Trick Identification

Is it just me or is it a really confusing system how tricks are named? Like for a cork 7 its not a cork with a 720 but a cork with a 360. Whats the deal with double corks too, if you do a double cork without any rotation then is it a dub cork 7? and then another 360 would make it a dub cork 10?

Rodeo 5 Flip=360 Spin=180

A cork 7 is a 7 while being off axis not a 3 or whatever youre talking about.

no, it makes sense because a flip counts as 360. so rodeo 5 is a flip plus 180, rodeo 7 is flip plus 3, rodeo 9 is flip plus 5

it makes sense because of something you almost touched on. imagine a 7 getting more and more corked-- eventually one of the 360s becomes a flip basically.. hard to explain now that i think about it but watch a shit ton of tricks and youll see why it makes sense. let me know if i can be more helpful explaining it with videos and shit

flips are still 360 degrees. And they count because the flips that your mentioning are off axis so all they really are is sideways spins.

right? don't worry about the nuances. it's either spinny shit on rails or spinny flippy shit in the air. that's how I see it. you wanna get technical and get pissy over it then thats your issue I guess

It is kind of confusing, I agree. Unlike in aerials, tricks are somewhat arbitrarily named, instead of using flip and spin combos. Learning and truly understanding the different trick types takes a while for everyone. Start with the ultimate trick guide in the trick tip cult. A link to the cult is here:

Hope this helps.

50% of chance that your flatspins are actually rodeos

In my opinion, rodeos have a unique rotation where there is actually 720 degrees of rotation but its in kinda corky flippy manner. A regular flip with a 360 would just be a backflip 360.
