

 

[Edward.]

some people did 720 switch ups at a rail jam in colorado towards the end of the season last season

 

[Kazabazua]

ive seen many people do them and it is a claim but i myself can do 540's, a guy has done a 720 switchup just look in top rated... i dont think it looks very good cause the rails or boxes? arent very high off the groud

 

[Peter.]

^^ see above video

 

[Klick_2_klaim]

stop doing switch ups!!!!

I cant, and it makes me sad when i see other people doing them.

 

[Jake...]

they mirrored that shot too and made it look like a 540 when really it was only a 180

 

[General_Shredgnar]

youd have to be going soo fast to do a cork switchup, like basically fly on the rail and drop a shoulder as you flew off. then gap like 30 feet to another rail. Sounds like a fun ol time. 

 

[Kazabazua]

yea man that shits pretty fuckin impossible, i was thinking a cork 3 switchup but it really wouldnt look good cause it would be so fast, then i was trying as lincoln switchup but that was also really fuckin hard and i would just keep sliding out and smashing my back on the trap box

 

[wintersway]

4bi9 hyphy 1.5 edit, i think its wallisch in the blue/black jacket that does a full 540 switch up at 2:30, right after the cork three off the rainbow box, its so sick

 

[Sun_Ra]

way to ressucitate an old thread to put Wallish in it
