hahaha I have a LOT of love for torstein, but my husband just pointed out when I was showing him and when we slowed it down, I saw he was right! Just thought I’d share.

 

I’ve watched this run on black winter for years now. I thought the same thing when I first saw it - in the black winter edit they add a “tink” to make the sound more clear. You can see when he hits it the heel edge of his board, and the nose starts to raise more. It’s easier to see in a good quality copy of black winter and using vlc to slow it down at least 5x

I don’t see the point of adding the sound if he didn’t hit it - especially when he has so much respect and credibility and such actions would loose that if proven to be fake.

Hard to tell from youtube but I have a better quality version at home will have to have a look.  Speaking of adding sounds, on Wednesday when state of origin is on watch it and tell me if you think they turn the crowd and field mic levels way up just as the player is about to get tackled, a mate and I were killing ourselves laughing at how obvious it was last game.
