This is what it looks like at :58 not some stupid wackflip safety bullshit

the first shot of boville on the wallride? good try guy but thats a cork 3, his feet go out towards the landing at takeoff. pollard and casabon have mean flat 3s.
 
:58 kinda looked like a cork3 to me (stomach-down @ :59), but the laid back angle of the jump/roof thing makes it hard to tell... 2:58 on the other hand, magawd
 
That's the other example I always give to people who are too stupid to figure out the difference between flatspin and wackflip or rodeo
 
derp me all you want, he drops his left shoulder down and back, its a cork 3. it just looks different because its such a steep takeoff. on flat 3 you drop your right shoulder down and forward.
 
.58 a flat 3? No? You clearly see his face and torso pointing down , as in flat 3 he would be back against the ground. Its a cork 3, end of thread.
 
2:58 is a true flat 3, still a wee bit inverted but it's hard not to get atleast a little bit inverted. That first shot is not cork 3 though, its some sort of weird hybrid trick, hard to categorize
 
Its pretty inverted compared to that nimbus one. I would count it tough. you pretty much can do true flats just in powder and step ups with a flat landing, or your momentum would be all wrong and you would land backseat.
 
Agreed, probably the best flat 9 of all time was landed on a step up. I think it was Pollard but not sure where the video is
