What ever happened to the old D spin, like the infamous Chad's Gap Candide D 720 in 2000??

It's right here bubba




No, but really, I think they just got replaced by the cork 7. Cork 7s are safer and i guess a little easier to do and variate (I can't be the judge of that since I can't do either). D-spins still look super dope though, there's a 44 year old skier who still busts them out once a year and my jaw just drops.

Ive been throwing some back in 2011-2012 season. The trick is so much fun to do, its like combining a corked out start and finishing in a backflip.
 I found they are hard to grab and judges dont really like them because it resembles the cork 7 from the table.

People still do them all the time, they just get called corks because they look very similar.

The D-spin lived with the Dinner Roll, Skodeo Flip, and all the other trick names that shouldn't have really existed in the first place.

I love it, I've been corking my whole life but never thrown the D Spin. It looks sick, I might have to work on that

loved doing these. i think its still around depending on who is throwing a corked spin. most dub corks have the first 720 being a d-spin.
