Anyone ever seen someone do a backflip 360? As in, not a rodeo 7. Basically a sw takeoff, 180, backflip, 180. Kinda the opposite of a misty 7, which is more or less a frontflip 360.

So switch misty 7? If that's what you mean then yes, I'm pretty sure I've seen it done in videos.

"180, backflip, 180" is not the same thing as a backflip 360. But this is an interesting idea

Shane McConkey did a whole bunch switch back fulls back in 1999, as well as a few switch back 540s. It was during an experimental couple of years when guys were doing anything and everything to figure out what was possible; but they probably didn't catch on because once everyone realized this stuff could be done, then the emphasis went into style. And while Shane's switch back fulls were super smooth, they were probably seen as more of an aerialist trick.

Shoulda known Shane did it first. And I'm glad I wasn't crazy thinking it isn't a sw misty 7. I feel like the new gen of riders could bring this fucker back with some shifties and grabs. Might be sick
