Worlds Biggest SNOWBOARD KICKFLIP. Filmed by Andrew Santos Media. Shot at Whistler Blackcomb.
Thats pretty sick!
But it should be named properly. Its a Kickflip Indy (grab). Totally different trick to a Kickflip where it is caught solely with the feet, not hands first.
good editing. its a shame its fake.
Fake? How do you know? Not saying it’s not, but looked pretty legit to me. You must be seeing something I’m not.
Box Head, you dont even have eyes
Yep, looks like there’s been quite a bit of discussion on YouTube about it. If it’s fake, looks like they fooled some people. It was posted on TWS as well.
Box Head, you dont even have eyes
Or a brain.
if you watch it slowly you can see that hs front foot never moves and the bottom of it becomes blured as the board rotates.
what i suggest has been done is that he has had the back foot unbound as he jumps, then kicks out the back foot and grabs the board.. so its like an indy with the back foot out (still cool) if you pause it while the board is rotating you can see where the old board has been blured out and the rotating board edited in.
oh and then hes front foot is magicaly bound in again as he lands
Lame. Someone needs to do this for real ASAP.
I still can’t see it though.
Fake :( shame .. Great tight editing. Noticed the cut straight away thought my phone had freaked out.
Lobster crew will be the first to do it
Or Scott Stevens.
^ True!!
I think it’s fake, and I think it’s rad. My 2 cents
His feet were in the wrong position to kick flip a snowboard. It’s actually really bloody hard.
If he tried to kick flip like that, the board would have just fallen away from his feet.
