A 720 revert is a 900. It's impossible to land spins straight down, you shoot out. The revert causes traction when you land so that your bodies momentum slows down so that you can ride away. Watch any slow mo footage of 540 or 720s and you'll see that if the person goes straight down they'll lean back and probably drag their hand on the ground.

Lol ur wrong most ppl who do 900’s don’t revert it like he was. Even on the 1260 Mitchie brusco didn’t revert

Im not trying to be a troll or say it doesnt count or anything stupid, but I do wonder if the revert at the end still makes it a 900. I understand that his body did two and a half spins before he rolled away, I just wonder if some officials wouldnt count the revert.

@bumshortsfolife look closely at bobs spin and he drops his front wheels then spins another 50 degrees and drops his back wheels directly down. Notice how is shoulders drop dramatically because of the halt of momentum while coming straight down. And if you go up a wall looking to execute a spin at a 120 degree angle you won't make it over the coping. That's a coping level or less trick.

Definitely a 900, he just reverted the last half rotation. Still mad respect for landing this

If I do an air to fakie but do a revert after I land it is that a 180 air?
@RevJenkins138 жыл бұрын
A revert is always to fakie. so, this isn't a revert in any way. Front truck slides some, sure. Fully committed spin for the 9. Tailgrab puts his him the backseat from the start. Proper 900 in my eyes.

Who cares if it's not a full rotation. That shit is crazy scary, but alex always looks like he's totally calm and relaxed. Gotta say his body has got to be beat to hell by the end of the day.

@SwitchRich if you watch it in slow motion you'll see that the last 10-25 degrees are slid but georgio zattoni has by far the cleanest 900 I will give you that. And people debate as they will need to know that a revert is a 180 degree turn on all four wheels, and it's basically impossible to revert out of air tricks. It's just a spin. When I did my first 540 when I was 13 the easiest thing to do to land it was to gain traction by releasing it early and catching the last 60 or 70 degrees. This i

really a 720 revert but still sick!
@cenok42012 жыл бұрын
as sleepless said, its a 7 with a revert. If you think this is a 9 you need your head checked. for it to be a 9 he has to spin the full rotation before landing. No disrespect to this guy though. its a raw 7, but it is none the less a 720 with a revert

A revert is only 180 degrees technically speaking he lands a 810 and slides 90 degrees. but i wouldn't criticise a trick you can't do. nobody spins the full rotation on tricks unless its megaramp. there moving horizontal across a vert ramp so if you in theory attempted to spin a "perfect" 900 you would be tossed to your back. when georgio zattoni did his he did it on a huge roll in to the first wall not doing regular airs on a vert ramp like alex did.
@RadGnarRad2 жыл бұрын
Factually true - some of his other attempts were better - so it is facts he can land a clean tail 9. Just bc the one he landed was a little bit slid... whatevs. He proved he can do a clean tail 900

it's funny how all you haters are disrigarding this as a 900° yet Tony Hawk carved more and squatted it out... Alex didn't at all.

Squatted? Yes. But when Tony Hawk did a 900, he maybe carved 20 degrees. Go watch it again.
