    Default What is this?

    I don't ever really think about the names of the things I make up or imitate from videos, can anyone tell me what this is?

    EDIT: Wow, the video is ****.

    Alright so I step off and kick the board up in my right hand (I'm goofy) and then turn my body FS, jump, spin the board under me, and land on it.

    Is a tiger claw not just throwing the board a full 360° and landing again?

    The trick I did, and the video showing how to do the tiger claw are two different tricks.

    Obviously not a tiger claw, unless I'm missing something.

    Your video is really hard to tell what you are doing. Does your board flip in your trick? Does it rotate only 180 degrees or a full 360? If it flips at all then I would consider a finger flip(not really well known trick, comes from freestyle) if it's only spins 180 then it is a finger flip varial, if it spins 360 degrees then it is a finger tre flip or finger 360 flip. I hope this helps

    prob just a more advanced version of one, people make up there own tricks all the time, not all of them have names, they just do them!

    Get some FPS for that camera!

    It skips a bit right into the trick; still looked like a tiger claw to me. - a little extra board flip at the end though.

    I did explain in the original post.

    Whatever, doesn't matter the name, just matters that I was stoked when I got it down.
