Bio vs cork

B

The way I understand it, a cork is an off axis backflip with a spin, and a bio is an off axis front flip with a spin.

so my first question is is this correct?

Secondly what is an on axis backflip with a spin, and on axis front flip with a spin called? Just backflip 3/5/7 and frontflip 3/5/7?

My understanding

Cork- backwards rotations with a spin

Misty- front rotations with a spin

Bio- off axis rotation/spin that never becomes inverted

how does rodeo fit into here

close

Cork: off axis rotation toward the back but never fully inverted

D-spin: inverted off axis rotation toward the back, flipping/leaning toward the direction of the spin.

Bio: off axis rotation toward the front with the feet never above the head. (a lot of "rodeo 9s"are actually bios)

Misty: inverted off axis rotation to the front

Rodeo: backward spinning flip, but flip is over the opposite shoulder as the spin. (ie: lean back right, spin left)

Flat spin set slightly forward feet come up parallel or a little more with the head
 
Ok so my new understanding is this

Front flip: on axis flip thrown forwards

Backflip: on axis flip thrown backwards

Spin: on axis spin, thrown to the left or right. Called left and right spins, or natural and unnatural spins. Natural is the riders preferred direction of spin.

Lincoln Loop/sideflip: an on axis flip thrown to the side. Often done imperfectly a little bit off axis.

Cork: off axis non-inverted backflip thrown with a spin

Bio: off axis non-inverted frontflip thrown with a spin

D-spin: off axis inverted backflip thrown with a spin

Misty: off axis inverted front flip thrown with a spin

Underflip: on axis backflip thrown with a slow constant spin, usually just a 180° spin (can be thought of a 90° rotation, Lincoln loop thrown up the hill, then another 90° rotation)

Overflip: on axis frontflip thrown with a slow constant spin, usually just a 180° spin (can be thought of a 90° rotation, Lincoln loop thrown down the hill, then another 90° rotation)

Rodeo: Still don’t really understand rodeos

Flatspin: Still don’t really understand flatspins

D-spin: off axis inverted backflip thrown with a spin

Misty: off axis inverted front flip thrown with a spin

Flair/Underflip: on axis backflip thrown with a slow constant spin, usually just a 180° spin (can be thought of as a 90° rotation, Lincoln loop thrown up the hill, then another 90° rotation)

Barani/Overflip: on axis frontflip thrown with a slow constant spin, usually just a 180° spin (can be thought of as a 90° rotation, Lincoln loop thrown down the hill, then another 90° rotation)

Rodeo: off axis inverted backflip with a spin thrown the opposite the direction the flip is corked. (Example: An off axis inverted backflip thrown over the left shoulder with a left spin is a d-spin. An off axis backflip thrown over the right shoulder with a left spin is a rodeo.)

Flatspin: a backwards corked spin thrown in the style of a rodeo. Like a rodeo but not inverted. (Example: A backwards corked non-inverted left spin but thrown over the right shoulder is a flatspin)

If anyone sees anything wrong with this plz lmk :)

I'm not entirely sure but I think flatspin is more of a backflip but set on a flat(ish) axis. I always think of pros hitting a flat 3 japan to help me remember it.
 
I think what I described gives you a flattish axis rotating with your back facing the ground.
