first of all, is that how you spell it? and what exactly are they? are they what jon olson does a lot of in his seen of ski porn? i cant quite figure it out...a bit of help would be good!
 
nah jon is doing alot of kangaroo flips in ski porn thats probably what your thinking of...a lincoln loop is basically a barell roll on skis...all you do is just do a sideways flip, so instead throwing yourself forward or backward, you throw yourself left or right and yeah thats as much as i can explain about it...there fun as hell
 
a lincoln is like a forward facing cartwheel. you go off the jump, do a cartwheel while still facing forward the entire time, and regular.
 
Lincoln Loop

When you reach the lip of the jump, drop your shoulder and wind your arms up to the side so your body will flip sideways.

thats how i do it

 
haha this year I wanna do back to back lincolns one to the left the next to the right. That'd be so funny I think
 
or how bout a double lincoln loop hhahah i tried on one on the tramp couldnt quite get the rotation but i think i can definatly do it

 
yeah i've tried a couple of double lincolns on a tramp.. it always ended up with me eating shit though, its a lot different/harder than it seems.
 
^^^Yea just watch the over rotation slapin the water off a three meter with you ear hurts like a bitch, trust me
 
I love the lincoln still. I don't care if people are throwing switch 14s and wilson flips and kangaroos, I love the classics. Lincolns, big rodeo 5 criticals.. yesssss
 
i saw a guy jump at a tree off a jump did a quarter of a lincon, and then pussed off the tree (while he was already sideways in the air) and did the rest of the lincon, it was so sick, but i forget where i watched it
 
Lincoln loop is a mix between a backflip and a sideflip, you start it like a sideflip and you land it like a backflip, but everybody calls sideflips Lincoln loops, but they are in fact two different tricks.
 
no lincoln loops are sideflips, what you're thinking of is corked backflip, some people call it flat 3 although that's a pretty weak flat 3
 
okej, but that's the way jakob wester describes it and i figured he knows what he's talking about, but everybody calls it the same so it dosen't really matters to me, I just do them ;D
 
yeah if you wanna get technical, a lincoln is more than just a side flip. but i think splitting hairs when labeling ski tricks ais retarded so ill keep describing lincolns as side flips.

oh and as for doube lincolns, whenever i try to do a fast lincoln i end up spinning with it so a double would be very hard for me
 
how about doing a lincoln flip to the left and while still in the air do one to the right....if anyone could do that, oh shit, youd win the x game, tanner halls wouldnt stand a chance!!!!!
 
thats what i do when im on tramps, wheni tryed to fix it i did either a lincon 3 or a linocn 7 (im not sure if thats the right name of the trick i did) but just try to keep on looking at the tranny i think that may help
 
when u do a loop the bigest thing is to look fowerd the whole time or you cold end up doin a 90 in the middle of it and that could hurt but its not too hard if you just comit to them
 
i saw this guy do a half of a lincoln loop and a 80 ft table top and while he was half way around he paused and did a half back flip and came down switch it was the sickest thing in the world!
 
wow that took me a while to figure out what he did that when i did find out it seem sick and unreal, seems kinda like doing a 90-270
 
ya thats pretty much what it was thnx 4 the sweet explenation cuz i didnt know how 2 put it, it was pretty much like unreal it almost looked like he was defining the laws of gravity but it was all real and the sickest thing i have ever seen
 
haha pop, dip your shoulder and your head.

bam, lincoln loop 101.

and jon does that plus a 180. dare anyone to defy me.

seriously. thats all it is.
