November 15th, 2008 at 3:48 pm
badass, looking good
November 15th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
that 12 was nuts
November 15th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
I have never heard of any of these tricks, this dude is a badass for sure
November 15th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
that first shot was the sickest, absolutely wild looking.
November 15th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
so dirty
November 15th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
the double cork was gnar.
November 15th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
uhhhh….sick son
November 15th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
NO RETARDED ADD!! WOO
November 15th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
and it was switch
November 15th, 2008 at 6:08 pm
Wow those tricks were freaking sick! Props David and keep it up! The switch back rodeo 12 was amazing ftw.
November 15th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
You are a maniac!
November 15th, 2008 at 6:38 pm
you yanks need to keep up, this was last season.
November 15th, 2008 at 6:40 pm
Holy crap. That was insane.
November 15th, 2008 at 7:06 pm
that song reminded me of Robot Food Videos, man we need that production crew back in snowboarding again.
November 15th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
ME TOO!!!! I still watch the old ones, those were the days
November 15th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
id put money down that shaun white will find this and then do one of these tricks in every single run of his season in a comp
November 15th, 2008 at 8:39 pm
yes, we need to come back really badly. most video companies suck compared to us. our videos were the best ever.
November 15th, 2008 at 8:47 pm
haha no way! ive never seen shaun white do any kind of rodeo or double cork. the kid can spin fast but hes way overrated an there are so many more talented and well rounded pros than him. take this vid for example
November 15th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
that was incredible. torstein horgmo won best trick with a sw back 12 and now benedek has sw back rodeo 12s!!!??? not human
November 15th, 2008 at 9:09 pm
benedek has been around for a while too, still pushin it. i love progression. and snowboarding, and candy grind.whoooooo
November 15th, 2008 at 9:20 pm
dam, Benedek is still far better than everyone else. so gifted and seems so smart, too many riders like shaun white in snowboarding today, doing the same tricks as everyone else, technically really well but kind of boring none the less. It’s good to see Benedek can still find ways to innovate for sure.
November 15th, 2008 at 11:00 pm
it was OK.
not really
November 15th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
how old is he?
November 16th, 2008 at 12:35 am
That was very sick. It looks like he throws the cork a little after he throws the rotation, looks so sick. That SW BS 12 looked effortless, props on crazy tricks executed with smooth style.
November 16th, 2008 at 12:36 am
high wyler

November 16th, 2008 at 5:27 am
great, but you should check out Travis rice in thats it thats all:
sw/bs doublecork 10
sw/fs doublecork 10
… layed down on backcountry kickers, duuuude
November 16th, 2008 at 5:53 am
I don’t think there was a rodeo in this video. I think its a switch cork BS 9 and a switch cork BS 12. To do a rodeo you need to leave the jump from your heals not your toes. Travis Rice and that Euro guy I forget his last name can do BS rodeo 10s.
“just an opinion…………but I’m right”
andy
November 16th, 2008 at 6:30 am
It was definitely a rodeo. I don’t think there’s some kind of rule that says you have to do them from your heels. Rodeo 7 and higher look more like corks (except you lean the other way) but they’re still rodeos.
November 16th, 2008 at 8:48 am
DERPA DERP DERP
November 16th, 2008 at 8:49 am
IT WAS DEFINITELY DERPA DERK DERPA
November 16th, 2008 at 9:31 am
Who is the band you have playing on your video? It is driving me crazy….the name of the band in on the tip of my tongue….I used to listen to this band back in the 90’s…I do believe….
Awesome video…awesome music. Makes me want to get back into snowboarding…
November 16th, 2008 at 9:37 am
I think I remembered….is it Dinosaur Jr.? Great music!
November 16th, 2008 at 9:38 am
Thanks David! That was so damn good. Will Robot Food PLEASE make another movie? Lame is still the best movie ever made, in my opinion. I bet you guys got one more in you….
November 16th, 2008 at 10:26 am
That definitely was not a rodeo. That’s not a put down, that’s just fact.
November 16th, 2008 at 10:52 am
shawn white sux.he a comp rat. whens the last time u saw him with a sick vid part…never. doesnt kno how to have fun
November 16th, 2008 at 11:04 am
Can Benedek and Rice pleas collaborate on a video together. Please it would make the snowboard world a better place!
November 16th, 2008 at 11:09 am
it reminds you it because the song is from afterlame..robot food vid
November 16th, 2008 at 11:10 am
its called budge by dinosaur jr. from afterlame babyyy
November 16th, 2008 at 12:33 pm
that was a nice switch double suckin a cak off
November 16th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
sooo sick. ive been wondering where Benedek went.
November 16th, 2008 at 1:11 pm
ill put money on sean white coming out with a wack fuckin shred game
November 16th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
money
November 16th, 2008 at 2:05 pm
Benedek seems like a cat who has a life past snowboarding, i find it interesting how being a well rounded rider may require being a well rounded person as well, either way those tricks were fresh and blew my mind once again.
November 16th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Hell yeahh Benedek!! its good to see some clips again man, keep slaying it
November 16th, 2008 at 3:48 pm
hes gotta come up with a name for those switch bs corks because theyre unlike any other type of flip spin combo
November 16th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
its hard to see but it was definitely a back rodeo. watch it in slow motion. u dont have to leave off ur heels. on a sw backside cork his right shoulder would throw down and his head would look down to the left. on this sw backside rodeo his front shoulder stays more level and his head looks over his left(back) shoulder. thats what makes it a back rodeo. pause it at 39 sec and u will see what i mean
November 16th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Holy sh*ttttt. This guy is a monster. SW rodeo 9!?!?
November 16th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
insane tricks, but there is nothing rodeo about the first two…they are corked not rodeod.
November 16th, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Dylan Thompson
November 16th, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Ja, der David ist schon ein guter.
Einen laaangen,enthusiastischen Applaus für diese Tricks!
Weiter so Herr Benedek
November 16th, 2008 at 5:44 pm
somebody call a doctor cause that was sick!
November 16th, 2008 at 6:49 pm
cause pablo sounds real German doesn’t it? AND pretty sure T-Rice threw down hard as f*** in That’s It, That’s All - watch that movie and get back to me about American snowboarders
November 16th, 2008 at 6:58 pm
typical Wednesday warm up
November 16th, 2008 at 7:06 pm
BS man. Shaun White can throw down anything in the book. He wil have these down in no time.
November 16th, 2008 at 7:12 pm
wurd this is sick but a lot of people are just as good not that impressed
November 16th, 2008 at 7:19 pm
dude fuck you! shaun is 13% hype and about 104% sell out. all he thinks about his how cool he’s going to look on the TV and what other kinds of snowboard accessories he can put his name on. get the fuck out of here!
November 16th, 2008 at 7:25 pm
how do you quit snowboardng?
November 16th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
Benedek Kills it! Hope to see more of his riding soon
November 16th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
JO: if shaun can throw anything in the book then y doesn’t he film a real video part showing us he can? because he cant! hes really good at spinning off park jumps in comps, and the judges always suck his dick!!!! in the last x-games all they talked about was shaun. i missed slope style and all they showed for highlights was his 3rd place run, NOT andreas’s first place run. wtf is that? he is an overrated, sellout poster bitch, and that’s not what i think snowboarding should be about.
November 16th, 2008 at 8:08 pm
shaun white could fucking kill this guy
November 16th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
yo dumbass its shaun
November 16th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
hahahaa… lemme guess, you think burton actually makes quality snowboards too. do you even know how to use a snowboard? or your balls for that matter? dont get me wrong, shaun white is good at what he does, but David Benedek is better at it, and every other aspect of snowboarding. end of story.
November 16th, 2008 at 9:58 pm
he can lick the camera in the x games again and pretend to be cool. hes SUCH a DOUCHE
November 16th, 2008 at 10:01 pm
yeah mad props for bringing back afterlame music. my favorite video. In my opinion david benedek is the most progressive rider snowboarding has ever seen. Next in line would be eero ettala. As for shaun white. He can spin straight up and down fast. I’ve never seen him throw a cork besides a mctwist. he’s really good. But not like this.
November 16th, 2008 at 10:54 pm
Shwan white is the best snowboarder ever! gooooo shawny!!!!!
November 16th, 2008 at 11:25 pm
If you want to get technical it’s neither a back rodeo or a cork. What he’s doing is a doing a flat switch backside 180 then throwing into a late chicane. What’s a chicane you ask? Well it’s a trick that was popular in about 2000-2001. Kevin Jones used to have a good chicane. If you don’t know who that is you should learn a little more about snowboarding.
November 16th, 2008 at 11:57 pm
shaun white is rich as shit and can ride everyday. thats why i like him
November 17th, 2008 at 2:20 am
david benedek has some amazing snowboarding moves.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:19 am
Are people seriously comparing Benny to White???
First, there is no such thing as the best snowboarder in the world. Their are riders who are better at certain aspects of riding. For example, “Real” snowboarding, Big mountain Jones is easily the best, with Muller right behind him.
But come on ,Shaun White, lol the kid sold out a while ago, dropping Volcom , so he could make his own clothing line at Target, WOW, he’s soo cool. And im not hating because thats what skiers do. I just think, Rice, Benny, Horgmo, E man, any of the euro dudes in actionhorsefilms.com , are at another level when it comes to progression and most importantly having fun . cause thats what snowboarding is,
As for those not being rodeos, he dips his shoulder, thus rodeo, and i think Transworld and David would know.
peace
November 17th, 2008 at 9:30 am
wow using a song from a video you were in I would thought that you would of known better that. but that was so sick!
November 17th, 2008 at 10:10 am
DEYY tERRK ERRRRR JEEEERRBBBBSSSSS
November 17th, 2008 at 11:30 am
those don’t look anything like bs rodeos. he does textbook bs rodeo 9s in lame. rodeos involve backflips and hes flipping/corking frontflip/forwards. dan is right about the chicane variation, but i think they almost look like bs double corks. at least benedeks version of them.
November 17th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
Its a shame that David doesn’t snowboard anymore. I’d love to see one last video part.
November 17th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
u guys need 2 stop talking about shawn white he sux. he shouldnt have even got brought up or compared to David. if ur trying to compare him to someone it should be more like andreas wigg and eero ettala. now those guys kno how to huck. shawn white and burton can suck one
November 17th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
props to the Rshanks comment also. fun is half the game
November 17th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
JO
Shaun White=Park Bot. He will never throw the double cork junx Bene’s throwing.
November 17th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Well aside from corporate Target brand snowboarding phenom Shaun White, This was a David Benedek video. Benedek is one of THE best out there. And he’s still true to the core of snowboarding.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Hi everyone! I’m a geek, and my name is Anthony! I would just like to say that all of you cuss way to much. I serious, these virgin ears of mine aren’t really used to so much profanity. Please stop!
November 17th, 2008 at 3:53 pm
You guys can’t compare shawn and david.David is a video guy and shawn is mostly a contest whore.Shawn is much more well rounded and consistant.He proves that with all his contest wins.Though main stream media and contest judges sweat him a little to hard.David’s technique on his backside rodeos is off, doesn’t do them correctly. Go see peter line do one he invented the damn trick! The measure of a well rounded rider is balancing out good video parts with consistant contest wins(see travis rice).
November 17th, 2008 at 7:01 pm
you guys watch the xgames? ha. well.. your the reason shaun is popular, sweet…keep bitchin.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:02 pm
word to that noel, why dont you guys go ride instead of bitching about people that actually win things and could throw down harder than you.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
i agree with noel and teddy, go shred and be merry. xgames are on saturdays, when you should be riding.
November 17th, 2008 at 7:25 pm
Dudes, have a little respect for both athletes. Shaun white is good, benedek too. They are both pushing the sport forward, both in a good way. That is why its so much cooler to put boots on over and over again each season, because guys like them inspire every shredder out there to master new tricks like this shit right here.
November 17th, 2008 at 9:37 pm
Yo guy above watch when you say EVERY shredder because shaun definately dosnt inspire me and alot of other people.
but there is a alot others that do infact all other pro riders.
and
Dude sorry shaun, But you suck! your whole persona is blown off the f*cking map youve made such a great name foryouself but you have to be the worst image of snowboarding imaginable. In your personal vid you made it all out like your f*cking bullied all the time but who gives a flying f*ck! in the begining of that sh*t all you did was sit on your skateboard and cry. for f*ck sakes guy your one of the biggest and worst names in snowboarding. and i dont care if you can spin out a 1080 on the dime i havent seen you do and flips lately.
friken ginger
kid
ps i only watched the vid because my ex wanted too, what a bitch
So basically what i have to say for a conclusion is that it dosent exactly matter what your doing its how your doing it.
i dont care if you ride pipe or street or anything its all about atitude.
November 17th, 2008 at 10:03 pm
HATEEERRRSSS!!….face it kids…they are some of the best if not the best in each of their events….both are sick……so you haters can go figure out how to get someone to lay you since everygirls is unwilling…
biiittcchheess
November 17th, 2008 at 11:15 pm
dude shuan white does have a shred game out…and it sucks haha its called shaun white snowboarding
November 17th, 2008 at 11:44 pm
David B. is the fucking man! He rips and you all are way to serious you barnies!
November 18th, 2008 at 2:48 am
dude, what the fuck… that was ridiculous!
November 18th, 2008 at 11:02 am
shred shred shred fuck shaun white!
November 18th, 2008 at 12:01 pm
Have you people seen The White Album? Shaun gaps to rails from huge booters that most of you chronic complainers couldn’t even dream of hitting. The reason Shaun White does the same tricks over and over is so that he can be consistent which is what judges are going to look for. Have any of you ever been to a major competition where the format is best 2 out of 3 runs? 98% of the riders can’t manage to string one decent run together let alone 2. Shaun wins contests,gets sponsors and money and will live comfortably for the rest of his life. Anyone dissing any pro rider for “selling-out” needs to get their head checked. You gotta pay the bills somehow being as Mommy and Daddy won’t be there forever kids. Stop living in a pipe dream.
November 18th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
Fuck you cunts. The game is sick. Who cares if Shaun’s name is on the box. You little homos are probably the types that enjoy SSX more. Shootin’ rainbows out your asses and such.
November 18th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
haha wow are you kidding.. so many noobs commented on this. shaun white might have more tricks then david but david is so much gnarlier.. double cork 12.. switch back rodeo 12.. cab double cork 10. shaun couldnt do any of those.. he is consistent with his couple of tricks and is a competition guy
November 18th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Off the page. LOL>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
November 18th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
I can touch it>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
November 18th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
God damn. Give the man some time i’m sure he’ll be banging them out legit like in now time. I’m sure the first rodeo didn’t look like a rodeo.
November 18th, 2008 at 7:44 pm
You people don’t know what you’re talking about. Back Rodeos has nothing to do with backflips or leaving off of your heels. Rodeo is a kind of cork. When you backside cork you have the base of your board towards the landing in the start of the cork while when you backside rodeo you have your head towards the landing in the start of the cork. How much you cork is up to you, and yes you can cork it so much that you’re completly upside down.
It’s all very logical, it’s as much of a bs rodeo as cab not being the same as switch frontside, bitches
November 18th, 2008 at 8:21 pm
all i have to say is shawn is a name for people who dont know what snowboarding is about to look to. like today a kid in my class who is a complet d-bag thought he knew all abot snowboarding because he saw shawn win xgames. he is just a name for burton to sell he has a credit card sponcer for f*uck sake. at the end of the day there are pros who can shred his balls but hes the one makeing the money…
ps. his game sucks dick, amped 3 is better
November 18th, 2008 at 8:23 pm
shit my bad ^ i mean Shaun (there we go)
November 18th, 2008 at 9:34 pm
i dnt see how u can call someone a sellout when ther makin a shitload of money like if u were that good wouldnt u want more money u guys all need to stop sayin hes a sellout bc ur all lil bitches dnt get me wrong hes ot my avorite rider n i do think comps r swung his way sometimes but he still rips n u act like if someone offered u millions of dollars that u wouldnt take? cmon now
November 18th, 2008 at 9:54 pm
Yo snowboardgeek in not saying that shaun is a bad rider or anyone for that fact its just his whole fucking shitty atitude its so overblown and fucking wimpy its like hes not proud of himself if i were that fucking famous id be very proud
November 19th, 2008 at 12:13 am

November 19th, 2008 at 9:50 am
anyone who even give two shits about the videogame sell your snowboard, pawn your plastic directonal from 1995, sit down on your ass and think about what youve done
November 19th, 2008 at 10:56 am
Sorry but this doesn t look like a rodeo to me. No way i could call it a rodeo… Probably more like an “unusual off axis spin”(?) that kicks it more likely with his soldiers and his body and less with his legs. You can even see that from the way he takes off the kicker. I like it and i m not saying that the trick sux or Benedek either but this isn t a rodeo for me.
A good example for bs rodeo trick is Travis Rice i would say.
November 19th, 2008 at 11:50 am
yeah,for sure, shaun white is fucking awesome but Benedek is a long way better because he do other stuff than just spin. He dont care to what the people say,totally different comparate to white
November 19th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
http://vimeo.com/2259765 chech snowboarding from finland!!
November 19th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
haha the first think I though of when the music started was Robot Food. I little part of snowboarding died when they shut down.
November 19th, 2008 at 3:49 pm
That was sick, he should def bring that to comps. he would smash ev one with those rodeos. cant wait to see him
November 19th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
whats all this crap talking on here? Shaun white is an awesome rider, so is david B. But I must say travis rice is the SHIT! they way he approaches the sport and what he does with it inspires me to ride. That is something that I can say most other pro riders dont offer
November 19th, 2008 at 7:24 pm
Sorry TWS and Benedek, No way this is a backside rodeo. He takes off on his toe edge for both tricks. I would call it switch backside corkscrew or late- corkscrew like Jason Murphy was doing back in the day. Check out the Kingpin videos. Benedek drops his leading shoulder, a backside rodeo is when the rider takes off of his heels and rotates backside over his trailing shoulder. David Scaffidi is the only person I’ve seen do a textbook Backside Rodeo 900 and that was in 2002 at the ESPN Freeride Big Air in Tahoe.
November 19th, 2008 at 10:06 pm
shaun white suck ass at pipe… danny kass throws down like a god in pipe. shaun sucks at park… he looks like helen keller who died her hair red and hasn’t showered in years… shaun white this… shaun white that. i hope that little fucker gets hit by a bus.
November 19th, 2008 at 10:09 pm
fuck that man… give helen keller a snowboard and she’ll throw down better than that flamin’ douche bag
November 20th, 2008 at 1:27 am
soldiers = shoulders, what i rly wanted to right in my msg…
and i m gonna also want to agree with cougars with what he said - you can call this late corkscrewo
November 20th, 2008 at 9:34 am
what ever happend to not giving a shit and just having fun?
November 20th, 2008 at 11:56 am
did anyone notice how your all complaining about White selling out and taking over and just trying to put his name on everything, all of this on the comment board for a video of David Benedek? the video has nothing to do with White, props to Benedek, the mans ridiculously talented.
November 20th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
right on plum. shaun white’s only as famous as people make him, and all these haters are doing a good job of once again making him the dominating topic. who the fuck cares about white, i think the more important thing is the funky ass corks Benedek comes up with. shaun white is going to dominate for a long time, but as for him learning how to do these tricks… forget about it. you bet your ass he’ll eventually have sw back 12’s, but we all know how shaun white spins, it’s going to be flat spinning and have 0% resemblence to any of the tricks in this vid.
November 20th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
man, thats probably the lamest comment ever saying that well rounded snowboarding means a well balanced mix of public appearances divided between contest and shred flicks. do you actually have a snowboard? i mean like do you possess and use one? let us know! caus so far it looks like you re more of a tv sports guy.
November 21st, 2008 at 7:40 pm
No shit…everyone should be out riding, instead of worrying about how much hype shawn white gets. no mater what people say, hes a great rider
so is benedek
November 22nd, 2008 at 4:40 am
Hey, guy’s , is Amerika’s national sport ‘Hatin’ & Dissin’,or what?
Just, Go out and ride will you!
November 22nd, 2008 at 6:46 pm
you can pay your bills without being a sellout…
shaun white does not go inverted unless hes in the pipe, no rodeos, no double corks…or any corks for that matter, if u can prove me wrong then show me some shots
November 22nd, 2008 at 11:18 pm
youhavetobegoodtobefamouse…soyourouttaluck……butgiveemcredit…….theyarebothgodsogetoveritandtheir”ba”attitude….
November 22nd, 2008 at 11:23 pm
i think that saying he as such a crappy attitude is crap………..and yeah…people who dont snowboard only know shaun white…but they arent real fans and they only know his name….plus…he he knows he can do stuff..and he wants to be better…so sometimes he has a crappy attitude..but dont we all?????
so i think that you haters need to realize that saying shit doesnt make a difference….haters are retarted and they arent real snowboarders…haters suck
November 23rd, 2008 at 5:10 pm
Holy shit Benedek kills it!! He’s a pioneer and always comes up with tricks that blow your mind! One of the best ever and one of the best in this day and age
November 23rd, 2008 at 5:44 pm
by the way. shaun competed in the x-dames witha broken board and still got tird.
November 23rd, 2008 at 5:47 pm
word
November 25th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
my ass shaun can do that!!!
December 4th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
I live in the MidWest where we dont get much snow. I know that we dont have as many Biger park setups, were confined to an area the size of a bunny hill i(if you can amagen.;P. but we still can throw down are tricks! I my self have done a dubel cork 1280* on a jump smaller than that 100*foot gap jump!
i think we need more recruts in to the midwest, I thear that EECCO (www.ellissnowboards.com)
December 5th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
