Hello forum friends,
Another short video of me trying to progress down here in Uruguay.
Please take a look if you're interested.
Cheers,
Nick
Hey Toby,

I didn't event those names...they come from those who invented it.
I only invented one element, the No Handed OneFoot Spin, which I don't give a name.
All other tricks are combinations of elements.
So I use their names.
Foot Off was never used from what I now...only OneFoot and Boardoff.
But this thing with names is just without organisation...it's chaos. Many call a Backroll when it is a back rotation...a Tic Tac is a OneFoot up and down, not a Tail/Nose Spin they call it today (again, I didn't name those tricks from back then).
And I don't use new names for tricks I land first, since I will never know what it is...it's just too many. I only use what they used back then for the trick elements (Like Deadman or King Deadman (which is not a Deadman Boardoff they call it in events now...)

Someone said "Foot outs are easy if you're young, skinny, and flexible".
I replied "just get a longer board. 170cm is easy to do foot outs even if you're old, fat, and rigid as a board".
Bullying and harassment, apparently. I think I'm done with Facebook.

Thanks for taking the time to send such a detailed reply, you’re absolutely right. Hopefully, you didn’t take my last comment the wrong way, I was being genuine in terms of acknowledging your experience with different trick names. My next video (I think) will be about a double back roll where the first rotation is inverted and the second no and I finish the trick with a downloop to tell me ride away on landing. The description is a mouthful do you know if that trick has a shorter name?
Again, thanks for the feedback previously and for creating such an awesome place for viewing and sharing kite content.
Cheers, Nick
