Double backflip off a boardwalk jump, does she count despite getting swallowed by the powder?

I'd say count it, but my record with dubs is dodgy at best.

Thanks guys! I've tried it several times over a few years now and always been off by just a bit. One I backslapped but I don't count it. This one I felt really solid on the landing for the first time but that landing area is actually dog shit

Also I'm pretty sure a double pits to chesty to nipple would have propelled you to triple. Send it, it will probably work.

Counts when you're hiking a backcountry jump cuz you want to stop soon anyway, wouldn't count if you were rippin a resort lap

Doesn’t count but you can definitely double. Hope that makes sense.

Yee I wish I had positioned the jump in a better way to make it more poppy. I wanted to try other dubs but the jump was so flat that I never even did a cork 7.

That’s a make. If you edit that properly no one would know you went for a swim at the end there’s plenty of ride away
