Is this a trick? Does anyone have a vid clip of someone throwing it? I think it would be pretty sick to see someone float one of those off a 40 footer.
OP theyre called switch misty 5s and you don't see them very often at all which is a shame cause theyre dooope
This is what always confuses me about ski trick naming. The vid Taco posted looks like a distinctly different trick than in the 2nd video.
Someone told me the other day a switch misty 5 is actually a switch rodeo. If you can have a normal misty and normal rodeo why can't you have a switch misty and switch rodeo?
Is a backflip barani the name of the forward version? If so why wouldn't throwing it switch just be called a switch backflip barani?
Either way - the tricks looks tight. I'm just trying to get a switch back on lock first.

well imo lots of trick naming is total hair splitting, for example when people say overflip, which is just a certain style of misty pretty much in my opinion (underflips are their own unique trick though)
a switch misty is not a switch rodeo-- switch rodeos are the trick tanner won all kinds of contests with back in the day, check those out for a good example of switch rodeos (7)
switch misties we see plenty, usually as a 9 or 10. every now and then as a 7, and as said, very rarely as a 5, probably just cause it's sorta weird and blind
backflip barani isnt the name of anything, that was just a portmanteau on the OP's part really. barani is what gymnasts call a misty pretty much so he's not far off, but backflips have nothing to do with baranis
the trick in question is a switch misty 5 (though people are of course free to call their variations whatever they want) and youre right, none of this naming stuff matters, it looks dope is what's important. i might try one this year.....on a tiny jump

Yeah, in keeping consistent with naming should have just been called 'switch barani'.
guys much confusion here, so ill add my two cents: barani is a gymnastic term (been doing aerials style tramp for a while so I here it all the time) for a front flip 180. Well not really cos what you really do is start a front flip and which a swing of your arm at the middle of your flip you pretz 180.
here's one:
Very similarly you can do a back barani which is a backflip 180.
I've been trying to explain to my coach mistys and rodeos for a long time and he he never gets the way you can throw off axis (which for aerial jumpers is impossible, only a vertical and horizontal axis). But nonetheless they are completely different rotations.
I'd say the one in the first edit is a back barani, but Hatveit's isn't, simply cos he ends up spinning more than 180°. Anyways, just wanted to add in, since it took me a really long time to understand the difference between rodeos and backflip 180...
