so close
 
holy balls that was fast, but it was wicked well grabbed. i be a few snowboarders will get some landed at park shoots soon
 
i dont know if thats cool or gay...

seriously.. are kids gonna be tossin those next year cuase if so i might as well give up on life
 
I'd say Russ Henshaw came closer than that to stomping a triple cork two weeks ago, and off a way bigger jump (footage not out yet). Unfortunately he tweaked his neck and couldn't get another shot at it.
 
ah well even though he didn't land it, i bet boarders will claim first triple cork ever done even if skiers do it first... kind of like chads gap.
 
triples = how close you can come to the knuckle without hitting your head during your third flip
 
he did land it in another edit. its on the nitro road warriors video page. like the second most recent one posted, he stomps a triple cork. and this happened months ago. so snowboarders have had it on lock for a little while now.

 
I don't think anyone said skiers invented afterbang, and definitely didn't claim first tindy...tindy is an embarrassment.
 
Did not look like a triple cork. I could see how someone might look at that wobble around the last bit of that and think its triple but I am really not seeing it.
 
agreed. just really wobbly craziness. but at least he held the grab. I was trying to figure out what the guy above was mentioning, and this was my best shot.
 
turpin did a triple flat not triple corked but triple corked in that second vid... the last 360 wasnt even corked... still super sick though... huck fest anyone lol
 
Unfortunately, there actually has been a tindy thread on here before where skiers claimed it, as astounding as that sounds.
And every second kid on this site says skiers invented afterbang, most of them have never even heard of robot food.
 
In the youtube vid he clearly goes into 3 separate corks. Fucking retarded man, grabbed from start to finish too. And skiierman, of course snowboarders are gonna start claiming triple corks first, they're clearly doing them first.
 
youtube video was triple cork

vimeo was double with a weird bobble on the last 3

but at the end of the vimeo one... was that a switch double back 360? insane.
 
Yeah, but the difference is, the pro skiers, and skiing magazines won't claim we did any of that first. If a skier did a triple cork tomorrow and stomped it, and a snowboarder did one next year, transworld and other companies would still say that the snowboarder did the first triple cork on snow.
