They release their free side too soon and it forces the edge to change from outside (lutz) to inside (flip)Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087069977867729538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-466093691926458332.post-78993535258540044132011-01-04T20:21:52.370-06:002011-01-04T20:21:52.370-06:00The jumps are differetiated by entrance edge, take...The jumps are differetiated by entrance edge, take off foot/picking foot and landing edge. If you are a counter clockwise spinner (the majority), a toe loop is entered on a right back outside edge, picked with the left toe and landed on a right outside edge. A flip is entered on a left back inside edge, picked with the right foot and landed on a back right outside edge. A lutz is the same as a flip but the entrance edge is an outside edge instead of inside. The rotation in the air is counter clockwise in all jumps. Personally at speed I can't tell the difference between a flip and lutz when I'm watching.<br /><br />Silver BladesBaffledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16763003920036754454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-466093691926458332.post-81968829302831216552011-01-04T06:40:51.494-06:002011-01-04T06:40:51.494-06:00Super sad- Roller Boogie is not available on Netfl...Super sad- Roller Boogie is not available on NetflixAlexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087069977867729538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-466093691926458332.post-75061554446954763802011-01-03T21:58:07.674-06:002011-01-03T21:58:07.674-06:00Yeah, they all look like flippy things to me.

Previously he called every jump that double flippy thing. "Go faster when you do that double flippy thing!" To be fair all of my jumps do look the same. I look nervously around me, slow to an almost complete stop, and sort of hop around.

Time well spent. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbfRRXHqLm8Skate Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14099319126365762647noreply@blogger.com
