Hey, I was just thinking about tricks section and how there is a lot of bullshit in there.. I was thinking maybe you could clean all the shit outta there so it remains helpful.

y not, we havnt had a thread like this in a while, i hope it gets as big as the 'whats a rodeo' thread a few months ago, but yea, i think we should follow snowboarding and just eliminate cork, if u do a cork 5 it should just be called a 5, rodeos, mistys, and dspins are a bit different so ud still have to call them that, but cork and bio are getting too complicated to call out and gay, quebeckfreestyler(sp) showed us the way on his pic of him doing a flat 7 or 5 and just calling it a 7 or 5, the quick version of my rambling bull shit, keep it simple bitches

why do we even keep the name d-spin? it's just an inverted cork. .... so it's an inverted 7.

there should be flatspin, misty, rodeo, and d-spin(mabye underflips). thats it cuz they are all signifigantly different and recognizable. and no more gay names for grinds like 50-50 and lip slide and shit, wtf people its a railside, stop using skating names. keep it simple damnit.

an underflip is just an inverted 5 -think about it. there is no other way to do an inverted 5 - excluding the regular misty/rodeo.

an underflip aint an inverted 5. an under flip goes 90/lincoln loop/90 but most misty 5s are thrown very similar to that cuz every bodys style is dif. just get rid of underflips.

the lincoln is off axis and rotated back towards the jump. it is an inverted 5 there is no other trick that is inverted back like that and spins 5. trust me.

i dont think so. an inverted 5 would be like going all the way upside down and then spinning on axis just upside down which isnt even possible to my knowledge. and underflip is clearly a 90/uphill lincoln/90 of course you dont do it like that, it flows together in one motion but if you watch a video of one and slow it down the lincoln can be seen clearly if its done right. underflips, rodeos, and misties all start at 5 cuz you count the flip as a 360 and actually spin only 180. 360+180=540 hence the fact that the above tricks all start at 5, not because you are actually spinning a 5 upside down.
...i think that made sense?

you obviously don't know what I mean when I say inverted. by inverted I mean that your ass comes over your head at some point. the fact is that you don't actually do a 'flip' you're off axis. and an off axis flip and an off axis spin are the same thing. an underflip is a 540. and it's inverted. if you try to do a d-spin 5, you'll do an underflip - and d-spins are just inverted spins. so a d-spin 5 is an underflip which is just a gay ass name for an inverted spin. thank you... goodnight.
