Ok I am relatively new to skiing, and I know that this is going to sound really stupid, but could someone tell me what the difference is between all of these off-axis tricks? Like rodeo, corked, bio, cab? Yea stuff like that?

a bio is like a cork but your head is facing to the landing instead of the take off

Cork is more of a back flip based off axis rotation, bio is front flip based... dont get me wrong, your not flipping, your just spinning that direction off axis... Cab is Switch ( riding backwards ) Rodeo is a backflip with spins. Misty is a frontflip with spins..

cork - off axis spin, head facing towards the lip.

bio - opp of cork, head facing towards landing (neither go inverted)

rodeo - off axis spinning lincoln

misty - shoulder roll you could say (imagine shoulder rolling over a picnic table)

underflip - 90 - uphill lincoln - 90

overflip - 90 - downhill lincoln - 90 (looks alot like a misty)

switch/fakie/cab - switch
