Nick Davies lands Raley 7!
 
Nick Davies has landed the first Raley FS 7! I knew he was trying but I cant believe he actually got it, Gotta be one the craziest tricks ever to have gone down. No vid yet as far as I know but Im sure it wont be long

cheesydog 09-19-2010 6:39 PM

nevermind got the first vid, unfortunately not the best angle and the sun is in the way but u can still see it

You are awfully quick to label someone the best in the world based off one trick

fly135 09-20-2010 11:16 AM

One would have to wonder why you think it's because of one trick.

jarrod 09-20-2010 12:25 PM

One would have to agree with John.

andy_nintzel 09-20-2010 12:48 PM

+1 for Johns comment.

Ya I'm with Brian, Davies is so inconsistant with his riding, its probably just a fluke ;). So many hammers going down these days, gotta love wakeboarding.

texastbird 09-20-2010 1:52 PM

I'd like to see somebody do THAT on a snowboard

txwakerider14 09-20-2010 2:59 PM

Because this thread is about one trick, when people put up videos of other big tricks like Sovens Crow 7, Ruck's Double Mute Roll or Steel's tsbs 9 no one is saying wow best rider in the world right there. The only person I have seen that with is Harley and it is justifiable because every week there is a new video of him landing a new trick along with 3 or 4 crazy tricks. Not trying to start a flame war or anything, I was just stating that it was a quick judgment.

captain_vilfo 09-20-2010 3:35 PM

I was surprised that he hadn't already accomplished this lol regardless, it was an amazing trick.

benjaminp 09-20-2010 3:47 PM

Brian, my guess is that J.B. has seen more than one Nick Davies video. And I hope you have too.

jdwake1 09-20-2010 6:42 PM

Insane, to bad he didn't get this in time for trick of the year

wakeboardern1 09-20-2010 6:42 PM

Brian,

You know that little kid who had just come out of the dentists office and was still on meds? Well he didn't ask if that was real life because the world was funny due to the drugs, but because he had just seen a video of Nick Davies riding cable...

txwakerider14 09-20-2010 8:38 PM

Im not taking anything away from Nick Davies, the trick is insane, but I think he would have won cable rider of the year if he was the best in the world

cheesydog 09-20-2010 9:45 PM

Its subjective, if anything I would say Fooshee edges out Davies with obstacle/kicker work (Switch and regular pete 7s, 1080's on lock) and Davies edges out Fooshee with air tricks (KGB 5, Raley 7)

Personally there is just something about the way Davies rides that makes him the best, in my mind.

Kane 09-21-2010 2:43 AM

Sick.... but then he did stomp a 7 beind a jetski!

kwipp 09-21-2010 5:18 PM

Fooshee and Davies are both incredible riders to say one is better than the other I wouldnt go that far they both hold it down. These guys dont go out and ride because they hope on some internet forum somebody is calling them the best cable rider in the world its what they love to do.. so who cares about a rank? Ride more judge less.

norbiv 09-21-2010 7:38 PM

Nicks the man. no questions asked

hyperlite 09-22-2010 11:46 AM
