Both skier and snowboard Big Air at X-Games 2014 were won by throwing Triple Cork tricks. ย The age of the Triple Cork has arrived. ย Max Parrot of Canada just won the X-Games Snowboard Big Air with a Triple Cork 1620.
You’re going to have to throw Triple Corks to win from now on. ย There’s likely not going to be many exceptions to this new rule. ย Snowboarding and skiing are changed forever.
Quadruple corks? ย How far off are they? ย We can assure you that they aren’t far off. ย These guys make big money throwing these tricks at this level. ย They want to push it. ย They want to be the best, the want to go bigger, and they’re willing to pay the price.
