Here is Shane throwing some doubles last summer.

from pointless on Vimeo.



If he wanted to take a double roll 180 to triple roll 180, he would need to increase his rotation and/or his air time.

A HS triple roll 180 would look like this...

(fake photo)

A TS triple roll 180 would look kinda like this...



But I argue that it would be cooler for Shane, or any rider, to try adding spins to doubles instead of learning triples. I would rather see a double Mobe, double Pete, or double Whirly.

Adding a late blind 180 to his TS double roll 180 to make it look something like this...(starts at 0:34)

Dex: "Horgmo, He Is A Liar" from torstein horgmo on Vimeo.



A grabbed HS double mobe would look something like this ungrabbed double mobe attempt...(starts at 3:41 to 3:48)



A grabbed double Whirly would look a little like this...(starts 2:53 to 2:58)


but it takes some imagination.

I think Nuke grabbed double Whirly would look like Halldor's Lobster Flip...(starts 0:24 to 0:44)


The grab would look different, but the way he 'kicks out' in the second flip and spins would be the same as a double Whirly.

What would you rather see? Triple invert or double mobe?

Double mobe. No one's even close to a triple invert anyway.

depends.. speedball with 3 rolls would be cooler than a double mobe in my opinion.. however, I feel like I'd rather see a double mobe 5 than a triple backroll or tantrum

I guess its all preference

the second to last video in the OP of the "grabbed double whirly" wasn't a whirly at all it was just a double tantrum.. and i agree about that double or nothing clip wowwww

It's amazing that Parks can still pull out the hardest tricks ever done after all the injuries he's had.

Like I said. We don't need triples. Apparently neither do snowboarders. But that doesn't matter cuz wakeboarders don't care what snowboarders think.

Yuck man, I don't like their attitudes. If you want to be more of a freerider and focus only on style and not do triple corks, that's awesome. But if you're a competitive rider trying to get to the top of your sport, then stop whining about the triples. Man up and do them. That's what competition and progression are about. Also, I think triples look really cool, and they'll look cooler once guys get better at them and start adding more unique style.
