I don't want this to turn into a huge thing, but isn't a switch rodeo really a misty while going backwards?

yes. for skiing it all depends on whether you're flipping up or down hill, not how you actually throw it. a switch rodeo 5 would be called a fakie misty in rollerblading. it's weird.

Essentially yes because a sw misty is basically a 180 into a misty

But in TJ Schiller's Rodeo 5 tutorial he says to tackle forward like you would hitting a guy in football.Not backwards?

 But I've heard for a misty you punch the baby and go forward....

Didn't want you giving him wrong info


Rodeo: Throw your arm down to where you would grab japan, drop your shoulder and kick your leg.
It's like a backflip and lincoln? Didn't really understand it until I did it on the tramp.

Misty is pretty much a front flip and a spin.
Throw your arm to your opposite knee and follow with your head and follow through to your feet.
