i know what a big flip is, 180 body varial over a 3 flip. but would it still be a big flip if you did a varial kickflip, then catch it on the nose, then pivot/revert it 180?

i think it would be. just make sure to wind up an start turning backside when you do the varial or it would just be a varial kickflip late 180

Yes I suppose, but that method would be incredibly hard to do compared to a regular bigflip. And it wouldn't count if it didn't go most of the way to a bigflip. If it was just a plain varial flip, then no pivot then no.

No it wouldn't, because it would be two seperate motions, therefore a different trick. You can slide through underrotations on the ground when you land, but you can't do pivots like that without changing the nature of the trick.

MRCK said it.


It's kind of like saying a kickflip, late backfoot kickflip is a double kickflip.

actually its a 180 body FOLLOW. and if you did a varial and caught the nose, youd have to pivot, not REvert.

uhm, no its not. and mrck is talking about the full on trick, but he would be wrong if he thought the pivot didnt make it a big flip=)
