there was someone who 180 to switch 5ed air jordan a couple weeks ago, anyone know who it is? i was thinking pollard is one of the few to have those types of skills. whoever it is, it's just a preview for the mini golf comp thing k2s putting on.
 
That would be sooo gnar. a double stager cliff? 180 then switch 5 off the second.

I vote for Pollard and Pep for Mini Golf winners. both incredibly amazing in small tech areas and landing switch in the pow pow.
 
uhhh i get the 180 to switch 5 but i duno wut the air jordan means....thanx for all the help tho...next time just dont say ne thing pleaseeee
 
well ait jordan is a double stage cliff and thats already been explained, and you asked what he did, not what he did it on.
 
I've been at the top of it but never hit it

its in whistler blakcomb

its huge

i might be hard to swich spin cuz inbetween its steep and has no lip

in "the front line" someone does a straight to 3 but yardsales
 
thats crazy. does anyone have a picture of what air jordan looks like? im picturing it in my head, but i wanna see it for sure
 
i thought it meant pollard got sponsered by Jordan Sneakers like had to rock them when the ski boots came off lol
 
Air Jordan is a highly visable double stager at Whistler, word is someone also dropped it all at once this winter, talk about sending it.
 
Word is a lie.

Nobody hit it full up.. conditions were good this year but not that good. As far as the 180 to sw five.. I have serious doubts as I was filming in that area on the last few days it was even possible to hit and it most certainly wasn't done in that manner..

However the waterfall was spun and someone did a far sicker line beside Jordan on that same day.

a near seventy footer through the trees.

as far as size.. Jordan is about 25 on the first hit and with the speed you carry about forty on the second.
 
Here is a webcam pic of it.

I am pretty sure it is 30 foot drop to 50 foot drop.

I'm sorry, but Pollard isn't just anyone either...If conditions were perfect it could have def. been done, whether it was or not, I have no idea.
 
I don't think you could land the first drop switch it's too steep, I mean it's physically possible but would be very hard, not to mention trying to air the second drop, it's not like a nice flat take off pad like you see people use for switch takeoffs in movies.
 
This whole thing is Suspect. Pollard's not even that good I don't know why everyone gives him props for shit that pretty much everybody else already does. Pollard get a real Job.
 
why couldn't you just cruise off the second drop switch? hauling ass of course, and spin a composed 5? It's only 40 feet...If you had the skill (most importantly) and the courage, which Pollard fits the bill perfect, it could def. be done. I wish we had proof either way, cause if it was done it would be a huge feat in the freeskiing community.
 
Come on man. Pollard had progressed our sport immensely. He started the whole "lazy" style, he was one of the first guys landing switch in pow, and he is now slaying bigs peaks all around the world in a way that few people are. Show respect from where it is due.
 
shut the fuck up dude

pollard is the best freerider out there

nobody else is as good as he is at freeriding
 
i dont know, you would drop 40 feet awefully fast to get a switch five in there, maybe if there was some kind of takeoff at all then mayyyyybe, still would be hard to believe
 
Yeah that is totally doable, firstly to the person who said its too steep for a switch landing, the steeper the better in the BC mang. Andyeah a switch 5 wouldn't be hard to rotate fast enough of a 40 footer. The whole thing is totally do able.
 
^ shit i am not sure, i think the cab 5 off the second is easily doable, but to maintain balance and composure landing that switch is damn risky considering you don't have that much room if you land a little silly
 
I agree fully...going for a 1 off the first of a double is highly risket and MUST be stuck...hence the reason it would take brass balls to attempt it...but sooner or later, if pollard didn't do it already, someone will...
 
i heerd bout waterfall wen i was ther but wer is it

its the same face that jordans on right

how big is it

is it in the pic?
