I'm not sure if ducking and diving would fall under dexterities. Body would be more like it, I think. Either way, you still hit 2 cool new moves, props.

yeah i was assuming they were dexes since they are described like it. in dex or out dex.

either way it was awesome to see that bag land on a leg over or butterfly it just feels like instict i never in my wildest dreams thought i could do something like that its like every week i hit a trick that gives me that feeling. I FUCKING LOVE THIS SPORT.

that (temporarily) ends when you're learning flipside pixie (at least for me).

Just wanted to be as pessimistic as I always use to be

I remember my first clear double dex was a double legover, but back then my technique was so shit so it was kinda like quantum leg over stlye..

But my first double dex with the same foot going the same way, was a double atw

I remember my first double dex trick - originally I thought was a Pixie Legover but much later learned that it was more of a SS DLO. It felt totally wicked!

Then there was my first triple dex trick, Pixie DoD and shortly after Pixie Paradon.

I'm still waiting for my 4 dexer!

My first double dex was either DATW-in, or the exact same "sameside dlo" that Byrin was explaining. When I finally learned pixie (after, like, 2 years, probably) I think I hit parkwalk first (maybe, after smear, though, because clippers took me FOREVER).

Props on the bothsidedness! It makes me happy that you're excited to hit tricks both sides!! My first triple was smog, I think. It was a year after learning pixie...I think I hit pigbeater really soon after. I remember how exciting that was!!!

Just wait. Once you're on a roll with the double dexes, they just keep coming faster until you're able to do too many tricks to keep track of! IT'S AWESOME!!!!!!

I guess smog, glucoma and pixie parradon must be the easiest 3dex moves there are.
Glaucoma was my first.

Blurriest is easier? I probably should'nt have made that assumption based on the fact every other stepping move I can think of, the pixie versoin is much eaisier.
I guess i've come closer to hitting blurriest than I have pix paradon, but that could be because I dont do pixie sets :o

hmm, I tend to hit blurriest more than pixie paradon - but I really couldn't say which is easier - blurrier and pixie over down are about the same difficulty of those moves as well in my opinion. Fusion is a tiny bit harder, plasma is way harder than fusion and kiwi is ridiculous. I don't think I've hit any other uptime dex to double down apart from that. Oh pixie fusion is about as hard as plasma - maybe slightly harder but still easier than kiwi.

Wow...I find pixie paradon much easier, but maybe that's because my stepping set isn't as high as my pixie set.

First single: Atw
First double: Smear or dimwalk
First triple: Sailing SS Mirage (Pixie Tap)
First quadruple: Pixie Mofly (Pixie miraging symposium double over down) It was very borderline clean.

And no, ducking does not qualify as dexing, though sometimes, it feels so much like a dex. But dexterity should only refer to your legs, and not your head.

My first double dex was crispy DLO, which I just learned about a couple weeks ago. My dimwalk is getting closer and closer. Hopefully I'll hit it when I'm shredding with Crowley today.
