Maybe even a 360 but it's hard to tell from the still shot. Nice jump as this freestyle skiier hangs in mid-air with his skis crossed in an X.

Rock Skiing in Nepal Himalaya Mountains

Trekking, Skiing, swimming... in Himalaya, Annapurnas, Nepal., originally uploaded by Eric Lon.

Who knew skiiers has such a crazy edge to them?!
