cause its switched around...I thought about this for a really long time a long time ago...its still the movement of a rodeo though...Personally i think a switch rodeo 5 would look like a switch underflip the way Boyd Easely does it in FREEZE in trick tips...I think they should make everything the same though, cause its not like switch fronts are like switch backs u know?

Hey, we all know that trick as a switch rodeo, so we might as well call it that. If ya try and switch the name everyone just gets confused.
Kinda like the tail grab/toxic grab/real tail all that, ya know. Later.

I hate that they call switch tricks the opposite name. If you do a trick skiing backwards you are doing the same thing you would do forwards, so why call it something else.

some switch rodeos are actually rodeos, like tanners for example. but mike laroche's and jon olssons look more like mistys too me!

anyway, those mistyrodeos look smoother than tanners!

yes, switch rodeos are still switch rodeos, just like switch backflips are still backflips, switch frontflips are frontflips, and so on.

let's just stop saying stuff here, whenever something gets mentioned about a switch flippy spinny trick noone can agree, and we always have this discussion.

Someone wrote a thread a while ago about this stuff. Apparently the way to think about it is if you spin/flip head up the hill it is a rodeo and spin/flip head down the hill its a misty.
Thoughts?

Wow, Jurassic Bump!!!  

So since things natural spin the opposite way in the southern hemisphere, if I do a natural 270 on in Australia, would it really be an unnatural 270?
