Dub popularity back then...

[J.G.]

why is the doublecorks way more popular than dub flips?

I know they were both first really seen at JOI 2006 as comp tricks. But jacob wester and mike clarke (i think) were both doing doublecorks back then too. So its not like dub corks are a newer trick then why are they SO popular now and last year? And not back then when they were invented at the same time as the dub flips?

look at this video

mike clarke claimed he was one of the first to perform the dub cork......but mike wilson was out of his mind with the flips

Double corks are more technical than double flips. Same reason pretzels are more popular than regular rail slides.

 

[triebby]

Yes.

I think that varies person to person.
