i'm assuming you were jumping off of something, because otherwise how could you do a crankflip then a unispin ... nevermind i just got it. for a second there i thought you had to do a crankflip, then a unispin, but now i understand you can do them both at the same time.

but were you jumping off of something? just curious.

You'd think so, but you'd be wrong.

In the video, for the FVF you hoptwist counter, and also unispin counter. So, what does that rename the trick to?

full varial flip

Well This was a great trick to go down in my driveway. I believe I was snackin on some apple sauce watching tv and I heard shaun SCREAMING (in the video) so I ran out. (You can see my on the lake side when is he saying "I finally got it" I run out on the deck. Little did i know a full varial had been thrown down. Saw the footage and it was nutty.

wow

I love you shaun.

P.S. Pete you suck

Wow this is getting crazy. Well first of all I didn't say the uni was going the same direction (which it is but that is completely pointless) the unispin is my BLIND spin wiht varials. I'm spinning it my unnatural way when I varial, check any 720 vid out, it's going the opposite direction with any unispin as the varial unispin, but it has my dominant twist direction. Get it? Not this same direction opposite direction stuff. I'm talking about dominance. In smallspins, the uni is spinning the dominant way, but the twist is BLIND! To me, it's easy, i guess i've been around it for about a year now.

I'm sorry you hate street riding mike. But thank you for inventing the Crankflip, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be where I am now. But the naming is the same reason why I love street riding. Weird.

Damn private jokes

That is one sweet move, watching it pulled off is great. I love the way you hold on to the saddle to allow it to move. thats a real technical trick.

I'm not getting involved with the naming and such. I thought you were right shaun, but now I'm just confused.

180 Treyflip... Makes perfect sense really... Considering Hickflips should have been named Varialflips. (following skateboard logic)

This trick obviously never happened because there is no videographical evidence.
Obviously I'm joking.

But then how do we differentiate a bigflip and fullvarialflip? And then hickflips/outflips? We could get rid of in/out but I doubt people all around would agree to that....

Oh, I just noticed the other day that Thibault spins his outflips blind... Crazy sick he can pull fifthoutdoubles that way.
I don't think we should change it, it is just perfect like it is.

And it is not actually his blind direction. Like Shaun said three years ago, it is simply what feels more comfortable for him, Thibault, me or anyone else who have their twists in the opposite direction of their spins.

My comment was not pointed to you precisely, just in general.

I guess it is mostly a lasyness factor. I cannot imagine myself re-learning a new lingo and stopping saying the old one. I still find hard In-in treyflip...

Naw, a big flip on a skateboard, would be a 180 hickflip, or as we know it, a small flip, varial flip and such...

a bigflip, or full varialflip, or 180 trey(for this threads sake) in skateboarding terms would be a 540 big flip. or "bigger flip".
