Under flips are more like 90, lincoln, 90, so you are really flipping sideways vs rodoes where you are spinning 'backwards'

Not really sure how to decribe it any better

a rodeo is sort of the opposite of an underflip, kinda. Underflips are thrown by turning then flipping on you side (like a lincoln loop) and then continuing to turn (in an this case - 270 degrees to make it a underflip 7). Rodeos however is more like a backflip 180 with out getting completely upside down (however, still going inverted). It's really hard to explain.

Rodeo's like pop so you flip back but slightly to one side. The key is that you spin to the opposite side you flip. Such as Flip right spin left.

4 ways the body can spin:

1) On Axis (how you learn)
2) Forwards (examples to describe- bio misty front)
3) Backwards (examples to describe-cork underflip dspin back)
4) Sideways (examples to describe-flat rodeo lincoln side)

If the term was still around, an underflip 7 would be a d-spin 7.

i use the term d spin all the time. A guy in the beginning of this thread used the word "full". They are the same thing.

really? would a d-spin 7 be the same has a underflip 7? because i do them both, and their not exactly the same trick.
