On the jump lines at the end, I'd say most riders do a cork, a corky, and another cork, hell even Andri Spaghettli does a switch double misty 12, but who throws flats, rodeos and bios at high level competition?! (Besides Henrik ofc) but I don't think I've ever seen a single bio in a slope run.

But in modern day comps, I'd say a good 95% won't do a forward rotation

In modern comps 100% won't do a dinner roll or even a double twister spread. These new kids have gone soft. Scared to throw down the serious material. Fucking millennials

I think one of woodsy's triples in the olympics was a bio. Even if it wasn't a triple he def did one

I've seen quite a few double bios in comps...I know ABM does them. I know Noah Wallace has down single bio 10s in his runs before...single bios won't score well because they want dubs and triples. I've seen double flats as well (classic kangs essentially). Everyone does what the judges want, that's what comp skiing is about, and the judges want doubles, so you won't see rodeos (is double rodeo even really a thing??).
