well....generally anyone who's spinning something big like a 630 or 810 on is at the level of skill and confidence that they just think "i can do this, i'll land it"

just look at candide, he throws cork 7's like they were 360's, when you reach that type of level of skill, you can pretty much try insane shit like that and expect to land it

only a few skiers realy comit to doing them good and put themeselves in real danger. others just do it as if it was a cork 7 but slide a few yards of the rail once they hit 630 degrees.
