Is it possible? If it is who's done one? And anyone have an edit with one in it?

I'm having a hard time visualizing it, and I don't think it's possible.. prove me wrong
 
I can't embed since I can't watch youtube at work... somehow i was able to watch it on TC's website though..

Anyway if you're reffering to 2:25.. is that not a switch flat 3?

I did use the search bar, and all I found was someone referring to B&E Episode 3 - Reunited. Annnnd I saw nothing of a cork 3 in that edit
 
Don't you see how that's a perfect example of a text book switch flat 3? A dope trick nonetheless.. but not cork. If he were to throw that trick exactly how he did, but going forward.. it would be a flat 3. Just think about how you throw a cork, this video is not that.

I really don't think cork 3's are possible, but I want to be proven wrong.
 
think of it like a normal cork 3 except when you carve, your back will be face down. thens its just like yom wallisch
 
the trick thrown in TC is thrown just like this vid.. but less inverted. I don't see how that's corked at all. Think about throwing a switch cork 7, you're not going to throw it like that at all.

16:10...or better yet watch the whole thing (still my favorite movie to this day)
 
Dope movie no doubt. But I'm sorry, I just can't see how people call that trick a cork 3. Everyone keeps saying that's a cork 3, but it just isn't. The TC edit I embedded is the same trick. Actually, the first trick in the edit B-WASS posted is closest, but still not it. On cork 3's, you're spinning around the tips of your skis while the tips of your skis are pointing toward the ground.

Picture throwing this (1:21) but thrown from goin switch... it's not going to look what you posted, or what anyone else posted on this thread.

1:21 - cork 3... envision that being thrown switch

There are many different "cork 3s" obviously you're not gonna be able to do a delorme cork 3 switch because the whole reason it works is how his body moves. In idea, thats the most legit switch cork 3 that has ever been done, period.
 
the closest i have ever seen was pollard in en route departure, but that was more a switch lincoln. anyone who claims switch flat 3 is most likely doing a switch whackflip.
 
im pretty sure b-wass was saying it was close to a sw flat 3. and since its now switch you would be spinning around the tails of your skis like all of the videos are showing
 
This thread is stupid because op is ignorant... also for the switch flat would it be thrown forward (like video above) or backwards (kinda like a switch back) i have seen both and both called flat.
 
it would be forwards because all switch tricks are still the same way coming off the jump if you know what i mean, like a switch rodeo is thrown down, so it would make more sense if the sw flat was thrown down like in the vid above
