In the poll it says fakie/backflip and I interpret that as fakieflip or
backflip because they are pretty much the same thing. If there was a
fakieflip competition then in my opinion you wouldn't be able to enter
since you can backflip and its pretty much the same trick. It obviously
wouldn't be up to me because I am not running or participating in the
comp but that would make sense to me.

Hmm....I guess...But you dont think other people who voted in the
fakie/backflip can already do a rolling backflip? I think they could,
but maybe not I dont mind if I dont have to be in the comp, but if I
could, I would.

Spencer is correct here. I put fakieflips and backflips together because
I feel that if there was a comp for backflips you could do them fakie
or rolling forward and both ways would count as the same trick.

Aslo if you look at the poll, nothing is even close to doubleflips. I
think its safe to say that is that trick we will be competing to land.

Too simple.. the difficulty of that trick is not even close to the same

Looks like doubles is catching the most interest.

If everyone do doubles, they wont be nice anymore, you need to get out
of the standars.

well I didnt say that myself. I meant that doubles were catching the
most interest for the trick comp.

So what would be out of the standards? Surely not a backroll. I dont
see to many people doing 360 flips. Thats what I wanted. But doubles
works for me. Its something I should be able to do but have not been
motivated enough to push myslef.... thats why these comps are good.

Think about some of the other comps that have happened. Crankflip, 3
spin, hickflip..... these are not crazy original tricks that no one is
doing. They are trick all street riders should have no problem doing.
These comps get us all out and learning tricks that should be in our
"bag of tricks".

Only one person actually completed the super wrap comp. That trick is
far from standard and hardly anyone followed through with it.
