read the comments below that WCS update and someone addresses this.  "the world just isn't ready for the flip up, so LJ requested photos only"  Sorry, I'm sure everyone is just as eager to see it as you are.  And LJ, please grace us with your permission to observe such ethereal rail skills on film.

not to take away from what mcmurray did or anything, but the box set-up at momentum was a up box gap to down box... with like a 15-20 ft gap. LJ did his flip up on a trap rail with 10 ft sections...

they are both hard, but LJ did it on a way tougher set-up imo

LJs was gnarlier, but not near as sick in my opinion

and again not to take away from what john did...but mcmurrays was a wayyyy bigger gap...and a few months prior to johns...both of them deserves props fe sho! but you also cant forget about eulers flip up a while back ...on skiboards! mcmurray rules, john rules, dave rules....and im sure martini and a few others has done something on that level of radness to date. shits crazy fe sho!

It was pretty ridiculous to watch. This is why people should come to WCS.

agreed... any flip off of a rail and then back onto one is quite an achievement..
