FRONTSIDE / BACKSIDEFor fuck's sake... I honestly can't stand preachy articles, or 'thought pieces' with one twat's opinion forced onto the world, but seriously, enough is e-fuckin'-nough.
I understand that those that have not been skateboarding long may find the nomenclature of trick terminology a lot to take in at first, and that is completely fine. But with the rise of social media, the confused children that we all once were are now spending their nights arguing with elderly skate nerds, professionals, industry heads, and sometimes even the trick creators themselves about what trick is called what. Today, however, I am not here to pick apart the fact that a fucking ollie one-foot is not called a fucking ollie north, nor am I going to get pedantic and underline yet again that any type of varial always uses a hand, making your shitty surfy/chainwallet flip in fact a shove-it flip, and not a varial flip. No, no, today is about one thing, and one thing that should be VERY simple to understand. Frontside and backside. |
