trick names

CKCrowe said:

wht are riders talking about when they say fifth flips, or 3/4th flips
idk?
I dont get it?????
Those kind of flips and stuff?
Then if theyre riding fakie or switch, wth determines wht you call the
trick????

A fifth flip is a 540 unispin with a flip. A 3/4 flip would just mean
you didnt flip it enough and the cranks landed vertical.
Fakie is riding backwards, if the trick is written with fakie in front
of everything then it is just that trick riding backwards but if
"fakie" is written at the end, attached before "flip" then they are
riding backwards and flipping it backwards. an example of that is hick
fakieflip, you are riding backwards and do a 180 unispin with a
backflip.
Switch means its in the opposite crank position.

p.s. you make a lot of threads.
and "what" has an "a" in it.
