Double misttyy 1440?

it might've been posted already, really amazing though, and those pocket rockets are hella rockered out!

anyone know who it is?
 
old but amazing. i think if anyone landed one of those today it would be sick. i dont see much misty anymore
 
Yeah, one of the Schrab brothers at the Windlip at Whistler around 2001 I believe. He landed way backseat and broke his skis trying to land that.
 
whatever happened to the schrab brothers... they were pretty crazy, knida like the collins brothers..... i wonder what happened to them
 
you talking about the blacktape joint? i think i still own that...world skiboard slopestyle comp...iannick b was in that shit as well...i think my favorite was the skiboard races they had going...INTENSE
 
that had to be the gayest thing i've ever seen!

i've been pretty dormant about this shit but i'm gonna come right out and say it:

All this double flip shit is nothing but sloppy arial skiing. For the love of god, the whole newschool movement started because people wanted to get away from the old mogul and arial disciplines and not it's all going back! I can remember when people used to give shit to anyone who thought the riskyflip (d-spin to backflip) was cool. Seriously, snowboarders don't do gay ass double flips so why the fuck are skiers doing it? It's doesn't even look good!

 
oh boy they do...

David throws double cork14´s, Travis double back to fakie and I´ve seen boarders doing double fronts and even triple backs
 
you are so wrong

watch jp walker, danny davis, david benedek, travis rice... all the most influent snowboarders out there are doing double flips/corks. I even saw some japanese guys try a triple backflip at the nippon open this year!

dubs are the shit
 
Dude balls and technic are just as important as style. I dont want to see comps with only smooth 360s. I want to see comps with some smooth moves and some gnarly shit like double flips
 
then where else should the sport progress?

The only ohter direction is more spinning- hence spin to win which we all agre is ghey.  And don't say that people can just do steezy fives forever cause that's not progression.  People always want to leanr new tricks and (in my opinion) double flips are a nice blend or style (when done right) and technicality.
