Jump tricks as rail tricks and vice versa

jump and rail tricks are somewhat comparable not in total rotations just how common they are or the vibe they give off I guess…

like I think a cork 7 is the 2 pretz 2 of jump skiing lol. It looks sick and it’s a classic staple.

I think cork 3 would be like nollie lip 2 on or something. Not that I know how to do jump tricks or anything but not a lot of skiers can do either of those and i feel like they’re both guarded by a big initial mental hurdle


throw your thoughts out I wanna hear what my fellow degenerates have to say on this fine Halloween-eve

Pep did the ol switch on front two all in the air. That was a classic. Having trouble finding it.

I feel like it’s a lesser common jump trick in other words like I don’t see it being whipped as much as cork 7 or rode 5

2 to fw and flat 3. Both are fairly "plain" tricks imo and often don't look that good, but look really nice when done well

I'm being a bit critical but I don't see the cork 3 - nollie lip 2 comparison. I've seen quite a few busted cork 3s but every nollie lip 2 I've seen has been stylish. Maybe cork 5 blunt - nollie lip 2

180 is sw to sw railslide.

Rode 5 is a kfed.

Rode 7 is nollie front 2.

Cork 5 is lip blind 2.

Cork 7 is 2 pretz 2.

Cork 9 is backswap to sw

Zero is nollie lip.

Disaster is a transfer gap.

Bc booter is urban handrail.

Bc tree tap is an urban wallride.

I is spending way too much time on this.

I like to think of the 2p2 and the cork 7 to be exact same level of difficulty, at least in my own experience
