a cork is more spinny than flippy. a flat spin is more flippy than spinny. a rodeo is more flippy and spinny than just flippy or spinny.

a cork you don't go upside down. You just get off axis. rodeo is similar to a flat 3 but less flippy and a 540+ rotation

all flat spins are rodeos, but not all rodeos are flatspins

Rodeos are on the same axis as corks (bring the hate)

Corks and rodeos are thrown back, like an off-axis backflip (except you don't go as far upside-down as a d-spin), and flatspins are thrown sideways, like an off-axis lincoln loop.

Corks and rodeos are nowhere near the same axis, sure their both set back, but a rode/flat you send your chest upwards and around, versus a cork where you set it to the ground and around I.e. 180 to misty is how a lot of people think about it

in a cork 3 you spin facing the ground, in a flat 3 you spin facing the sky, a rodeo is an inverted flat

If you can do a good and try flat 3 than it's technically not a flip.

Cork the persons shoulder will dip on takeoff the same side that they are spinning.

Rodeo the opposite shoulder of spin direction will drop on takeoff.

Flat the opposite shoulder just doesn't drop as much a rodeo.
