well... im not really sure what a k-fed is... but a switch up 2 out isnt really all that weird. Its just a rail/box trick. switch up is either one approaches the rail switch (backwards) or when you are on the rail and you are facing one way and then you "switch up" to be facing the other way. 2 out is short for 270 out. anything thats a single number in a trick name is short for the amount of rotation. cork 3 would be an off axis 360. Flat 5 is a flat spin 540. so on and so forth.

kfed - front swap blind 2 out
superfed - front swap blind 450 out


Alot of people say swap instead of switch up. Some weird people in quebec say sex change.


Im guessing you know what pretzel means.

Its not nice to call tricks weird...

Um there aren't really too many weird ones and they all start on NS, so just stay tuned.  Others might include Cruton and Japanical grabs which are the same thing if im not mistaken.
