ok so what is the trick im describing

im lazy, so while attempting a front big, i front shuved....caught it in the board slide position(90)..and rode it away switch

so

sloppy bigspin....or front 270 shuv to revert...or switch something?

what the hell is it

i know a front big is a 360 shuv and a 180 body ..... what is it called if its just a 180 shuv?

some would call it a small spin... but it looks really wierd cause the board is traveling the same direction you are. the reason big spins are hot cause the board travels a total 360 while your body goes 180 so it looks legit.

yea "small spins" just look like 180s where your feet came off the board

well im doin more than a 180 shuv........ but i couldnt tell what u would call it (small spin)

i think they would look super steezy like I/0 witha really late body 180

but the 270ish shuv.....im catching it like in the 90 ish position as its coming around for the frontbig.....so is that just sloppy or...a different trick

POPTART, well if your trying a front big and landing on it 270ish your just landing it sketchy

POPTART, to me it sounds like your doing a frontbig, let me get this straight. You pop a front 270 shuv catch it and keep on rotating to switch in the air if so then your doing a frontbig

-LoGiK-, no he just doing a front big and landing on it 270 and bring it around to 360.

its definately a sketchy front big

and a small spin is a term some people used to describe a che blanc or casteral

ive never heard of a no footed 180 being an actual trick before, its not a small spin
