Trick Identification

Is it just me or is it a really confusing system how tricks are named? Like for a cork 7 its not a cork with a 720 but a cork with a 360. Whats the deal with double corks too, if you do a double cork without any rotation then is it a dub cork 7? and then another 360 would make it a dub cork 10?

+++K for replys
 
Rodeo 5 Flip=360 Spin=180

Same with misties(sp?) mistys?

A cork 7 is a 7 while being off axis not a 3 or whatever youre talking about.

 
no, it makes sense because a flip counts as 360. so rodeo 5 is a flip plus 180, rodeo 7 is flip plus 3, rodeo 9 is flip plus 5

it makes sense because of something you almost touched on. imagine a 7 getting more and more corked-- eventually one of the 360s becomes a flip basically.. hard to explain now that i think about it but watch a shit ton of tricks and youll see why it makes sense. let me know if i can be more helpful explaining it with videos and shit
 
flips are still 360 degrees. And they count because the flips that your mentioning are off axis so all they really are is sideways spins.
 
right? don't worry about the nuances. it's either spinny shit on rails or spinny flippy shit in the air. that's how I see it. you wanna get technical and get pissy over it then thats your issue I guess

In my opinion, rodeos have a unique rotation where there is actually 720 degrees of rotation but its in kinda corky flippy manner. A regular flip with a 360 would just be a backflip 360.
 
if i was gay enough to leave feedback on someone's profile for disagreements on a forum, on yours i would write "can't spell cause he's stupid as fuck and cant go 5 seconds without claiming his face off, please die"
