If i throw a frontflip and a 360 on the tramp would that be considered a Misty 7 counting the flip as a 3, or just a Misty 3... Also the only difference between a corked trick and a D-spin is that your feet are above your head on a D-spin?? So when i through a cork 7 too hard and my feet are higher than my head, its actually a D-spin 7???

the second thing about the d spin is correct but really a front flip is a 360 degree rotation as well so you have to think of it that way, that is why it is considered a 7 instead of a 3

the flip is a 360 degree rotation itself, so yes, it is a misty 720. and yeah i think a dspin is a corked spin, but you exit the trick with a backflip. dont trust me on it though.

wow, for visual explanation or something- misty 7, watch douglas or szocs, d spin, either tanner or candide. you hopefuly can figure it out from there... watch them in ski movies or online in places, so much confusion

yes what you said is right. front flip and a 3 is a misty 7, because the flip is a 3 also. plus if you think about it, if you threw a misty 7 not as straight up and down, it turns into a bio 7.
as for the d spin, a d spin is defined as a cork spin to a back flip, so yeah, pretty much a cork that you get inverted after spinning some.

A dspin is NOT just an inverted cork. This is a huge mixup. A dspin is almost like a backfull if you think about it, exept the 360 is thrown really early. All a D-spin is is a cork three to off axis backflip, where the cork counts as 3 and the backflip counts as three.

Same with the misty, although mistys are usually more off axis than just a frontflip with a 360. The 3 counts as a 3 and the flip counts as three.

Ok then how do you explain a Misty 540, and also what is a bio-spin? And if a frontflip is considered 360 degrees of a misty 7 then why isnt the backflip of a D-spin the same.....Sorry about all these questions but i can throw all this stuff on the tramp, but im not sure what each thing exactly is....

The backflip of the D-spin IS the same, it counts as 360. read more closely and maybe you will get it. Also, a misty 540 is an off axis front 180, but depending on how off you throw it it can appear to have more rotation in it

Sorry cruz, i was replying to the message before i saw your response, bad timing....Anyways, this seems like everyone has a different answer to these questions, so if i throw an extremely corked 7, and come out of it as a backflip wouldnt that be a Dspin 10???

first off: DIE!!!!
second, a frontflip with a 360 is not a misty 7 it is a front full, BUT! if you do that same front full in such a manner that you roll over your shoulder and dont go inverted it IS a misty 7

This thread, and the hundreds of other 'what is this trick thread' is why NS needs a proper trick section, written by people who actually know what they are talking about, with video clips.

a textbook misty should not go inverted at all. a misty is a forward rolling spin. watch a clip of any decent misty and you can clearly see a 720 degree rotation. there is no flip therefore you cant say a flip plus a 360 is a misty 7, thats a front full and it looks gay. they are two completely different tricks. kamikazi once said this. 'think of misty as a forward rolling spin, like picture yourself running at a table, jumping onto it and landing on your back, rolling down it and rolling off the end and landing on your feet. its just like that.' i dont know shit about d-spins, so i hope that helps with mistys. just think spin before flip, not flip and spin at the same time and you shouldnt go inverted. and a bio is just a misty but more on a normal axis (not as tilted over)

a misty is pretty much a shoulder roll. i throw them by thorwing my arms diagonally down from my shoulder. depending on howmuch spin i want ill change it around a little. but for a straight misty its a shoulder roll...but since its an offaxis flip does it count towards the final degrees? adn also...yes a backflip with a 360 is a Back Full...same wiht the front

a misty is to a front flip 180 as a rodeo is to a back flip 180.

well if the backflip in a d-spin counts as 360, then tanner halls Dspin 1080 in freeze trick tips would really be a d spin 1440? would it not becasue he does 3 rotations

a d-spin is done with a toxic grab, a cork is done with a tail grab.

270oUt, let's start at the purest:

Back-full (mobius loop) - there a completely vertical backflip (360°) plus a full twist (360°) = 720°. You end up back on your feet facing the same direction. The twist usually doesn't start until half way through the flip in order to maintain the integrity of the flip.

D-spin 7 - the backflip does not go completely vertical because the twist is started earlier than in a back-full (you can see this by the third frame of Jon's sequence). Historical note: Mike D's anxiety when learning the back-full on the water ramp caused him start the twist early, hence a new trick was born.

Because the flip is not perfectly vertical, it is less than 360°, but I still need to end up back on my feet facing the same direction (720°). More twist gets added automatically (a biomechanical phenomenon known as tilt twisting). For argument's sake, let's just say the backflip component comprises 270°, then 450° needs to be made up by the twist.

Corked 7 - The backflip NEVER gets past horizontal (<180°). The rest is all twist (>540°). Since the twist is the key here, starting it very early and aggressively will ensure the flip doesn't really materialize.

If there's interest, I can add a trampoline video in the summer section demonstrating these 3 in order.
