Talk:Flip trick/Archive 1

message: What should we do about standardizing the capitalization of tricks?  Personally, I do not see them as proper nouns that would be capitalized.  In most skateboarding magazines, the trick names are not capitalized.  I think it would be proper to capitalize the names in the list "Frontside Flip", for example, then refer to the trick uncapitalized otherwise (just "frontside flip").  I will probably make this change within the next few days, unless there is opposition and a reason for it.

thread_title: Capitalization

message: Now references Caballerial. "(can also be done with a regular ollie, switch, or nollie)" is wrong since the Caballerial states that it is done from fakie stance. Doing it from nollie stance would more likely be named "nollie flip 360" or similar.--Mnsc 13:13, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cab flip 

message: I've never seen this trick performed by any professional skaters. From the description it sounds like a "disco" kickflip is just a kickflip done with terrible mob style (see http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1460951). Can anyone cite an example of a notable skateboarder who does or used to do this trick? Perhaps it is an older thing and should be kept for historical reasons. 
Oh, and later in this article, under the explanation of the trick "Sex-Change", it is mentioned that "the heelflip variant of a sex change is also known as a Disco Flip." Not to be confused with a "disco kickflip", I take it?   203.220.166.239 06:52, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

message: It's a kickflip then the skater puts his front foot under the board then kicks it up and the board flips the other way. [[Rodney Mullen helped invent this trick.
: Yeah, it's in THPS, so I guess it deserves mention. --Liface 00:54, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Kickflip Underflip 

message: :This move is NOT the same as a Late Flip. After the skater ollies, he/she then flips the board with the back foot on the toe side (like a Kickflip). Can also do a Back Foot Heelflip, or Nollie Front Foot Heel/Kickflip. An exmaple of this move can be seen in the Plan B videos (Questionable, Virtual Reality, Second Hand Smoke, and Revolution). For example, Rodney Mullen does a Backside 180 Double Back Foot Flip.
So, can I add this trick?-it HAS been done by pros.
: Sure. Make sure to cite a source, I think we want to make this the standard. --Liface 07:09, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Back Foot Flip

message: Its a trick that i have invented a while back. Its hard to land and uncomfertable to perform,but if you can catch it on tape(i cant, i get camra shy when i do tricks) its really cool. While rideing at a moderarly slow pace, you ride in a hangten stance(you dont bring the back trucks up, you just ride with your toes hanging off the board a little) and you pop the nose of the board and then with your toes you pull it back. If you do it right the board hardflips between your legs. The trick its self isnt that hard to do. The problem is landing the trick or learning how to bail without going sterile(for all you guy skaters)

: Sorry man, policy is that tricks have to be established and performed by a number of skaters. --Liface 06:05, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
