That would be "Flipsider" himself... Ellis Piltz. He proposed it at the same time he proposed Atomic.

Interesting little fact - nobody has ever gotten the answer wrong to a question that I've asked in this thread :oops: , and this is no exeption :lol:

Guess my questions are to easy, but beware: The next one (if I get to ask again) is going to be a mind-boggler.

FINALLY I have the question and with any luck people are still checking this thread...

Who was the first person to hit Swirling Symposium Whirling Swirl?

BONUS: Where was it hit (i.e. location)?
DOUBLE BONUS (if that's allowed): When was it hit?

Good question.

I'm guessing Ales Zelenka, 2004, Australia (Melbourne)

EDIT: I mixed up my components (He hits symposium whirling swirl, not swirling symposium whirl. Oh well)

DAMN IT ANDREW. I was sure no one would get that for a while at least.

Yes it was "Rippin'" Rick Reese back in '92 or '93 (I would have taken either answer because he couldn't quite remember himself.) He hit it at the Holidome in Golden Colorado.

Your question Andrew.

just as a side note to that last question - Kobus, Ales hits Symposium Whirling Swirling Mirage in Australia... but he had hit it before that, like at Worlds last year. he just named it in Aus...Croxton!!

Should we assume you mean first ever US Nationals? You're on an international forum my friend, be specific.
