Front Flip or Link and Loop

[cfgunnell]

Which is a more sick trick, which is easier to throw, and which is easier to learn. My buddy and I have this debate i say its a link and loop but what do you say?

 

[RudyGarmisch]

Link will only win after playing the dawn song on the Ocarina in front of the secret entrance to the castle.

 

[SDrvpr]

i find linkins alot easier than frontflips

 

[cfgunnell]

PS...this is all back country, not park... if that changes your answer

 

[Armanzoid]

Rowen for king of NS.

link and loop? lol

 

[SirFryanator]

bahahahah

fo real fo real, lincolns are a lot harder than fronts for me, but that's because im just fat

 

[J-Wallz]

rowen you are the best

link and loop hahaha

 

[vincepru]

ive never done a lincoln loop before, only fronts. i never understood how to do a LL

 

[james44]

front flips are super easy and link and loops arnt much harder

 

[cfgunnell]

Sweet, so far i was ahead until the last couple posts. I thought that front flips would be harder as you do have a blind spot. I have only done Backflips, never LL or fronts, so we were trying to decide what is easiest.

 

[J-Wallz]

there both easy IMO

 

[CraigAK]

true, but it depends on the feature and size. i think a front off a 30+ footer is easier than a lincoln in most situations. depends on the take off tho. lincolns are sometimes easier on other features, your argument is pointless with your friend, because it totally depends on the person and the feature. saying "backcountry" dosent describe the feature.

your joking makes Eddie Lincoln roll over in his grave

I've never skiied backcountry but they probably are bout the same as they are in park. Just remember when your throwing a linkin not to make it a flat 3.

 

[Big5hifty]

id defiantly get on a tramp and get them down there before hittin up the backcountry

 

[MarkieR]

I loved lincoln logs when I was younger, haven't seen them around in a while though, good luck.

 

[cfgunnell]

Thanks for the advice, when i say back country i mean natural features

 

[Mr.Huck]

Yeah, when I was a kid, I liked to play with Link and Logs.

 

[thejackal1177]

lincolns off little shit with alot of pop, fronts off flat takeoff's

 

[Rockhound]

i smell a new epic thread

 

[SPHCillionaire]

man it took me forever to muster up the balls to throw a lincoln, id say frontflip

 

[.peter]

If by Link and Loop you mean Lincon Loop then I'd say they're both pretty cool even if none really does lincon loops anymore.
If you didn't mean lincon loop then I have no idea what you're talking about

 

[Wall_Nut]

You should probably continue digging the hole you started.....lemme know when you get to 6 feet.

 

[cfgunnell]

HUH...

 

[Malcolm]

link and loop lol

 

[cfgunnell]

Ahh...its all one of the same, just depends if your from the east or the west! ha ha

 

[treebeard]

...really?

 

[FREEskiLINE]

What is this link and loop you speak of?... Did someone invent a new double?

p.s. - its lincoln loop not link and loop

 

[schillz33]

Lincolns are sicker because they are harder. I don't even fully understand how to do a lincoln, can't throw hard enough sideways I guess

 

[I_Am_Mod]

First !

 

[holyDINOSAURS]

hahahahaha

 

[ChristianJames]

i think front flips are easier, well at least for me because it takes less commitment. lincolns are harder but a lot sicker.

 

[TheHamburglar]

rink and roop!

 

[lifewithstyle]

Link and loop, haha

 

[JOHNishi]

it's crazy how the trick was named more than 50 years ago and yet people still dont know how to spell it...

(sigh)eddie lincoln is my hero btw

 

[fk.ths.noys]

I linked and looped for my first invert. If you can link your loops on a trampoline it's the same ish..and frontflips are for fags so why bother?

 

[silex]

haha and

 

[p-fo]

i dont know how to do a link and loop. but i think fronts are probably easier

 

[chicken]

lincoln was my first flip, only becuase I could do it on the trampoline though. I never do them now they just end up being cork backs or flat 3's.
But I find lincolns easier I can not front flip to save my life.

 

[A.Matyjaszek]

gotta be poppin fronts off the knoll

 

[PhilboydStudge]

hahahahai can link my loops on the trampoline

 

[LjayCinema]

lold

 

[K_FRANK]

both are relativly easy inverts to learn deffinetly less scary in pow

 

[Jballz]

i think rinkin roops are easier off cliffs because you can spot the landing earlier.

 

[BigMeech621]

comments like these ruin the chances of an epic thread

 

[Totes_Magotes]

wait... weren't they called 'lincoln logs'?. or was i just lied to at a tender young age?

 

[cfgunnell]

No, your parents were just democrats and wanted you to become one also!ha ha

 

[PeterWojnar]

I think it's called an underflip or overflip. It depends if you link a left loop or right loop with your 180, I guess.
