The best dub 7 thus far

A year ago, Frej Johnsson unleashed an aerial maneuver which to this day makes no sense. Mathematicians have squandered over how such an axis can be set, and none have come to a conclusion. Since this is roughly around the one year anniversary of the first dub 7 thrown at JOI last year (plus or minus a couple of months), I thought it would be a good idea to reflect on all the dub 7s that have been thrown since. I also thought it was a good idea to reflect, because ski season is wrapping up and these are the type of threads that are created when one has nothing better to do. I have noticed recently off the charts butthurtedness in the ns community over what qualifies as a dub 7 and whose is the best and all that. So I thought I would make a thread to see which dub 7 you guys think is the best

Larsen
Beaulieu-Marchand

Frej is one of a kind, rest were alright but most have been barely wobbles.

imo they should be as close to inverted as possible on each cork 3

so.. tits

Yah... 2nd,3 should be just as inverted as the 1st one... for it to be a "True " Double cork 7

Still don't think Frej's counted as a dub cork 7. To me, it looks more like a flat 3 to cork 3, just like Emile Bergeron's recent dub 7 attempt.

that's a dub underflip on a hip. Certainly not a dub cork 7.

I'd say the Norwegian Max Larsen is the best one! But, don't look at this one:
https://www.newschoolers.com/watch/614447.0/Max-Larsen---Dub-Cork-7-?c=1
Look at his even newer edit (00.55 and a little out).
That's one sick fucking DUB 7

The hand drag dub cork 7 in downtofilm's edit was the coolest IMO. corks that are more spinny than flippy look wayyyy better.

Henrik's was the best because he did it first.

The second best was that "hand drag" one because he actually does a corked 3 before dipping into the second one, despite the flailing. Frej's was more flatspinny and that French Canadian's was def. a flat 3. Calling something corked when you're completely upside down is pretty damned stupid.

nah man, Frej's is nothing like a flatspin, truest dub cork 7 done yet.  flatspin is basically a back flip but set at 45 degree angle rather than 90 like a true back.

You're right, it's as dope as Henriks... but Henrik still wins for doing it first.

frej's was in april of 2012, at the END of the 2011-2012 season. Henrik's was in december at the BEGINNING of the 2012-2013 season. In his video it even says on vimeo "thanks to mammoth for putting up an incredible early season park" key word "early season". as in the beginning of the season.

nononono, that dub 7 on the mammoth jump was done after frejs, BUT he did a true dub cork 7 in the education of style, (not the shot of the dub flat blunt which is also nuts)
