naming old tricks would be like naming rod lavers to nikes or somthing no body would know what your talking about. Leave them where there at , if you want to call it that fine sure but dont go expecting us to know what your talking about when you say you hit some weird ass trick name

Paul Agostinelli wrote:dada curve isnt quantum symple butterfly because the "quantum" is neither leggy, nor uptime. downtime quantum is simply miraging. therefore dada curve would be miraging symple butter, or downtime miraging symple butter.

and for god's sake yoda- pixie ripwalk? gimmie a break, its a frantic op butterfly, it isnt like the pixie is up time and the rest is down the pixie and quantum are both uptime, making it frantic, and a hell of a lot less confusing than "pixie ripwalk"

~NEL~

Ever seen how this was originally hit back in the 90s ? It wasn't. But it was being tried pixie up, and a lousy ripwalk down.

E-walk is the frantic version, or the only version of the trick really being hit.

As usual Paul demonstrates with great skill that playing footbag for six months doesn't mean you know everything about the sport.

Cameron is right.

It is false to assume people are logical - especially the old footbaggers :wink: :twisted:

edit:

so there are three seperately named moves:

pixie dada curve
toe>same in>>op in>(no plant while)op out>op clip
pixie down time ripwalk (yoda)
toe>same in>>op in>(plant)op out>op clip
pixie ripwalk (e-walk)
toe>same in>op in>>op out>op clip

It really doesn't matter if you think those should be seperate moves or not. That's just the way things are and you can't change that. You can express the opinion that haveing three seperate moves so similar is ridiculous and certainly in a shred 30 I believe that only 2 would count as unique but regardless of how people feel about it - "yoda" and "e-walk" refer to specific ways of hitting that move.

Gyro and spinning are two different components, just as inspinning and ingyro are different components.

Right foot clipper > backspin > butterfly ending on left foot clipper = gyro butterfly

right foot clipper > backspin > butterfly ending on right foot clipper = spinning butterfly

Ok thanks, but it says that syberian express is Stepping Ducking Paradox Double-Downing Osis, I thought motion doesn't get paradox or does it?
