fakie flip or half cab flip

[shark tits]

i hope this doesn't further obfuscate the issue for our misguided friends in the fakie flip club.
this switch kickflip to fakie was called a 'switch bs kickflip' which is different than a switch bs flip. if you ride up a bank sideways and do a 20 degree kickflip, it's a fs kickflip. if you ride up straighter and flip more than 90 degrees it's a frontside flip [which is technically short for frontside 180 kickflip].
that halfcab flip is obviously a halfcab flip though, there's a rotation whether it's 160 or 180.

TL,DR tom penny was the illest!

i dont think anyone would if he actually did a full 180 to the right like a half cab flip and would come in straight call it a full cab flip? id call this trick a fakie flip to fakie. if he did a fakie flip to the left so he comes in straight id call it a bs half cab flip. this is a fakie flip to me. its the angle hes riding towards the bank. he doesnt spin 180 so its not a half cab flip. idiots. its all about the rotation not how someone has called it.

This doesn't make any sense at all.

it does make sense. i wouldnt call it a full cab flip if he'd spin an extra full fs 180 direction landing regular. if he would do a fakie flip with a bs 180, witch some of yall would call fakie flip, i'd call it a bs half cab flip, because he actually did some sort of rotation because of the way he skates towards the bank. he doesnt rotate at all on this bank so to me its just a simple fakie flip.

[j....soy.....]

I can't tell but it appears this obstacle isn't a hip...but if it was and he went off that corner it would be fakie.....other wise yah flat wall....fakie to fakie is half cab.

It's not a dumb question....there's no captions anymore so you just will have to come here and get shit on instead.....hey....I heard ishod say fakie frontside 180....I even accept nollie cab and fakie ollieing into switch crook.  The language is changing....

[Big Skatefase]

half cab flip.

it's really simple. just look at his trucks. he clearly does a rotation.

[j....soy.....]

Right but as I said....if it was a hip....he would still turn...but it would be fakie....so not necessarily that easy of a question.

[Alan]

You're overthinking it...

[nocomply900]

Switch nollie backside 180 flip.

[Shifty Flip]

You guys a dumb

[DISTANT RUMOURS]

Right but as I said....if it was a hip....he would still turn...but it would be fakie....so not necessarily that easy of a question.

indeed.

IF it was a hip :-)

[Molte]

This trick we will archive under "slightly insane". Coming to naming the trick, Austyn hardly rotates 90 degrees, but as he is coming up fakie and goind down fakie, this to me is a half cab flip. I can see how there could be a question of debate, if the obstacle was riden for a longer time both before and after the trick. But in this case, it's indoubtly a half cab flip, if I'm to call the case..

[brucewillis]

Fuck this thread

[Brown Thunder]

Fuck this thread

[rejectpaul]

this thread hurts my brain

[5inchDick]

IM BLOCKING WHO EVER STARTED THIS STUPID SHIT, IVE NEVER BLOCKED ANYBODY IN MY LIFE ON HERE BUT THIS SSHITS DUMB AS FUCK

IF YOU DONT TURN 180 ITS NOT A FUCKING HALF OF ANYTHING


FUCK YOU SOME OF YOU ASSHOLES SOUND LIKE FLAT EARTH PEOPLE

[Pigeon]

Whoever started this thread should have posted on Reddit instead.

[ogbawtawd]

I GUESS its a half cab but I don't feel good about it.

If I did it I would be thinking of it as doing a fakie flip.

Sorry cab, but your trick equation wasn't made for them streets homie.

This shit is a math equation with no answer cause street threw to many variables in.

Shit.

[DCLOVE]

It’s a half cab flip , I don’t get what y’all arent getting. I just watched it like 60 times. Those closest other argument is the guy equating it to the tranny side of thing with frontside and backside kickflips. If you’re coming back in to the bank the same stance you went up it can’t be a fakie flip.

alley oop fakie flip

[close]

If he went up the bank straight and did that trick its a halfcab flip, it does not matter if he approached it from an angle, he is still doing a half cab flip.

A fakie flip would be, as stated above, going up fakie, doing a kickflip and going back down regular. There is no alley-oop fakie flip happening. He's not going over anything the opposite way (which is usually what happens for a trick to be called alley-oop).

Also, just look at the god damn trick, his head, his shoulders, he is doing a half cab flip. If anyone seriously thinks this is a fakie flip it makes me doubt you have ever landed a fakie flip

you're pretty worked up over this.

[shannamal]

Here's the thing that hurts my head. His shoulders don't rotate at all. It looks like they do, but it's only to pop it. If he did this on flat, it would be called a fakie flip.

[Hypnotoad]

the only way this would be a fakie flip is in a quarter pipe channel situation he is riding parallel enough you could argue he fakie flipped but its just a bank so its a halfcabflip

Correct.  Also, Austyn did exactly what you’re describing in that grotto contest recently and people called it a fakie flip, which is probably why people are calling this one a failed flip.

[cosmicgypsies]

its a half cab flip and if you think otherwise focus your board yourself and your moms crockery collection

I think you're mistaken. Actually the idiot here is you. This is in no way a fakie flip. If you go up a bank/tranny at an angle and do a kickturn without facing straight down, is it not a kickturn but a front truck lift? You're a fucking idiot thinking this isn't a half cab flip as is everyone else who agrees with you.

[jorge]

There are some tricks you can argue over, this is not one of them.  No one who has been skating more than 2 years calls this a fakie flip.

For whatever reason people calling this a fakie flip triggers the fuck out of me

It was obviously a tragic.
