    Julian Carr is from a different planet

    While filming a segment for Rocky Mtn Sherpas new movie, Julian Carr front flipped the entire Air Jordan drop at Whistler over Stan Rey as he was hitting it proper. Biggest, baddest Air Jordan session ever...

    why on earth would anyone spend their day sitting in that lift line?

    I mean other than to watch people hit Air Jordan?

    That is fucking insane.

    I'm not sure I would call that the Air Jordan line, he was off to the right of the proper line. If the kicker was set up above the proper AJ line he would have completely cleared the AJ landing pad making it a single not a double, fuck that was huge!

    Any math wiz's out there that could interpolate the height and distance? I think we will be amazed if the #'s come in

    I think Julian's line deserves a proper name, idea's? Carr Cliff? Crazy Carr Cliff? Air Julian? problem is I can't see anybody ever hitting "Air Julian" again.

    Respect!

    Dave Treadway I believe was the first to hit it a few seasons ago so probably named after him.

    I think he referred to that as "real Jordan".

    I remember watching Julian hit that huge cliff under snowbirds tram during the US Freeskiing tour there a few years ago. That was big...

    BUT THIS 40 to 50 FEET BIGGER.

    I'd like to see some GOOD HD footage of that so I can slow it down, rewind, slow mo, rewind...
