Terradon, just guess.

Post by beenjammin »

I know the footbag community is not really for renaming moves, but I was thinking today. If a ss toe barrage is called a terrage, then why wouldnt a dod (ss from toe of course) Be called a terradon, because its like a ss toe paradon? Down double down and double overdown are lame names.

if you want to call it that go for it, but as its been tried before.....your ideas will be smashed by the community as a whole, and it will stay being called Dod er whatever by the majority of its members :P

good luck though ;)

personally I think double pixie clipper should be caller terradon, cool name btw. Double over down is just used way too much to be changed.

Terradon is already the name of another move, i think named by Daryl Genz, but i cant remember the actual move itself.

Terradon would have been a good name for Terraging Double Down.

I didn't know there was a move already called that, does anyone know what it is?

Checked it out, the move is actually called Pteradon (as in the flying dinosaur), pronounced exactly the same as Terradon. So the name is effectively taken already.
FYI, Pteradon is Paradon caught in Dragon stall instead of Clipper.

Pteradon is indeed paradon ending on dragon. Genz was hitting this over 10 years ago, and the name has been around at least as long. I think Genz invented it.
