World’s First Triple Cork in a Ski Halfpipe

It may be July, but that doesn’t stop the snow park junkies from booting up and getting some late season tricks in. Just because it’s the middle of summer doesn’t mean you can’t break a world record on the slopes, right? U.S. freeskier Hunter Hess would agree, landing the world’s first triple cork on a ski halfpipe last week. After spending time mastering his form on Mammoth Mountain and Mt. Hood, Hess was finally able to stomp the landing. Talk about a big summer blowout. To catch some more shred from this athlete, check out his ski films MAGMA I and II.
