last year jon olsen did a 180 after the second flip and land switch. in the freestyle.ch video he does the kangaroo flip with no 180 landing straight forward

I'm pretty sure they still call it a Kangaroo flip, but yeah, essentially it's just a double lincoln/flat three thing. WHo cares. It's two flips, grabbed, styled, and stomped, so it's legit. Fuck names.
 
it's sorta cool to see it one time, but skiporn had like 6+ shots of it... i hope it stays as a comp only trick... cool trick that i can't do, but not something i need to watch over and over
 
I'm going to go ahead and call it a double corked lincoln. Those lincolns are def. off axis lincolns. 
 
personally, i don't think the regular landed one isn't all that impressive. Maybe it's that lincolns aren't in style right now, but I don't really like the look of it. But the switch landed one, mmmmmm...beautiful.
 
The reason why he didn't do the kangaroo flip in the qualifications, was that he was going check what height he could reach.. Jacob did a double back to check the height, but learned the kangaroo right there.. never tried before..

And to all you wondering souls out there.. Jon DID a kangaroo WITH 180, but crashed
