That was in Not Another Ski Movie. This time, there is no catch. He does it on a table, at Breck I think.

this is going to turn into a debate about what is/isn't corked, but unless your feet are above your head, its not corked, just incredibly off axis..

cork is when your feet dont go over your head. d-spin however is when they do

What is your definition? Have you seen it? To me, it looks just like any other cork, so I don't see why it shouldn't be.

have u seen skimatic yet, lolo does a Completely flat cork 180. absolutely no other way to describe it. totally smooth stomped straight up and down. no way to even argue against it, after you have seen it

i agree with u...i wouldnt consider anything a cork unless they are actually spinning like corkscrew and coming out of it in the rotation....but i dont doubt that lolo favre was off axis

dude this isnt fis or something, a trick doesnt have to be classified a certain way. an off axis 180 is a corked 180.

I have heard all about this. I heard he carved into the lip and everything. So basically I am pumped on this shit.

i don't really care if it's cork or off axis, i think it should still be referred to as a corked 180, and thats what im gonna do

i think we should just call every spin that you go off axis and not inverted CORK. wow would rhat save confusion. but tehre would just be differnt ways of doing corks

When does Favre do a cork 1 in NASM? I have NASM and I've seen it countless times and I do not recall any cork 1's.

i don't know if i would consider that a corked 180, but its a step in the right direction.
if you want to see a real corked 180 go watch eric messier in one love. its a snowboarder, but same concept.

so, is a d-7 a cork 7? a rodeo 7 would also be a cork 7 then, right? because, youre saying anything off axis is cork.
youre a moron. you have to have trick classifications, otherwise no one knows what theyre talking about, ever, like you are now.

it looks like hes gonna do a cork 3...CORK 3, making it corked, and then hen stops at 180....so ill

woah bro chill with that quick.
all he is saying that, why take credit away from Lolo even if it wasnt fully corked? maybe it wasnt a FULL cork, like a cork 3 or higher, but it doesnt mean it wasnt very off axis. since there arent many other off-axis 180 classifications other than cork, cork technically is the correct label.
your argument is kinda irrelavant. with spins as big as 7, its easier to classify and tell the difference between the axes. as for a 180, Lolo spun it on the direction of cork, so its classified as a cork 180.
you can send me a check for being smart. 100$ skrilla will be fine.

no, but an off axis 180 is a cork 180 if the feet lead the rotation.
plus you are even more of a retard because d-spins and rodeos aren't off axis, they are inverts.

yeah im going to have to agree....its a cork 180
heres my thinking...cosco is exactly right, he sets a cork 3, then somehow just drops out of it into a 180.....its exactly half a cork 3....cork 180

no he is saying that all of those are off-axis which they are. now if you break it down another step then you get into d-spin, corked, flatspin, etc. the definition of an axis is an imaginary line that passes through a geometric solid especially in through its greatest length. so by definition if your leaning at all your off axis.
the difference between corked, d-spin, etc is the way you spin off the lip. corked-you throw your leading shoulder back and down and your follow shoulder forward and up
d-spin throw your following shoulder down.
blah blah blah you get the point. hes not a moron. you are
