Flat land basically includes all kinds of skateboarding done on a flat surface, with no obstacles. you can think of doing simple tricks on these flat grounds, like kickflips, or if you are MRCK or just have skills, better tricks. Also you can see most freestyle trick are included, since you mostly do your freestyle trick without any obstacles.

Flatground commonly refers to the performance of flip, grab or other tricks on a flat surface, without the use of obstacles such as rails, boxes or stairsets. The only things necessary are a skateboard and a place to skate, like a garage, street, or an empty parking lot.

Flatground is basically just that flat land, with no obstacles. Any tricks done one flat ground, whether its a flip trick, grab, or freestyle. It is considered a flatground trick. This style of skateboarding uses no rails or ramps. Just the plain old flat ground. This is the most common style of skateboarding. Since it can be done anywhere.

technical flatground skateboarding is the performance of complicated maneuvers on flat ground; meaning that there are no ramps, rails, or any obstacles of any kind except a person and their skateboard

this i think its the mean of freestyle and flatland

Flatground -

No obsticles, just skating and enjoying it without skating on a certain object. Usually freestylers, MRCK (and his sets for GOS's) are good examples of creative flatground.

So to sum it all up, flatground is a form of skateboarding without any obsticles. Just you and your skateboard.
