I admit that I could NEVER do that and that is looks absurdly sick. However, when you analyze it, it isn't that amazing. If you watch it, he is just doing a rodeo 7 with a short slide on the rail in the middle. I think it is very creative and again, makes me vomit watching, but don't think the tricks you see in videos are un-doable or that the guys doing them are gods. That said, I can't wait to get the movie, I have purchased L1P for 3 years straight, going to make it four
 
well rodeo450 to rail is pretty dasmn sick, cant beliewve he never traveledf sideway doing a rodeo off suh a small jump.

swo sick wait till you see the 810...
 
i can see how he would do....its a sick trick. and its mooth for the flatpsin park. atleast its not an 810 or 990. if you can do flat 3s and 5s then you can see where it wouldnt be very hard except fo ryou need the right setup
 
i would agree.... except he then proceeded to 270 out of the rail which showed he had some control of himself while on the rail. it wasnt just a cork 810 to rail tap.

and the title of the thread is misleading... you didnt break down anything.
 
i think your completely wrong, if that was a flat/rodeo 7 with a rail slide after 450 then he would have slid it on his stomach, because he wouldn't be upright, he did a flat 450 to rail slide to 270 off, there was no way that was even close to a flat/rodeo 7 with a slide in the middle flat 450s are completely different than flat 7s, and in my opinion much harder
 
yea i agree...you throw a flat 7 different from a flat 3 or flat 5. if he threw it like a flat 7 with a rail inbetween he would be off axis. its clearly how you do a flat 3 or 5.
 
yeah its def not a flat 7 with a rail in the middle.

the thing that blew my mind about corey's trick was the 270 out, as someone said it showed he was in control on the rail and not just flipping into a rail tap at the end.
 
of course he had control. He does a rodeo different that you do perhaps. If you take the rail out of the equation you can see that he did the initial part of a rodeo 5 and simply landed on the rail. Yes, he had excellent control, but it was all part of a rodeo 7. As for the breakdown, I simply meant that people are all like "oooohh, 450 to 270" when it is really all one trick, separated by a rail. That is my point.
 
i see your point... but you dont see many people doing rodeo 7's with a complete stop in the middle of it so either way its very progressive and gains alot of respekt from me atleast
 
there is a guy i film with that can do rodeo to rail 270 off like its nothing...they look incredibly hard but in reality i dont think they are

it was insane...he was spinning soooo perfect, time after time....hit the rail every time
 
I always like to look at tricks like this. Pros are not superhuman. Not saying I can do every trick a pro can do, but with the right set up, technical adeptness, and balls, any trick is possible.

That said, I did try a rodeo 450 off the big tall wooden rail at Mammoth yesterday and it resulted in a slight concussion and bloody nose. I'll get the video to you guys once I get it from Doug Carr.
 
No, there is a difference. Most of the time when you see a big spin or flip to rail, the person barely touches the rail or is way out of control. If you watch the shot of Corey again, the rodeo/flat 450 is almost floaty, the rail landing is perfect, and then he pops the quick 270. If you're saying that the 450 would have made him 270 off even if he wasn't trying, I think that's wrong.
 
he was spinning, then completly locking onto the rail. Trust me I was there, it was not one continues trick.....he was doin it without the 270 and was actually sliding the rail

when you get shots like this lemme know....
 
I believe that some people are still missing the fact that I said it was super sick and I could never do it. Don't act like I was insulting the kid, because clearly he is phenomenal.
 
use sarcasm tags, its the way to go. example= [sarcasm]that trick is easy i bet sketchline could do that[/sarcasm]
 
Yeah thast the thing. He could be landing on it and just taping it, but the fact that he spun out of it makes the degree of awesom-ness that much higher.
 
i think if i was going to flip and spin then land on a piece of very hard steel i would wear a helmet
 
i think what most people are missing is the japan grab. even if there wasnt a rail it is sick, but yes, oh my, it is sick with rail and control.

but the set-up, damn its like screaming sick stuff.
