whats the hardest mobe 3 to do: kgb, moby dick, slim chance, etc???

or, which mobe do you see least often from riders?

(andy_nintzel)

That's a tough one, I would be for me at least its a Slim still have only landed 1 after years of trying.

All kinda in the eye of the beholder.

toeside backroll backside 3

(andy_nintzel)

Ohhhh, good one Waterdork, that is a gnarly trick.

I would say the easiest mobe would be the crow mobe.

Depends on the rider and how good they are at certain base inverts. I always had lofty and could really boot toeside roll to reverts so for me a Pete was my first mobe. Blind Pete's are without question the mobe you see the least of. Crow Mobe's I would say are prob the most common with Moby Dicks coming in a not-too-far-behind second.

I'd say a legitimate S-mobe is very difficult.

how about a blind slim chance? when was the last time you saw one of those...

(focker) · (focker) **Join Date: Aug 2006** 10-08-2009, 10:45 AM

Nick - "or"?

There are probably less than 10 riders that can do a Blind Pete (I can only think of about 4 that I've seen). Almost every pro can do a Slim Chance.

Adam that would be very hard to distinguish from a Moby Dick. Very few people can do a legitimate front to blind.

Isn't a blind slim chance called a Fat chance ???

(eubanks01) · (eubanks01) **Join Date: Jun 2001** 10-08-2009, 10:47 AM

Wouldn't a whirly be one of the easier ones if you have a solid tantrum? No handle pass involved.

I'm guessing a Fat Chance is harder than a Slim Chance!

Mark Kenny used to air blind front mobes, but i've never seen one off the wake.

A Fat Chance is a switch Front Mobe, has nothing to do with rotating backside.

(behindtheboat)

Fat Chance is a switch Slim Chance. So yes it would probably be harder. Byerly landed it switch before regular, then I don't remember who landed it regular and called it a slim. I think it was Dean Lavelle

Hasselhoff would be harder imo than most of the mobes

Eubanks - if a whirly was a mobe then yes, but its not :-)

wow that was great shot Alan.

So no one thinks the S mobe is hard? I haven't seen anyone do it behind a boat. I've seen Fooshee do a lot on the cable and heard he was trying them on boat, but don't know if he ever landed one.

what's an s-mobe?

(bendow) · (bendow) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 10-08-2009, 12:04 PM

same thing as a slim chance but it's an s bend instead of a front flip

(andy_nintzel)

video?

(captain_vilfo)

That double mobe by parks I think wins the discussion

(jhebert) · (jhebert) **Join Date: May 2007** 10-08-2009, 12:46 PM

(bendow) · (bendow) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 10-08-2009, 1:27 PM

anthem, kenny's blind slim in the flats is the only one Ive ever seen landed. Freakin nuts. I remember seeing a video of Ruck in the PWT doing one off the double up and falling. Crazy trick.

The heel mobe is pretty brutal to learn.
Granted a bunch of people do it, but the falls are miserable!
