Adam Delorme in Afterdark. Does a true nollie front off a 70+ft jump and just sends it absurdly deep.

Almost definitely, that was a real nollie, and off of a 70 foot jump, taking it to at least 100.

I think that was more of a tame dog, not a true nollie front. still looked cool though

Probably my favorite trick ever. Nothing is cooler than a super steezy ninja flip

I used to have problems with it and some random guy told me to "stand up more" and it was perfect advice (for me anyway). Basically commit to diving towards a point bout 6 inches past the lip, hop at the top of your butter(as you leave the jump/roller) and stay RIGID till you land because your trying to use the energy of your skis unflexing to push the flip around. If you try and tuck like a regular front you lose some of that pop and will land way backseat or rotate funky... hard to explain but here's mine from 2 weeks ago https://www.newschoolers.com/membervideo/672316.0/Nollie-Front---wolfcreek-11-12-13?s=210808&t=6&o=8

I dont really know if you can call it a nollie, becasue its the only way to really do a frontflip off a small jump of knuckle is by pressing your noses like crazy.

It's got nothing on Delorme's, but the first one that came to mind was Jossi's in that game of in your face with Tortsein. @ 4:16

did you really feel the need to say "dime" instead of "ten" or "bio ten"? But for real, Delorme went so hard in that movie, I wish he had done some superpark shit in partly cloudy :(

Delorme's for sure. None of the other ones in this thread are even nollie fronts

In the last weekend that my mountain was open I threw a frontflip off the knucle... but to me it doesn't look like a nollie frontflip because i didn't butter before the takeoff.

yeah you proved regular frontflips can be fast AND look bad. Nollie fronts are supposed to look good, your flip in that video was like watching a terrified mogul skier try one for the first time. Don't put your hands and poles way above your head for the takeoff when you do it, thats gonna be negative points... plus you backslapped

Not trying to be a dick but that "cliff drop" was horrendous. I would have left that one out
