i have always wondered of a flat 180 was possible. now before all the rage starts among butthurt NSers who think im referring to a flat 5 as a flat 1, please let me explain my concept, for it is quite simple.

first, you need two quarter-pipes set up one next to each other but facing opposite directions, like this:

next, all you need is a stick-figure who has the balls to guinea-pig this trick. all you do is throw a veeeery slow flat 3 and land switch in the second QP, like this:

and afterbang your way out of this. but film it.

that is it...so

tramps ≠ skiing. this would not work i think, feel like it would just be an underflip or something
 
i get it nowi guess i didn't register that you go up vertically, and that it's not the same as as a jump to landingthanks for giving me the confidence to see the light
 
Hahahahaha!

To Op, I think for this to work, your q-pipe would have to stop just shy

of vert. Otherwise the best you could hope for is to drop straight

onto your back on the deck of the landing q-pipe. Either that or the landing q-pipe would have to be slightly uphill from the take off. I also think you

would have to change underwear even if you skied it out. Dropping head first on your back would take a little while to get used to IMO.
 
couldnt be built like a quarter pipe though cause they just shoot u up....i see some injury coming from being the first to try it
 
yeah, i thought of the same thing. but it would be more like 1.5 flip thing :P

I'm pretty sure it can be done, but it would take a lot of tries, a lot..
 
ps, I dont know if this has been said in the thread yet, but in Meathead's Work it Out there was an urban that just like the one you described
 
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I haven't watched it don't tell me! I am watching it at home in an hour!
 
Hmm I could be wrong but wouldn't dumonts cork 3 in the Team America edit technically be a cork 270 since it was over a hip?
 
anyone know of the video like a month back that was posted where a kid did a flat 180 on a tramp? it was like a flat 360 pretzel 180 when he was in the air, i didnt believe it till i saw it
