	A '''flip trick''' is a type of ] ] in which the ] flips in a particular way. In many tricks, the skateboard flips upside down and/or end over end. Many tricks can be combined to form more complex flip tricks. Flip tricks are usually performed while the skateboarder is rolling, although it is not unusual to find newer skateboarders practicing these tricks while stationary.

			Though this post will obviously be reversed before anyone can fix it.
	Most tricks do not have specific names in the system of skateboarding flip tricks. You have the basics, kickflip, heelflip, frontside and regular Pop shuv-it. Though most of the simple combinations have names, like varial kickflip, hardflip, inward heelflip, varial heelflip, most can be described simply by using rotation math and the basic name. (i.e. Frontside 360 heelflip, 360 kickflip)

			Many children keep making up false information and fake tricks on this page, then naming themselves as the creator.
	Skateboarding terminology is a sort of 'jargon' as many terms in skateboarding can be used to reference more than one trick.
	(i.e. 360 kickflip) 360 Pop shuv-it with a kickflip. A tre flip is also known as a Treflip. Not to be confused with a Kickflip 360, which is a kickflip with only the body doing the 360 motion, or full cab flip (Fakie).

	:Invented by ], a 360 Flip is a skateboarding trick in which the skateboarder does a 360 Pop Shuv-it, kicks the board to initiate a kickflip and spins the board in a 360 shuv-it, thereby doing a kickflip and 360 Pop shuv-it simultaneously.

	;''360 Heelflip / ]''
	:The Laserflip is more than the opposite of a 360 flip. Lesser known than the 360 flip, many skaters consider the Laserflip to be much harder than the 360 Flip mainly because the 360 frontside Pop shuv-it involved rotates behind the skater. This can be awkward. This trick is handled by the skater scooping the board outward,when the 90 degree angle is reached the person must flick their front foot out in a heelflip manor to give the board extra rotation. Jumping back with legs high will also increase rotation. Problems include the board landing beside the skater,this can be fixed by following the board.another problem is not enought rotation or flick,this can be fixed by either foot placement or force of scoop and flick.<ref>{{cite web

	;''Gazelle flip''
	:A 360 flip with a body 360 in the same direction. (Actually Called Bigger Flip)



	;Ghetto Bird
	:A nollie hardflip with a late backside 180 usually performed as a quick revert. This trick was created by Kareem Campbell.

	;Half Cab
	:A fakie 180.

	;Half Cab Flip
	A fakie backside or frontside flip.

	;Haslam flip''
	A varial kickflip but when the board is in the half kickflip spot, the board is kicked into a kickflip to land.

	;''Haymaker''
	:Invented and commonly done by Stevie Williams. It's a pop shuv-it late fs 180. When it's a pop shuv-it body varial it's called a William air as invented by Maalik Williams. People do pop shuv's late fs reverts it still counts as a haymaker,and they are not named shuv-its rewind

	;'']''
	<!-- Image with unknown copyright status removed: ] -->
	:A Hardflip is a frontside pop shove-It with a kickflip. Because this trick is awkward to execute it sometimes appears to move vertically through the legs. <ref>{{cite web

	;'']''
	:A heelflip is the same as a kickflip, only the board spins toe-side (towards the toes). For a regular skater (left foot in front) the board spins clockwise from the perspective of one behind the skater. Again, there is a kick as part of the ollie but unlike the kickflip it is directed forward and outwards away from the rider's toe side (diagonal), so that the last part of the foot to leave the board is the heel, hence the name. <ref>{{cite web

	}}</ref>Instances of multiple spins are named according to how many spins are completed (e.g. double, triple, etc.).


	;Inward Heelflip
	:An Inward Heelflip combines a ] with a heelflip. The name comes from the rider's point of view, because while doing an Inward Heelflip, the 180 degree rotation of flip moves the board inward instead of outwards as in a varial heelflip. It does not go through your legs. Jeff Lenoce (not the inventor) is well known for executing this trick in all stances.

	;'' Jaffa Flip''
	A fakie 180 pop-shove it late flip. Invented by "Jaffa" Silochan

	;]
	:Invented by Rodney Mullen in 1983, this trick came about as a failed attempt at the new trick he had created, the flatland Ollie. He noticed that if he ollied and dragged his feet off the board, it would flip. Kicking or flicking out imparts enough force to flip or spin the board on an imaginary axis running from the nose to the tail. If flicked harder, two or more full flips can be imparted on that axis, these are called double, triple, quadruple, etc. kickflips. The original name for this trick after conception was the "magic flip" because no one understood how it worked or flipped except Louie Barley.<ref>{{cite web

	;'''Laser Flip'''
	:A frontside 360 heel-flip.

	;''Late Kickflip''
	:A kickflip or heelflip (late heel, much more uncommon) performed at the highest peak of an ollie.

	;''Late shuv-it''
	: Its when you get a big ollie and once leveled (or on the way back to the floor) you shove frontside or backside with your front foot (frontside is more common and is easier).

	;''Merlin Twist''
	A switch Front Foot impossible 180. Created by Seattle skater Cory Kennedy.

	;Mystic Flip
	:A varial kickflip in which the rider does a 180 (body turn) in the opposite direction.

	;Nerd Flip
	: A nollie under hard flip. This is a combination of a front side pop shove it, then doing an under flip with your back foot.

	;Nightmare flip
	: Pop Shuv-it with a Double Kickflip.

	;]
	:An ollie off the nose of the board. Any trick can be performed nollie. A common misconception among younger riders is that nollie is similar to fakie. When performing a nollie trick frontside is still frontside as is backside as if you are still riding in your regular stance. Fakie is meant to imply rolling backwards as if still riding regular. An example would be the a Nollie frontside pop shove-it which is performed as if doing a switch backside shove-it, only riding backwards.

	;Nollie Kickflip
	: A nollie flip is when the rider flips the board much like a rider would do a kickflip except it is performed while doing a nollie.

	;Impossible
	Where the board completes one rotation by rolling around the skater's back foot, in much the same manner as spinning a ] with one's hand. It is considered good style to make the board flip as vertical as possible. If the board spins laterally or comes off the back foot, it tends to end up looking more like a 360 Pop Shuv-it. This trick can also be done with the front foot. That is called a "Front foot impossible".<ref>{{cite web

	;]
	:Simple, basic pop with a scoop turning the board only in a 180 degree

	;Pop Shuv-it Late flip
	:A Pop Shuv-it Late flip is when the rider does a pop shuv-it then after the board rotates 180° the rider kicks the board down fliping it before landing.

	;Pressure flip (only if you're an a holeflip)
	:Any flip trick that gains its rotational direction from the same foot that popped the nose or tail. Pressure flips are executed using a scooping technique. Nate Sherwood is well-known for his extensive array of pressure flip tricks.<ref>{{cite web

I am an Amateur skateboarder who rides for several companies.

Though this post will obviously be reversed before anyone can fix it.

Many children keep making up false information and fake tricks on this page, then naming themselves as the creator.

Please find consult with a company before re posting this page.

This page should be locked and deleted immediately as it is riddled with vandalism, constantly.

All of my previous efforts to correct the problem have been erased by kids who keep laying claim to tricks they did not invent nor even ever accomplish.
