  3. Yo, Dang this thread is getting long. Ha. oh well. It's rad. Ok, all
    these street tricks make sense. I few don't. I've got this street trick
    no one has named, so i'm guessing no one has done, lol, it's realyl hard
    too. Full X up unispins are hard, but just jump really high. um. I don't
    know, i lost my trian off thought reading this whole darn thread, lol.
    OH well.Laters.

    *I don't think you should list combo's and junk. Otherwise there are
    to many tricks to count. Also don't take a trick and say like 180
    crankflip, 360 crankflip, 540 crankflip... etc., then like switch 180
    crankflip, switch 360... or backward 180....

    I think you get the picture. Its not to anyone in particular but I've
    seen a couple people say junk like that. It just gets repetitive.

    Just a thought,
    David *

    i understand where your coming from.

    but combos are different than the tricks on their own...

    these are compeltely different tricks that people will want to know is
    possible... everyone knows how to grind, and probably 360... but dont
    stop there... do a 360 into a grind, why the hell not?

    combos are definitely getting better... and should be recognised as
    their own tricks...

    switch is just switch... you can just chuck switch at the start to X2
    all these tricks... i have no time to write it.

    different trick?

  7. Is there a name for the trick Dan Heaton does at the start of Universe
    2? It looks like he does a 180 with his body and the uni does a 360
    unispin. There is also another one in which he does a 180 and lands on
    the tire in a position similar to koosh-koosh. From there he unispins
    out. I've done a search but couldn't find anything.

    I've heard this first trick is a body spin combined with a unispin. I
    think this makes it a varial. [Body spin is where the uni stays still
    and your body rotates through the air around it.]

    As far as I know there isn't a name for landing a unispin on the tyre
    (followed by unispinning out). Maybe Dan has a name for it already? Or
    has it been done BD (before Dan)?

  13. Hey Everyone,

    I wasn't too serious with that name of the trick (180 with 360). I just
    said it because it's a quick whip/snap motion to the trick.

    We'll have to collectively come up with names for moves sometime and get
    it all written out. I was pretty happy with coming up with that trick
    though and would like to be the one that has final say on a name. Any
    ideas? I prefer to come up with original names...

    First person I saw do an x-up was Andy Schwartz in 1998...

    yeah i dont think so, unless its in a footplant and you just stand
    there while it spins, if the footplant is longer then 1 or 2 seconds,
    youre just standing there buddy.

    *i have not filmed any crank flips, i was only able to do them 2 weeks
    before my leg was broken, i didnt think of filming them.

    2 people saw me do em though *

    -Said to me later by Evan Byrne-
    * I have never done a crankflip, I lied.*

    I know you are talking about revs but I see a similarity...
