Billy Morgan Actually Lands an 1800 Quad Cork
Last day riding for the season so thought I would send one for the boys!! Thanks to Red Bull and to Livigno sorting the wedge! #quadcork #1800 #seasondone

It took a long time for snowboarding to get to this point. It’s kind of like the people on My 600 lb life. How do they let themselves get to that point before deciding to go on TV to do something about it? But of course, in snowboarding it’s not really a problem. Ugly, yeah. Necessary, nah. But it’s actually kind of exciting and gives us something to talk about. You have to respect the level of spinning and hucking athleticism it required. And Billy Morgan couldn’t have done it alone.
People have been claiming the quad cork for years. But now that someone actually did it, we have to ask ourselves: has progression gone too far? Did any one really need to try a 1800 Quad cork? Are we as snowboarders, happy that Red Bull made it possible? We’re sure Billy is, because there’s no way he would have tried that shit if he didn’t want to (and have a little bit too much Red Bull in his system.) Was it worth all the views? Was it fun?
Anyway, hopefully this doesn’t become the standard cause no one wants to watch that shit, it looks gross. Hell, no one else even wants to try that shit, do they? McMorris, we’re looking at you…
Preston Strout handled this the best.
brb… going to rewatch the last few yawgoons edits
what the actual fuck
damn, sweet mute grab too
Call toll free 1-800-QUAD
Doesn’t look any different from watching someone huck a backside double 10 mute twice. It’s impressive, but not even that exciting to watch this shit.
Seriously though it would be quite funny if it turns out halldor actually landed that quad attempt first
crazy to watch it happen, but we all know it’s just 4 cork 5’s off a single jump
I WISH!
yeah but CAN HE CARVE COOL?
Noo idiot! We were supposed to skip the quad and go straight for 5! This isn’t enough progression!!!!!
I really hope this doesn’t catch on. 3 was enough
people acting like they didn’t get excited… you know you stopped doing whatever shit you were doing and clicked this immediately.
fucking so gay. not even close to hesh. This makes triples look hesh. I am so angry. take this shit off
it’s good to finally see someone progressing our sport in the right direction. thank god for Red Bull
all you haters need to stop hating. thank god we have companies like monster and red bull to help push the progression of the sport to its extreme limits. imagine if there never was an x-games or dew tour, where would it be? you’re all losers.
FUUUUUUUUUCK, that was gay
RIP Snowboarding
1960- 2015
Beloved By Millions
Unfortunately Passed Away In The Arms Of Billy Morgan
In Sage we trust….
who the fuck is Billy Morgan?
stop being so dramatic
He’s a gymnast kid who’s not terrible at rails but really excels at flipping in pretty sure he was the second person to do a triple flip (triple backside rodeo) he was in the Olympics for great Britain but he really is just a gymnast jumper , still 3 more corks than I can do
god dammit
He’s pretty fucken shit on rails
Why would it be funny? Dude competes at the X Games every year. People need to stop pretending that guy isn’t a contest rider.
You know what would have been great? If no snowboarding website posted this, no one made a big deal of it and no one told him he progressed the sport. Leaving this guy Billy speechless like “what the fuck I just did a QUAD motherfucking cork! Someone props me!” Probably go up to people telling them he did a quad and they’ll be like “a quadriplegic? Was it Stephen Hawking? hahaha stfu guy no cares” Making him all pissed off till eventually he completely forgot he ever did one hopefully making him never do one again. Letting us all go back to our simple happy quad-less lives.
Keep in mind Yobeat is a but a small haven of hesh and core-ness in a big world of cork loving, x-games watching, red bull drinking bros who are getting hyped about this. Shit, even i’m a little hyped. Now I can make fun of my skiier friends cause no skiier has quadded yet
You sound like the type of person who complains when they release the name of somebody who committed a school shooting. “Don’t glorify the person doing the action and people will stop doing it.” Sorry bud, that’s not the way the world works. Clicks=money.

Dammit, I can’t figure out the internet. See SSX^ for the context.
Yobeat should never be speechless when writing about Spin to Win
whatever

Yea, but how’s his switch method?
CAN’T FRONT ON THAT.
Oh my fuck…its happening…
Oh my fuck…its happening the death of snowboarding
quadded isn’t a word

Sorry, didn’t have time to deal with it earlier. Also, whatever, let the dude be stoked on his quintuple cork.
@admin Wow, we’re pretty fucking behind. We caught up to them 32 years later.
No, it’s not. I’m very sure 98% of snowboarders around the world don’t even know this happened, and 80% of the world can’t even double. Just because the competition scene changed, doesn’t mean backcountry, street, carving, etc. will change. He landed a quad cork, so what? This might actually make snowboarding seem cooler to a skier. When Chris Cole landed a triple kick flip 720, did all skaters suddenly quit? No, they said “wow, that’s insane” and continued skating. Same thing will happen with snowboarding. Stop fucking assuming shit because someone landed something that seemed impossible.
Shut the fuck up dude. Just because Billy Morgan landed something by luck, doesn’t mean the whole world will pile their snowboards up together into a mountain then burn it…
That actually sounds cool, shredding down a mountain of fire.
True. We would’ve been labelled as a bunch of hippies with no lives. We would’ve still been banned from 99% resorts just like snow bikers. Him landing the quad cork will not affect the rail scene, pipe scene, backcountry scene, etc. I doubt this would even be introduced into slopestyle and big air for the next 1-3 years. This trick seems to be landed by pure luck. I doubt he would land on his feet again next season.
Most likely wouldn’t. This trick looks like luck, not from real practice.
5/10
So 20% of the world can double??
You must’ve been sucking cork during your statistics class
Everyone is a bunch of cork suckers
Alex Andrews looks like Stewie Griffen
fuckin if only the thumbs up would work, 10/10 comment
