|

Alright there has been discussion of some tricks that could be seen at xgames and if 2 huge tricks were landed (1080 or Double cab mobe) which one would take the gold (this is saying that the 2 normal passes are very close)
I say if Parks landed the Double Cab Mobe he would take it, but if Phillip Soven landed the first ever 1080 it would be mighty close. I added the tripple speedball just to see how people thought it would hold up. |

| if soven landed a 1080, it wouldnt be the first ever... parks already landed one and so did mark kenney without getting it on video for proof. i guess it'd be the first in competition though. i think the double cab mobe would win. im pretty sure it would wow the crowd more anyway. |

I think every one of those moves makes our sport look gay.

The double half cab roll wouldn't win over the 1080 but the half cab mobe would win because is a 360 instead of just the 180. _________________ Charge It

The 1080 would take it. Come on, that is way more difficult, plus everyone is pulling for somebody to land one. _________________ www.ten-80.com |

May 2005 Vol. 13. No. 4 of Wakeboarding magazine has an article about how Parks Bonifay is the only one with documented evidence of having landed a 1080 and this was in August of 1999. _________________ Check out my wakeboarding links page. |

If Kovak brought back The Boner flip he'd win for sure, but of the two listed above the one that was hucked frantically and looked super spinney flippy with no style would win for sure. _________________

If we are arguing that Parks lands a double halfcab Mobe and Soven/Harf lands a 1080, the double up won't be the deciding factor. Danny and Froggy are better off the wake so if they have stand up runs it really doesn't matter what anyone else does.
These tricks tie in my opinion and Parks can do em both.  |

| parks can have just as good of a stand up run. switch whirly, whirly 5, s bend, skeezer, front to fakie. i just think it's crazy that he's landed IMO the two hardest tricks in wakeboarding. and if someone landed a 1080, they would definately beat harf/soven pretty much no matter how good their runs were |
