He KILLED IT!!! Nuclear Crow Mobe 5 was big and stomped, as was his whole finals run. Soven landed his whirly dick also. it was the best tour stop this year IMO. All the riders seem to be in mid season form, fun to see.}

NUCLEAR CROW MOBE 5?!?!?!?!? you have to be kidding me

Yeah is that right? Nuclear crow mobe? Any back hand grab on a crow move seems impossible... That's incredible if he is pulling that off.

We watched Rusty ride at the Masters, one of his runs, he spun just about every way you can down the lake, and then on the way back I know he grabbed three tricks nuclear. He makes it look so easy. He was also a super nice guy (as were all the pros we met).

Yeah Rusty! He's been on fire for over a year now. Unbelievable.

Hung out with him and Henshaw for a while at Wakestock last year. He was one of the coolest and most laid back pros there. Seemed real down to earth and not at all full of himself.

Whatever....he rides like that because he trains year-around in Florida.

Still looking for confirmation on this Nuclear Crow 5? Who else has witnessed this?

Maybe he uses his front hand and grabs the board "nuc" while doing the 180...It's like doing a method scarecrow, it isn't "technically" method because it is your front hand but is method because with the 180 incorporated, it becaomes your backhand, but either way, that is friggin rediculous

Exactly my point. Most grab something with the front. You can complete a method scarecrow without ever switching hands or releasing the grab. To begin rotating for a scarecrow or crowmobe with only your front hand sounds tough. I know Billy tonis can do it, but grabbing nuke and taking it to a mobe is nuts. Maybe I'm the only one that thinks it's a big deal though.

"on the way back I know he grabbed three tricks nuclear"

bad composition.
