What trick is this?
What Dean Smith does at the 31 second mark here:
http://vimeo.com/32876301 Is it a hs front with a bs 3? If so, I can't find a name for it: http://ridebutter.com/blog/wakeboard-trick-list/ |
Its a front with a frontside 3. Slim Chance/Fat chance or front mobe.
|
Im pretty sure thats an s-mobe. I think a front mobe is like a front to blind but with an extra 180. So itd be a front with a backside 360.
|
English is right. Slim chance. Or since it is switch, a fat chance.
|
yeah thats a frontflip with a fs 360
|
His arms have to go over his head before it can be called an S-Mobe. Dean didn't extent that trick into a Raley before the handlepass, so I agree...it's a Fat Chance
If a rider could do perfect Front Mobes AND perfect S-Mobes, which would be worth more at a wake park competition? An air front is harder than a Raley on the cable IMO, but doing a legit S-Mobe seems harder than a Front Mobe. |
its an S-Mobe... groupe please do your homework ... !

Tibo, I think your an amazing rider but you are wrong on this one. I knew this debate would come up sooner or later. I can't wait to post the results on my blog (see my profile).
The trick we are debating starts at 0:31 <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9PGYx7uuyX4?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Since Smith's arms dont go over his head, he does not get into a Raley so this in not a raley variation. It is a front flip. Here is a REAL S-Mobe <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0lG-9MG0zyQ?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
thank you cisco

its an S-mobe...
|
hahaha icant do either of them, but isnt the difference between an s mobe and a front bome the direction of the spin. the front 360 makes it an s mobe and the backside 360 makes it a front mobe. Thats what i was always told. Let me know if this is right.......

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZPqDrGvjdQ this is what i was thinking of.....it starts at 1:30
|
There are frontside Front Mobes and backside Front Mobes. Dean spun his frontside, and Norbi spun his backside.
