I guess those ones are jokes... I think people would say "bs blur" more than "Conniption City"? Which is bs toe blur, actually. Well that one might not be a joke.... but "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" surely is :P

Jimmy Dean is a sausage company.

James Dean was an actor.

Jimmy and James are the same name.

I was jokingly making fun of you.

Get it now? :P

It's actually "Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song" although that's just an abbreviation - the full name for the move is

"Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song written, directed and starring Melvin Van Peebles and incidentally Jorden is a nub"

I just thought that abbreviating it to Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song was easier to write.

I hate the name Mofly
The trick was actually invented by a Finn before before it was named Mofly. And Teemu (is Aarnio his last name?) named it Dadada Curve.
I know Dadada Curve sucks compared with Mofly :D But I still hate Mofly-name because people don't use the real name.

And I also hate all those O'Wheely Mark (roman number) tricks! I would bet on it that Jeremy doesn't know even himself which trick has which name!! :D

that's true. Technically they are all called just called "oh wheely" - I added the mark part to make it possible to know what I mean when I say I hit oh wheely>oh wheely but I've since forgotten what was what.

:D

How many other people hit sailing genuine moves anyway? or symp furious genuine moves, or symp sailing genuine moves? - I'm sure you can quote a few names to me but they're definitely not popular stuff anyway.

I hit this trick 5 years ago. I'm pretty sure peter and ryan had hit it before I ever tried it.

:D

Incidentally "Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song" is only one syllable more than sailing same mofly: and I would always explain the move as "sailing same side mofly" so as to avoid confusion about which same side or foot - so that's the same amount of syllables.

about the meaning of "84" - it is the year of birth, but also describes the look of the move:

with pixie fairy the dexes shape an 8 around the bag, and a butterfly looks like a 4. hence 84... makes sense IMO.
