Shin Whoot apparently has landed a triple cork in the pipe.

I could easily believe this. I vividly remember watching one of his runs at x last yr and on his last hit he did a dub 10 or something and came out of his 2nd cork a good 6ft still above the lip. Its def possible and will be done by someone within the next season if it hasnt already.

Fake because of hair, Fu Lin, no vid proof, and look at the picture in the article, it just looks fake.

a legit snowboard photographer would not have taken the shot at that angle. A good photographer would have wanted a background in the shot too, not just white. Also in all of his other photographs he made an effort to get a good background. So unless if there was no better background from that side of the pipe, then this was totally shopped. So if it is not fake, then I would be amazed.
