The List Revealed

	Rodeo 540 A Backflip Rodeo 540 made by Diapereater, a US citizen snowboarder also fan of wake boarding. This trick consists on turning backside while spinning your deck 540° around your body. You actually land switch, Travis Rice loves this trick and according to him, you need a serious speed to pull it off! Check the amateur video
	720° Rotation A 720 is a nice trick to do on a smooth ramp not too steep. Just take some speed, jump off on a long aerial line and be ready to turn. The key is to ease and conduct your turn with your arms and head and the body with the board will follow. Check the 720 Video
	Mc Twist The McTwist gathers several tricks in just one and that is making it real cool! You will need a kind of lip such as in the pipe to jump off and reach a certain height but you also must know what you are doing and you should already be comfortable with landing 540 and turning front side. Achieved by Ezehkiell, a Sweden fellow freestyler! Check the McTwist Video
	StaleFish A nice Grab trick every freestylers have tried and landed. You don't need to jump off high to make it but it will look much more cool on big air. Boning the leg yields the body to be in a nice position with the board but please take care of the other hand! Check the StaleFish Video
	Melon A simple grab every kids land quickly. It's an easy one but a few details can make it look great and also this grab is oftenly used inside other combo tricks; for instance make a 720 grabbing melon! Check the Melon Video
	Method Another easy yet indispensable trick to have in your portfolio! It has been taken on tape very often on pro riders, magazines love it. You can launch it anytime you jump off either from the pipe lip or a bump. The slight body twist is making the difference between rookies and experts. Check the Method Video
	Slob Air A great feeling guaranteed when you go high and you are on a long grab trick! The photo features a funny slob air, the guy does not grab on the toe edge (a bit far imo) and the board should not move, the body should bend on the deck, not the contrary! Check the Slob Air Photo
	Buttering Basically butters are nose press or tail press, I enjoy them a lot and on flat I'm used to alternate nose and tail press, this way you make ollies and landing to gain speed! Do a tail butter while full speed and you will look great but make sure your rear leg will not blurt out. Check the Video featuring butters
	BS Truck Driver Do it once and you will do it over and over again! You better know how to spin backside in order to success. Once you know that then simply grab the board with your 2 hands! But that's not all... Check the 720 BS Truck Driver
	Flying Squirrel Ready for a long trip into the air, floating like a squirrel? Then this trick is for you but watch out, you need to get high to get high! More about the Flying Squirrel
