landed?
@nilsa- Look at the 5th pic along. Thats where he starts the second 360. 
@rage67- how can you say that doesn't have a 360 or bigger in it even if it is a flair???
@rider- Awsome trick, nice one

Heres a video of a 360 backflip on a bmx (With a swish tailtap):

Pretty similar, eh? Wierdest trick ever - no wonder everyone is confused.

@sd52bad- seems to me that hes starting the second 180... he's upside down and facing forward, 180 vertical and 180 horizontal unless I'm really braindamaged
oh, and if he was going for a flair there he wouldnt keep looking over his shoulder after overrotating that 180 if he wanted to stick it.. you know, unless I'm really braindamaged and got that one wrong aswell

think about it for a moment. how many people can land normal 720s on a mountain bike consistently? why would they be doing "Corked 720s" when they cant even stick a normal 720?
in shot 5 when hes FOWARD but UPSIDEDOWN he is at 180 of the 360 and mid FLIP.
He lands at 270, not quite rotated.

no, im pretty sure its a flip 720 (which is soooo sick!!!!) a corked 720 is a flip 360 so this is like a corked 1080... i think =S it makes me dizzy just trying to figure out what hes doing! lol
yea, its a backflip 360. theres some vid on youtube if u search back flip 360. i think its by jordie junn
no mate, i'm pretty sure if you look closely as i have, you'll see that he spins twice (720) while he flips. i've seen Jordie Lunn's flip 3 cos i've watched NWD 7 about a hundred times so dont imply im the ignorant one, yeah? even though i can't say for certain what it is, having never done a flip 360 or a flip 720, if you look at the picture and try to count how many times he spins its very easy to get confused and anyone whos done a trick like this can see that it's an easy mistake to make! so urban125; grow up buddy, and kid with the stuff; dont think cos you saw a video on youtube once of jordie "junn" (lol) you know what your talking about ok? anyway, its an excellent sequence and mega props to the rider, whatever hes doin!!! it maybe is a flip 3 but i've never seen a sequence of one before, i just assumed this was a flip 7 cos i counted two spins
[Reply]
no its a 3-flip. some guys ay they are doing 3 flips when theyre just doing an inverted 7. you can tell the difference because in order to be a 3 FLIP he must be upsidedown at somepoint. he is upsidedown
It's actually a corked 720. He's doing 2 rotations, the first one is completed by the 5th sequence. A 360 backflip REQUIRES you to do a flair, and I really don't see one there.
i dont think thats actually possible to land in a fakie and ride away but i do agree, it does look like he is landing backwards. nysso can you explain this please
[Reply]
Ok I think you all need explanations! This is a 360 flip but you can't see the landing because it's behind the dirt!!! Infortunately, he didn't land the trick correctly. That's too bad if you think how difficult that trick is! Only Jordie Lunn did it in a contest on a mtb! Anyway, props to damien for trying such a trick during a contest!!!
pretty cool but i think a lot too clogged up. maybe take out a few stages. awesome trick though and super clear photo

It is Le Toy 4
Same frame as the one on this pic... http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/712500/
Oh and btw... Awesome sequence!

Nope. The Pornking's seat tube doesn't go straight to the BB. The Toy 4's does. Check the Pornking pic- http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1676798/
that is super duper badass. mean props to the rider. i like the sequence its cool how you get to see the trick, i dont care if he landed it or not thats a sik trick.
Have you noticed the guys in the back? The're wearing winter jackets.... and Damien is wearing only a freakin' t-shirt!

[/ He's jumping right foot forwards, so he's spinning backside you can see 270 of a spin,you can't see the landing,if that,s just a pile of dirt and the other side is just a packed down version of what you see then it could be a backside 270 backfip to fakie, i've seen people land stuff pretty fast fakie it "could" be. If there's a smaller dirt lander in the same direction as the take off , then it could be a 360 backflip with a bit of transfer, cause it moves to the side. I feel that there's a realtively soft landing area and it's either a minor bail or a scetchy make at a 3 flip,totally excellent pic make's me want paint sh1t pink too abmB]

i thought it was a corked 3, but looks under rotated cause you dont see the landing???
pretty cool though

Thats a inverted 720. you can tell because he is has done a 360 when he is in mid air and then he rotates 270.
[Reply]
Awesome pic! Would be good to see it from another angle.
Also, I have a message for the people who now feel the need to spray their bike pink:-
DON'T DO IT!
Not only was it played out a long time ago but it's hella gay too!

Jesus christ there are some dumb dumbs... 360 flip is the same as a corked 720 pretty much. Both require two full rotations, only the 360 flip the rider has to be upside down at the point of completion of the first 360. If it was a 720 flip he would have to spin 3 rotations. Get it?? And by the looks of it i highly doubt he landed it as the bike has got in front of him at 270 degrees into his second spin meaning he would most likely wash out on landing.
i'm going with a 360 backflip and for the people who said a flair was a 3-backy, they're wrong, it's a 180 backflip.
isn't a flair a 180 backflip on a quarter pipe and a rodeo is a backflip 180 from point A to point B (jump to landing). To me this looks like a rodeo 720, but i guess most people are calling it a 3-flip.

jordie lunn isn't the only one to land a 3flip in a competition. atze etzold landed a perfect 3flip at the 26 tricks in leogang. here's the photo: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1579142/
i'm excited to see what tricks are coming next. it's unbelivable...

amazing, i think it would be sick just to show the third picture in the sequence. that would be pretty cool

i dunno, the trick is super sick, but i wouldnt say the photo is amazing, if the pod is judged on the trick i'd say good choice but if its on the photograph itself i wouldnt say this ones great.
SWEEEET!!!!!!!!
Its a 360 flip/ A corked 720, there both the same, as u carnt 360 flip, vertically straight, you flatten out a bit, so it is a 3 flip.
either way great pic, fantastic riding!

It is more than a 360, at the peak of the flip, he is faceing forward, and starts a second rotation!
it's not a flair, a flair is a backflip 180 in a quarterpipe. it looks more like a 360flip or a weird barrel rol to me. but anyways, props for the trick 
[Reply]
Definitely not a 720 invert, it's a 360 backflip. In the penultimate shot, he's about to rotate the final 90 to land, only he doesn't. Insane move.

yo i flare is a back flip 180 this is a 3 flip f*ck its not that difficult to see from the picture like you can only do flares on vert like WOW
and by the way very nice like it dosnt look luike your just huckin it looks smooth dope shit
and by the way very nice like it dosnt look luike your just huckin it looks smooth dope shit
the way i see it, he stalled it on the lip of the landing..... who cares what trick it was, its sick looking!
such a sweet pic! its a 720 flatspin for the people wanting to know what it is.......a flair is only on a quarter pipe/halpipe flip-air is what a flair is.....so basically its a 180 backflip......if it was a 720 flip he wud be upsidedown alot more than that. if he did a 540 flatspin he would have landed backwards. So hope i helped...
its a 360 flip! no flatspin in that, just a backwards spin, they kinda have the same technique but a flat spin is FLAT not UPSIDEDOWN and i only see 1 sideways rotation in that. just put it together, theres one backwards spin and one sideways spin = 360 backflip
also if u dont believe me go on youtube and type in 720 flatspin and check out the daniel dhers xgames run
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS JORDIE LUNN----- IT'S A 3FLIP U RETARDS I CAN'T BELIEVE U SEE FLAIRS AND 1080 AND 720'S OR 540'S JUST GO ON U TUBE AND WATCH JORDIES 3 FLIP.
Okay, so I have no knowledge to back this up, as I am only a downhiller, and dirt jumps scare the bejezus out of me.....I have to ask though, if he is at two separate points facing downward, doesn't that qualify him for at least a 540, if not a 720? Just trying to understand here....
ok really, ask the guy whos picture it is, ok Mr "nysso" please when u read these comments tell us if its a 3flip or a 720 flip!
hows about everybody shut the f*ck up about wat it rly is...
its sick ok? we ALL get it...now weather its a 720 540 360 or wtv...its still made POD and i agree with it....

True, it is sick as f*ck, def POD, it just looks like he is high on meth (in a good way) and we are all trying to figure out what the hell he is doing
[Reply]
its not a 3 flip....he rotates twice and doesnt go fully upside down. On the 5th pic he is going round for his SECOND full rotation which its so obvious to see!! if he was doing a 3 flip he would be doing ONE full rotation aswell as being almost inverted
its a 720 flatspin morgan wade does these ALL the time.....a 360 flip looks nothing like this!
also if he was doing a 3 flip he would have gone off the lip straight and dropped his shoulder when almost inverted however here he carves up the lip and drops his shoulder early therefore making him do a flatspin 720

no hes just got to 180 at that point. hes backflipping so hes the wrong way for landing for it to have already been at 360.
and no, its muc harder to spin a flip on a mountainbike so you have to start each pretty much the same time, my mate tries them in foam all the time and can only get 180 but the rotation is pretty much the same as this pic.

want my opinion and I'm pretty good at visualizing tricks. that right there is a front side 630 degree back flip. I thought of how he spun off and how he managed to land with himself facing 90 degrees away from his launch it definitely more than a 360 back flip but it would really help if you had a back view angle of his jump but from what i can make out he throws out a 540+90 corked back flip and thats my best guess because there's now way thats a 270 to much difference between the 9 speed shots
dunno cork 270 is like 45% maybe
and the odd 630 degree aerial flip is more the 55% lucky guess
but i didn't know anyone could whip a corked flip that well

from what i can tell, its a 360 flip, but i moved my body to each photo there and it looks like a 360 flip moving into a wierd barrel rolling motion as if you look at picture 6 to the final one the angle of the bike doesnt change much, him moving around does. its deffinitly not a 720 flip but what i do think it is is a 360 flip gone slightly wrong.
its a normal backflip 360 it isnnt corked barrel rolled etc. and its definatly not a 720
he underrotated the 360 a bit but still very very sick pic1
