What do you think was the most impressive, progressive trick?

Considering the degree of dificulty, and consquences behind it, the 360 Flip, invert, what Milita Flip, Cork3. whatever you want to call it in Moto X

i was wathing skateboard vert and some of them were actually performing grinds on the pole that sits at the top of the Halfpike

I was born on planet earth

a rotating ball where man comes first. it's been around, for a long long time

now it's time to watch it die.
 
I know that almost everyone hates rollerblading, but the flatspin 1080 by eito yasutoko was awesome

jibba jabba
 
i think the 360 thing deegan threw in the freestyle comp was sick, even though he didn't stick the landing.....but the one he threw in big air was just a slightly off axis backflip....still sick but not as impressive

i thought bestwicks flair tail whip in the pipe was dope though and also the backflip tailwhip in dirt jump

i liked the flat 3 in motoX and the flair whip. the flat 10 was cool, but it was fruitbooting

the 3 in mx was insane, and the flair opposite whip in the global was dope, dont know if he threw it again

When I watch X-games inline I know why everyone hates it. NONE of the good skaters are in it and they make it look queer, especially vert.

360 was inovative, but what really looked sweet in the motoX was nate adams backflip heelclicker to no hand lander..that takes balls becasue its an invert to no hand land...the 3 was nice, but bailing wouldnt be as bad as opposed to what nate did.

bmx, the superflip (backflip superman seatgrab). that was an eye opener, sure he didn't fully extend the superman seatgrab, but seeing that inverted was awsome.

skate, shawn white in the pipe was sweet to watch. he incorerated his snowboard style into his flip tricks...i thought he did very well

freestyler525 ->i had to admit that was pretty funny
 
yeah i loved nate adams backflip heelclicker to no handed lander. deagans 360 was sick too. did pastrana throw one too i didnt see it but i thought that i heard he did

 
Bucky lasek and bob burnquist's vert doubles,when Bob fingerfliped the board on thetop of the ramp and bucky landed on it. it was sick to watch

The moto x 3 for sure.. i dont know why some of yous have been saying other tricks, especially tricks like the flait wip in the vert, it was for sure sick but it wasnt as big of a progression as the 3 was

 
i'm going with cody on this one... the corked 3 or what ever for the moto x

.:l[Tyler]l:.

and don't rub your scrotum against a power outlet

 
that corked 3 was SO sick, but i was kinda disapointed this year. Last year they had the guy trying to do the double backflip, this one there wasnt very much new shit other then goin bigger then before.

'We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind, cause they dont dance, and if they dont dance they aint no friends of mine.
 
how bout that 13 year old winning gold in street? I know the other skaters werent skating up to par, and the judges were biased, but it was kind of funny to watch a 13 year old get a gold

The wakeboarders switching up over the huge trap slider was pretty sick. Frontside on the up, gapping the 30ft flat, then baskside down the down...

 
mattman, know it off, your posts are stupid and really pointless.

and im gonna have to go with pastranas 360, the one that he landed, that was really amazing, considering how much that bike weighs

i think it was nyquist's backflip-tailwip-360-xup

in moto x it was the 360 by pastrana when he stuck it, in dirt bmx it was probably aaron mcgoverns double back, or nyquists x up one handed back flip

the cork3 by both deegan and pastrina, but the tail whip attampt by mirra was pretty huge...if he landed it. he took it pretty hard, same with the bar spin whip. the finger flip on skateboard double was pretty nice. i am hoping to see mountain bike dj or street in the future Xgames.

best trick probally was the flat three in moto-x; but the best performance definatly goes to Ryan Sheckler who won skate street. god damn he's only 13 and he is super clean, huge kickflips and i super nice frontside flip

It is impossible to do an on axis 3 on a 200+ pound dirt bike, both the backflip and mulitia twist or whatever utilize the momentum gained by the take off. The bike has no momentum to pull a 360 on axis. The only way they do it on bike's is that the bikes way a little bit more then 20 pounds. It's like try to do a 360 on 200lbs. skis.
