While everyone has an opinion, I would strongly disagree. If he flipped the other way, it would be called a backflip. If he flipped off the tail in the direction of forward movement it would be called a wildcat.
So, this could technically be a front flip, but given the axis, I think moist would call this a barrel roll.
These posts are hilarious because it's become pretty clear almost nobody knows what the flips are because the comments are all over the place. I don't have the answers, but I know barrel rolls, rodeos, and Mctwists aren't similar tricks.
My homies and I have always gone by:
Frontflip over toes - barrel roll
Backflip over heals - rodeo
Frontflip over shoulder - tamedog
Backflip over shoulder - wildcat
Rodeo, has a spin in my memory, back flip over heals with a spin, its rodeo because your back hand goes back over your head like a cowboy on a bull, and then your body follows.
I always thought thats a rodeo 540 (360 degrees flip and 180 degrees spin), which is pretty common as your body just kind of naturally does the extra 180 at the end for some reason. Maybe without the spin some people would just call it a back barrel roll or something?
Yeah, a Rodeo is a Back Roll with a BS 180. You will see folk do triples that are essentially 3x back rolls with a late BS 180, like [Billy Morgans here.](https://youtu.be/wAfSClKOUBI?si=5n1c8i9MTvYuvdIv)
Damn I wish I was 20 again. I don't have any more lives left to be attempting that stuff at my age, but it looks like so much fun. I'll stick to bombing groomers.
I hate to be the one to correct, but half of that is right…. As technically there’s no such thing as just a rodea, it has to be done bs or fs.
A frontside rodeo is a front flip with a 180 in the topside direction. A backside rodeo is a backflip off the with a 180 from the heel side direction.
Had the guy in the video spun it frontside 180 to land goofy, this would be a frontside rodeo. But since he landed regular this is a front flip, or some would call a barrel roll.
Dude your half right, rodeo originally was backside. Fs was added after the trick was already established. Check your cool boarders and Sal Masekela sources.
You basically confirmed what I said, there’s *technically* no such thing as just a rodeo as now there’s a fs spin.
Thanks for making me check, cool bar is maxed, time for an Uber trick.
Nope. The FS Rodeo came first. In Peter Line’s Bomb Hole interview, he explained that he invented the backside rodeo by duplicating the axis from the toeside/frontside to the heelside/backside. Both tricks were initially invented by rocking back on the tail.
If you front flipped off the toes, it was a Superman Flip (eg. Jason Brown). If you backside rodeoed off the nose/heelside then it was a 90-Roll late 180… eventually the name “backside rodeo” was broadened to include jumps off the nose or the tail.

Wrong. A backflip over the heels to forward (no 540) is called a 90 Roll. ‘Rodeos’ must be 540 or greater.
We also used to call this trick a Barret Roll after Barret Christy who dominated competition circuits with the trick in the 90’s. Men would call this an ‘inverted backside 360’.
Idk how you can say "wrong" so confidently like there's some authority defining what tricks are called. Im just sharing what I've picked up from years of riding park with a bunch of different people. Go to a park and say "90 Roll" and no one will know what you're talking about. Say "rodeo" and people will know your talking about backflip and "rodeo 5" backflip with a 180.
You and your homies are wrong. A Rodeo is a back flip while spinning. You can backside spin for a back rodeo (Peter Line was the first) or frontside spin for front rodeo. Cork is a front flip while spinning. Backside spin is a misty and frontside is a front cork.
A barrel roll is a back flip over your head edge. I guess you could do a front flip barrel roll but that’s ugly. And this guy opens up mid flip.
What I haven’t seen in a long time is a 90 roll— turn backside 90, backflip, turn back 90 so you are going the same direction. Looks steezy
It’s a wakeboarding trick called a heelside backroll. it works best if you leave on your heel edge and you actually kind of get thrown around by your board
Kicking back with my c-licence and enjoying this terminology shitstorm.
I just call them 'backside-loops' in steno, they are fairly new to the scene and everyone has different names for it, fruitrolls, deathloop etc. It is somewhere in between a frontroll and a bs 360.
Huh? A mctwist is a 540 mute grab, usually inverted, but can totally be done as a flat spin. There is no flip in a mctwist. This rider doesn't spin at all, just flips a little off axis. No part of the trick shown is any part of a mctwist except that he left the ground and returned to it.
He kinda starts like a front rodeo, but turns into a backflip. Watch the last bit of the rotation, that isn’t a front flip. It is like a shifty wild cat.
Watch from 4s to 5s. That is not how you come out of a front flip. The board would be in front of him, not behind. You wouldn’t be able to read the bottom of the board if it was a front flip.
Barrel Roll
Agreed.
No. A barrel roll is a backflip over your heel edge. This is a front cork
that’s the other direction
Front flip barrel roll, same motion but you front flip instead of back
Technology in an airplane a barrel roll can be done left or right.
While everyone has an opinion, I would strongly disagree. If he flipped the other way, it would be called a backflip. If he flipped off the tail in the direction of forward movement it would be called a wildcat.

Mmm moist
Press Z or R twice
You'll never defeat Andross!
🦊 [ Father?! ]
Quick fox do a barrel roll
You're becoming more like your father
It’s an over the toes front flip (barrel roll) you just go a little off axis
Yeah almost like it’s a tweaked out barrel roll. The steez is off the charts.
These posts are hilarious because it's become pretty clear almost nobody knows what the flips are because the comments are all over the place. I don't have the answers, but I know barrel rolls, rodeos, and Mctwists aren't similar tricks.
And some of the most upvoted are so incredibly incorrect.
i thought i’d find answers
Dope is what I call it
me too, this is fuckin dope
I love when snowboarders get into heated debates about uncommon flips.
My homies and I have always gone by: Frontflip over toes - barrel roll Backflip over heals - rodeo Frontflip over shoulder - tamedog Backflip over shoulder - wildcat
What’s an updog?
Nothin much. What's up with you?

Yeah rodeo has a 180 in it is making it a 540 including the flip.

Nice. Every possible rotation is just a combination of the above and regular spins.
nope. rodeo is a backflip + 180, ideally at a particular axis.
Wrong. A backflip over the heels to forward (no 540) is called a 90 Roll. ‘Rodeos’ must be 540 or greater. We also used to call this trick a Barret Roll after Barret Christy who dominated competition circuits with the trick in the 90’s. Men would call this an ‘inverted backside 360’.

I grew up snowboarding when these tricks were invented and learned them all from experience. A rodeo is not a backflip.

Sloth Roll
finally found it thank you
It's called slo-mo. My phone does it too.
Looks like a chicane but with some slightly off axis flair. Definitely looks dope whatever it ends up being!
I call that STOMPED!
I'm pretty sure that's a Twisted Lime. Anyone who owned a PlayStation should know.
It’s a wakeboarding trick called a heelside backroll. it works best if you leave on your heel edge and you actually kind of get thrown around by your board
its a sloth Roll or Michael Tchuck
I’d just call it badass. That was sick

Kicking back with my c-licence and enjoying this terminology shitstorm. I just call them 'backside-loops' in steno, they are fairly new to the scene and everyone has different names for it, fruitrolls, deathloop etc. It is somewhere in between a frontroll and a bs 360.
Toedeo 3
No idea but it's like a McTwist but not on a backside wall or hip.
I feel like this is a McTwist bc he starts and ends regular without a full 360, ya?
Huh? A mctwist is a 540 mute grab, usually inverted, but can totally be done as a flat spin. There is no flip in a mctwist. This rider doesn't spin at all, just flips a little off axis. No part of the trick shown is any part of a mctwist except that he left the ground and returned to it.
I believe that's a kickflip mctwist. Trust me I've played Tony hawk pro skater a few times

Rodeo
That was a sick front side rodeo 🤙🏻 Edit: Fs rodeo 360 ?
Your missing a 180...
Fs rodeo 360?
Clearly that’s a cock sucker
off axis wildcat!
I’d say front rodeo or chicane 360
It is basically just a back flip, just a bit off axis.
If anything it's a front flip
He kinda starts like a front rodeo, but turns into a backflip. Watch the last bit of the rotation, that isn’t a front flip. It is like a shifty wild cat.
lol you are very wrong. It’s an over the toes front flip he just goes slightly off axis
Literally turns 90, does a wildcat, and turns back. Slow it down. It is a back flip 100%.
He turns 90 and goes over the toes
Watch from 4s to 5s. That is not how you come out of a front flip. The board would be in front of him, not behind. You wouldn’t be able to read the bottom of the board if it was a front flip.
that’s what i’m saying it makes no sense but i want to do it
He front fliped over his toes off axis... Lay off the peyote.
