    Double lighthouse flip and triple j-stick. Should be studying for finals but I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed.

    Breaking in this candy apple cush viking and im seriously just lacing every stall trick. Landed a bird turn over the valley with a reverse bird turn back over to a nodding off and on to an earth turn in. I think that was my best combo yet.

    I wasn't on my game today, didn't really get anything too crazy going... but I did watch @teejkolesnik get his lightning drop in, three tap airplane on though. Its a KWC... level 9? I like that trick. Sorry @Primechicken

    Ha ha!
    I just dont think that trick (KWC 2017 level 9-2) is a good KWC trick because;
    1) it's much too simple of a trick to be level 9 IMO. I'm not saying it's easy, but I don't think its even near the difficulty of the other level 9 tricks.
    2) It's pretty much 2 tricks- lightning drop, and the triple tap. Sure, there's other tricks in the list where the spike/in does not signify the end of the trick, however usually those tricks are designed in a comprehensive pattern (e.g. 1-2-3 tricks, around the, double-double, etc.) so this one kind of sticks out to me as odd.

    Personally I think the trick would make more sense, and fit better as a level 9 trick if it was- lightning drop triple tap airplane (no fall in after the lightning drop- straight to tapping) This would increase the difficulty for sure and also feel/look like 1 trick, instead of 2 tricks combined.

    Kris Bosch's KWC trick from 2016 was 1-turn lighthouse double tap falling in and that was only level 6 (KWC 2016 level 6-4) so I was a little surprised for this trick to be in level 9.

    Landed my first around kengarden! Not that special to many but for me landing that last downspike was very satisfying!
