Triple Flips?

swarbrim · May 19, 2006, 12:22pm

Is it much easier on a lip? I would love to get a triple, I am holding my doubts though.

Well one can kick it faster on lip "physics"ly speaking yes. Not really easier though since the landing can be weird. but yeah. lol

p.s. Go for trips by all means, it’s kinda tricky, what you ahve to learn is riding really slowly jump kick dubs and land solid, without riding anywhere. Just like to stall. That will help triples.

Im pretty sure thats right.

If it doesnt rain ill get the double this weekend (hopefully). Ill be trying it off of 1 pallet.

are there vids of someone doing a triple? ive never seen it done.

trials_uni · May 19, 2006, 5:55pm

I think there may be one in Shauns “Macht Nada Vid” trailer. na di f not there then i dont kno.

its in the syko vid… the one that annouced the sponsership of shuan by syko productions…

trials_uni · May 19, 2006, 6:31pm

I doubt this…Shaun has been sponsered by SYKO for a while( I think) and hes only been doing double since around thanksgiving(Also i think).

But assuming your right…Where can i find this video?

Its a double not a triple in shauns syko vid. I learnt 1.5 flips on flat couple of days ago, i think im pretty close to doubles, i could probably do them off a tiny drop or on a lip

Nope, sorry.

unifreak7 · May 20, 2006, 8:39am

Excuse me. It’s put in slow motion for a reason. It goes around three times. By the time i just get my foot off the pedal from kicking it it’s all ready around once. Then goes two more. It is three.

I’m not sure if i’ll have a triple in the vid, cause i want to release the vid today, and start filming for a littler video for everyone when school gets out. (which should have a triple). This footage has all aged about 3 weeks withno new footy and i just want to get it off my hands. So it should be out today.

I landed a backflip today! It wasnt really that hard, I dont really think its off topic because this thread has already changed subjects. I love crankflip related threads!

Sorry man. It was so fast i coulden’t tell, i just assumed it was a double.

unifreak7 · May 20, 2006, 3:44pm

It’s cool, sorry about my reply. Nicely done with the backflip.

Lucas1wheel · May 21, 2006, 1:41pm
