Yeah. That’s legitimately a different trick. I’d call it a kickflip Late body varial. It’s ok they counted them as equivalent, but they’re two observably different things. For that matter: As body varials are the opposite of shuvs, ...and late shuvs are categorically different from shuvs, ...then Late body varials in general are categorically different from body varials (and a fairly unexplored category of trick I bet we’ll eventually see some deeper exploration of)

I mean Alex finished with a bunch of tricks he knew Jamie couldn’t do, that’s the thing about games with people who have such specialized trick selection. If Jamie would have just done front foot impossible variations or grape flip type tricks, he would have won.

The inward heelflip by Decunha at 8:10 looks more like a pressure flip than a heelflip
@Khelldon2 жыл бұрын
yeah a lot of people do them that way... hardflips too.. Seems that the popular opinion is that one cares how you made it flip that way as long as it flips correctly. I think this should matter in a game of skate for sure but again, popular opinion wins. Elis Frost does his tres with his back foot only, almost like an underflip.. they are still considered tre flips.

@@noobg6908 i can do both, and this is definitely an inward heel. No one will do a pressure flip with the front foot on "heel flip side". Pressure flip is done using only your back foot so your front foot needs to get out of the way.

@@SanderVandeWiel i know the difference between a inward heel and a pressure flip,but i also know when someone is cheating a inward,in order to do a inward heel your heel needs to flick in the nose,if you are flicking down theres no way you can manipulate your board with your front foot wich means all the rotation is being made by the back foot wich means its a pressure flip,if you see the video in slow motion you will see that his front foot doesnt manipulate the board in any way so thats a pressure,anyway this game is not that competitive so thats fine

I think Alex’s trick was technically an anti big inward heel. We know it’s an anti spin because the board does a 180 and the body does a 360 in the same direction. And the heel is technically inward because it flips in the same direction as the spin. Pretty nuts. Especially first try wtf
