Lets see if we can have a serious conversation on this site. I have recently been learning new terms I have never heard of before (mostly thanks to SLVSH), cuban grab, venom grab, super elusive.

If anyone knows the actual story behind how a certain term came to be, I think we would all love to know.

Start emailing the guys who invented the tricks. Would be an awesome project.

Pretty sure Lincoln loops were created by some guy with the last name of Lincoln, like Charles Lincoln or some shit.

Maybe big Abe shreded the gnar and made his own trick, most this stuff is top secret government classified information anyways, OP will probs be kidnapped by the NSA

270 on was named because of the 270 degree rotation you must make to get onto the rail
