Special names for 180 grind tricks

[Spirit]

Is there a reason people tend to name them something special even though saying "FS 180 switch smith" is enough and not cluttered? Also, how many are there?
I can think of these:
Bennet, Sugarcane, Grapefruit, Suciu, Hurricane

Someone should make a good explanation of each of the special 180 grinds because I still have no idea what they are

[ok boomer]

Barley grind

switch nosegrinds dont exist and i dont wanna hear ur conspiracy theories of how they do.

So does that mean 180 switch nosegrind is actually 180 switch 5-0? Should regular nosegrind just be called switch 5-0?

The Pupecki Grind

"Scoliosis grind", I also remember 180 nosegrinds being called euro grinds or reverse grinds depending on fs or bs

180 switch nosegrind isnt a trick, there's 180 fakie nosegrind (that most people just call 180 nose grind) and there is 180 fakie 5-0



Also frontside 180 to switch backside 50-50 is a gonz grind

[behavioralguide]

fs180 fakie 5-0 is called dieing- grind (rough translation) over here. And if you 'come back to life' it means you rotated back to regular

[tzhangdox]

Backside 180 nosegrind back to regular is called a spanish grind.

In New Zealand, backside 180 to fakie 5-0 is called a dead or alive.

[Mr. Stinky]

Also frontside 180 to switch backside 50-50 is a gonz grind

Did not know it was called that but I basically saw Gonz doing it on a curb in Video Days in my mind's eye as soon as I read it.

When I was young I "invented" the coke and Pepsi grinds. The coke or cocaine grind is a nollie to sugarcane(nose sugar). The Pepsi grind is halfcab to willy. (The fake version of the coke) they were both total dork tricks which were also no doubt done infinity times before I even knew what a skateboard was.

miko grind

Bs 180 nosegrind back to regs is a ‘Spanish’

[frankie5000]

skateboarding was made up by a bunch of 13 year old's lots of inconsistency. i wouldn't stress it too much.

True. It's much easier to say and parse "switch ollie to fakie backside 5-0"

Whats your thought process behind this statement?

As i see it, you switch ollie into a backwards front truck grind, thats a switch nosegrind.

[Coastal Fever]

Grinder?  I Barley know her.

Gnarred for fantastic dad joke.  Keep em coming slapper!

Stoked to see more mentions of "Spanish grind". That's a trick I've always done and the literal explanation name is too long, so when I noticed a bunch of Euro mags all calling them Spanish grinds I was hyped to see a consistent nickname for them. I fully back that becoming the standard name.

I absolutely back this. Any OGs who know? If you guys list them I'll collect it and then can post a new thread with the list.

Well, when it comes to 180s into sw nosegrinds then I'd be willing to accept that, but if you're rolling switch, the truck facing forward is your front truck, so a switch nosegrind makes absolute sense in that way. It would just be confusing to call it something else

[LOR]

What’s a Howard grind? I think it might be FS 180 to switch crooks or BS 180 to fakie five-o but I’m not sure.

it’s a fs 180 to switch crook but approaching backside, that’s how howard did them. like an overturned bluntslide i think. not sure if people call the frontside version that (an overturned front tail).

bs 180 fakie 5-0 is a pupecki

Well that’s the thing. In switch stance it reverses. So on switch fs overcrooks exist. Nosegrinds are only regular. Lol

[Lou Strux]

If it’s a fs180 into the grind of your choice, many PALS refer to it as an Angry Little German grind.
