yeah thats what it is a.k.a underflip. Parky Rodney Mullen invented them, but alot of skaters do them (well maybe more freestylers). Watch his section in opinion and he does a nose hook impossible underflip.

an underflip isn't a kickflip that goes half around and then goes back in mid air lol. an underflip is were u spin the board with the back foot

yea seriously. but i can do the things where it goes half way around then you kick it back. its easy you just dont take your front foot out of the way. well its not EASY i can land like one out of 20 if i really want to sit there and work on it

it MIGHT be called a half flip. I was flipping through one of my magazines and I saw matias ringstrom to a half flip to late shoveit in a advertisement. Maybe I'll post it later, I'll see if I can get a camera.

Parky, what you are referring to there is a backfoot flip.

greg van wagnen, ok break the trick down Nose hook impossible is where you hook your foot under the nose and do an impossibe, but this is a special impossible that involves a flip but instead of doing a flip all the way he kicks it back around.

Frederick, does it count as a kickflip underflip if it's only a half flip? I always thought a kickflip underflip required a full kickflip, and then a full underflip.

a ickflip underflip can be a half flip. I am pretty sure all it invovles is a flip goin one way stopping the flip and flipping it the opposite direction, i don't think it really matters too much if it is a whole flip or half a flip.

what frederick is describing[nose hook impossible] i have heard as a casper flip. my friend can do them and thats what he calls them

jer_d, dude i remember wat cam used to do in elementary school.

A kickflip underflip is a kickflip and then as its coming around for the double kickflip kick it back around. So yeah medic is right.

Frye, casper flip is a thps trick. its not a true trick. But if they were considered to be a trick it would be a flip out of casper im pretty sure.

well my friend does something where he like half kickflips then goes into casper position (still in the air) then flips it around like an impossible and lands on it

Ya, a kickflip underfilp is half a spin one way and then you kick it back the other. So the board never spins all the way around.

I can do the "casper flip" thingy but I doubt that's what it's called; more like a half-flip late shuvit kind of thing. (They're not very hard.) I could be wrong though and be thinking of something different. As for the kickflip underflip or whatever it's called, when I've seen Rodney Mullen do them he does 1 1/2 flips and then flips the board back halfway so that he can land on the griptape. That's it, no more involvement in this discussion for me.
