Frostgun Invitational - Holy fucking shit... TRIPLE CORK! FOOTY INSIDE!

Omfg... I just saw the first ever triple corkthrown at the Frostgun Invitational here in Val Thorens.

The final was Elias Ambühl vs Russ Henshaw.

Two jumps down, still no winner (or that's what the judges claimed). Russ dropped first, triple cork 1440. Ambühl followed and did a switch double rodeo 1080 (I think...).

Needless to say Russ won, still, Elias did a good job. I only had my shitty p&s with me, but I managed to capture his trick.

It's without a doubt the coolest thing I've ever seen... So cool!

I've uploaded the clip to rapidshare, the link is here below. It's an .mst file so I can't upload it on youtube. Too bad. The footy is straight from my SD so no worries 'bout virusses.

OMFG...It's been 5 hours and I'm still just so stoked. Wanna ski so badly now...

Go, watch, now!

I was a bit skeptical about it myself at first but the judges claimed it was a triple and I can sorta feel the third...

I counted 14 and only saw dub cork, though I can understand why it looks like a triple. That last 7 is thrown off axis which looks kinda funky.

Why? So we can watch a switch rodeo instead of a cork? It's not related.

It looks like he was going for the triple but decided against it after the first cork.

So ugly.... Someone is going to get seriously injured before people realize its time to stop this trip and dub flip nonsense. I hope it doesn't come to someone getting hurt, but damn its not even fun to watch anymore.

Man this thread is crazy retarded, how could you possible EVER mistake that for a double? It's like mistaking a 180 for a cork 7.

That's unreal and clean.  That jump was huge too.  Seems like the conditions are going to have to be perfect and jump ginormous for him to set that down.
