Double corks with non safety grabs (yeah haldor!)

backside spins off the heels on big jumps

.

I was gonna say both of those too. I'd even like to see more single corks again. Especially single cork 5 with no grab.

Also more Japan Airs in corked spins. I think Jake Blauvelt does one in his Backcountry series in the park episode, and i remember thinking that is one of the coolest tricks ever

as much as people rave about all the new cork variations im going to go against that. i personally dont like the look of them, i mean sure they would be hard as **** do but i prefer smooth, flowing tricks more than tornado styles spinning and flipping like your having an epilectic fit.

my alltime fav move to see is a long,drawn out backside 180. hands down the coolest looking move. Japan airs also are up there,

like that vid above of seb toots, sure kid has balls but it looks shit IMHO.

but thats just my $0.02

I much prefere Single Corks ( so much more style) > Double > Triples (not a fan at all. Think its amazing that they can do it, but not wat i like to see)

I agree with ya completely deano!!!!

eg While Travis Parker can definitely spin, the majority of his repertoire is fun less complicated tricks, that look sweet!!!!! Much better to watch IMHO!!!!!

Even this latest offering from Boardworld!!!!!

The best tricks are the Simplest ones!!!!! And their own interpretations of STYLE that they add is what makes it all so much better to watch!!!!!
