Best cover in quite a while.
i feel like i saw the footage of this, and it was a straight kickflip. not even like the gilette backside flip debate, this was a pretty straight on kickflip. Jaako posted it a while ago on his story, but I could be misremembering.
I'd call that a frontside flip but let's not get into that right now. Point was that dude is awesome and had a great fucking cover just recently.
That's only a fs flip if a kickflip on a hip is a fs flip
I mean you can do a kick flip on a hip frontside or backside right? I’d called it a frontside kickflip before I’d call it a FS Flip but this is where it gets real semantical.
''kickflip approaching like you would backsideflip the hip but then dont, so like straight but frontside'';
is not a trickname so its ''just'' a kickflip, no?
This logic is flawed, you're setting up a false argument, nobody has ever said that shit you just spouted off as a trick name. Yes its a kickflip, yes its basically straight, but when you tell the homies you want to kickflip the hip, and they ask you "frontside or backside?", so its not "just" a kickflip, there's an element of direction there regardless if its a true "frontside flip" or a "backside flip" like it would be on flat. Kinda like how if you go over the back on a 50-50 on a ledge, just because you didn't actually pop frontside or backside doesn't make it not a frontside or backside 50-50, its about the direction your frontside and backside are in relation to the ledge, the hip, or in this case, the massive curved wall down this set of stairs.
theres a clear difference between a frontside flip and a kickflip on a hip.
50% of kickflips on hips are frontside. More or less...
So did you just put of in the search and then scan the thread titles so that you can necro every thread that uses this affectation that for some reason bugs you? Because if you did, that is something a madman does.
Maybe correcting this?
on a side note back to the origins of the thread...
-Jacopo is amazing to watch
-I'd call it a Fronstside
]Kickflip rather than a Frontside
Flip
