I heard that Fuel had something about how parks blew his knee out on a triple flip. Does anybody know a link to watch it or know what video its on. My buddy said that he had it but his knees couldnt hold. He is the king of the DU.

not sure recently but a few years back he blew it out attempting a double half cab mobe ,IE a switch double backroll to 360 or something like that off the double up... <BR> <BR> <BR>hes out right now because of him having surgery on his knee to remove spurs and repair some loose cartilage and afterward he got some bad staff infection that put him down in a bad way..

I saw Fuel yesterday and they showed him attempting the triple but stacking it. Did a couple of nice doubles though. It was this week's 'Weekly Update' program which looks like it's going to be repeated at 5pm and 8pm (Mountain time) today, as well as throughout the week. Get to a tv! <BR> <BR>I posted about it yesterday: <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3184/324234.html?1147029795" target="_blank">http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/3184/324234.html?1147029795</a> <BR> <BR>Pete

i saw that tripple front on fuel. CRAZY!!! he needed like 2 more feet of air so that he could have spoted the landing better.

He did somthing crazy on "Counterfeit This" i havent seen it in a while but from what i remember it was a triple. Maybe it was just a double with big spin in it? Anybody know what i'm talking about? <BR>

blazin4life 05-07-2006 4:30 PM

garret_s 05-07-2006 4:30 PM

On the Fuel news segment on Parks last night, they did show a clip of a triple front flip attempt... however it was Darin's attempt that they showed, from the Double or Nothing contest in 2004. I haven't ever seen video of Parks getting close to a triple, though... but I'm sure he has.

I saw that segment Fuel did on Parks this past weekend. That clip of Darins triple attempt was HUGE! <BR>I scared the hell out of my dog when I let out a loud "OH MY GOD". He took off running. And my wife was in the kitchen like "WHAT WHAT WHAT". <BR>I'd seen clips of him trying them before, but nothing that big. <BR> <BR>Anyway, it was a great interview with Parks. Hopefully he can come back from all of this.

here's a video of the double with a 360 thrown in for good measure <BR> <BR><a href="http://photos.wakeboarder.com/showphoto.php?photo=583&amp;cat=509" target="_blank">http://photos.wakeboarder.com/showphoto.php?photo=583&amp;cat=509</a>

this is funny because i am watching fuel right now and they just showed the tripple as i opened this disscussion. the tripple was tight

Mike is 100% right. It was Darin attempting the triple, not Parks. <BR> <BR>Peace be the journey.

hyrific 05-10-2006 2:51 PM

Holy hell that double with a 3 in it is totally insane! He has an upside down handle pass in there.

wakeboarding mag had stills from Darin's triple front attempt in the D-up contest and I was amazed, seems like he got almost back to his board.

jwr 05-10-2006 5:43 PM

why do you think they wouldn't throw an awesome clip like that into counterfit this? It may not be the most artistic video ever, but a bad ass trick like that deserves to be in some videos

cwbabsolute1080 05-10-2006 5:54 PM

prob saving it for the Parks documentary
