What trick is this?

Last night when i was trying to do a pendulum i accidentally discovered how to do this trick,But I was wondering if it would even be considered a trick or just style?

For example, if i do the half pendulum trick into a mirage like i did in the video, would that be considered a type of set or two separate tricks? Also if i do a mirage/legover(or any other toe trick) and land it in the half pendulum swing instead of a normal toe, would that be a different form of a mirage and have a different name, or would it be a more "stylie" way of doing it? Someone just clear up the confusion for me...

i came across those myself, I think the more extension you get on it, the sicker it feels

An extended toe stall.
I don't think it's a trick.

but what if i do it xbd like i would for a xbd rake? would that be like an anti xbd rake or something like that? i cant see how it couldnt be considered a trick then.

im also working on making a set out of it. instead of doing a pendulum i just set it behind my back and then i turn around and do a mirage or something like that.

Its a kind of carry.....much like a wrap-around. I don't think there is a technical name for it, it is what it is.

it's almsot a pendulous set... you could probably find it on here if u do a search for pendulous by evan lovely.

I think its just a style toe stall.

Does it need to have a name?

If it's fun and feels cool, then do it.

It's not a real move, it's just silly

But hey, if you dig it, do it!

I love it. That's one of the VERY first tricks I learned following a toe stall. I liked it so much better thatn a Pendulum because it was like a faky.

It's a Rake. It would be cleaner if you'd catch it more from your side.

NOTE: I didn't say xbd.

I'd call it a extended-swinging ship-toerake

i can't believe I've never ever seen someone do that before. Whoever says that's not a trick is a victim of job's notation

i thought it was super styley, and I think it would be great great GREAT for routines because you can do it so rhythmically, and it's so easy to make it work for different rhythms.

cool move.

I can't answer your question, though. doesn't have a name as far as I know.

that actually fits the definition of pendulum better than the move we now know as pendulum, though. now that I think about it.

Call it a Super Manalapan Toe Stall.

thanks for clearing everything up, or what you could clear up for that matter. I agree with Matt Cross, I think that it shud be considered a type of trick although it dusnt leave your foot and it just seems styley.

Im thinking about calling it psyche cuz its like a psycheout pendulum... and i could use it when naming a trick by saying for example a psyche mirage instead of a normal mirage because it is obviously different and more challenging. And also if i do it xbd like i would for a xbd rake it cud juss be called a xbd psyche.

Im also really close to making a set out of it where it goes behind my back instead of over my head. When i perfect this it could be called a psyche set and it would open up an entire new realm of tricks ahah. Yesterday i almost hit a psyche set legover and butterfly.

ill try and post a video once i get my new camera...i just sold my old one on ebay.
