A flatspin 3

[OG_pimp]

There is such thing as a flatspin 3 right? (trying to prove my friend wrong)

 

[corona]

flat 3 is one of tanners favourite pipe tricks isnt it?

 

[Ham.and.Cheese]

Im pretty Sure there isnt, i think its a rodeo but i could be wrong

 

[OG_pimp]

Sammy did it in a pow vid once right?

flat 3 on a trampoline

I think i might have been wrong but flat 3's to me look like rodeos or lincolns but they really are flat 3's

 

[Trojan~Man]

flat 3's for sure exist!!i know a buch of pl who do them..

 

[OG_pimp]

exactly. thanks

 

[dylanb]

i dont think this is a flatspin and even if it was it would be flat 5 not 3

Yeah there are flat 3's but most are just "rodeo 3's" or off axis backflip/loop. Here's a video of Mike Henitiuk throwing one of the most legit flat 3's out there, and it's in the moguls. The goal is to not go inverted, Henitiuk does a little, but if done right it's one of the toughest tricks out there.

That would be a misty 5.
But yeah "flat" 3's do exist, but they are mostly just rodeo 3s. They are halfway in between backflip and lincoln loop. Warnick does a pretty dank rodeo 3 in the 4bi9 gets aspen video. Check it out at 1:08

i believe sammy carlson does alot of them. it looks like a backflip but slightly of axis

 

[JonathonChandler]

agreed

 

[Uncle.Badness]

Flat 3s on tramps r easy but ive never tried them off a jump.

 

[_CC_]

they exist. i just cant brin git around unless i go for the 5

 

[ThunderousFilms]

how is it a five and if he was in a pipe it would be a flat 3 but right there it is a lincon

 

[dylanb]

the video isnt working right now but he does the lincoln and then another 180 after it which is 5

 

[JsNeagle]

yes flat 3s exist. they are sometimes mistaken with lincoln loops. but yes, they definitely exist.

colby does a textbook one in the JOSS edit

 

[Mr.Huck]

That is a lincoln 180. From the cam perspective the flip is thrown to the side. You just rotated

 

[TAFapparel]
