that looks like a cork cab 5 to me. an underflip is supposed to basically be a backflip 180. aka do a switch backflip that turns 90 to flip then land regular.

corked cab 5.

this is a cork 5, no invert, it was almost a front underflip if he would have gone inverted. its not switch if your a regular rider like me, if your goofy then it would be switch. ONE IMPRESSIVE TRICK though!!!!!!!!!! OKAY EVERYONE, heres what i know about flips> if you don't know what backside (BS) or frontside (FS) is, its explained at the end of this> note: i abbreviate spins such as 540 as 5's and 720 as 7's BACKFLIP: a cartwheel like rotation or sideflip rotation towards the tail of your board, variations can be done where u turn 90 frontside and do a regular backflip rotation, then turn back and land the same way you took off. this probably has its own name, but i dont know it. (some people tweak their backflips like this naturally, because a sideflip rotation is tricky for some. but hey this looks awesome!) BACK BARREL ROLL: a normal backflip rotation towards the heelside of your board. if you add a spin, it becomes a Rodeo. RODEO: a Back Barrel Roll with a spin. Either a frontside or backside spin with a backflip rotation over the heal-side. Commonly done as 5's, and 7's. a 5 would be a 180 spin with a backflip (a flip is always a 360), u add both rotations together, a rodeo 7, would be a backflip(360) with a 360 spin, either front or backside. (note variations can be done with backflips (sideflips) instead of back barrel rolls, but are extremely tricky and something else is added to the name, but i forgot) FRONT BARREL ROLL: is the opposite of back barrel roll. A normal front flip rotation towards your toe-side. add a spin and it becomes a underflip UNDERFLIP: a Front Barrel roll with either a back or frontside spin. example: a back underflip, would be a backside rotation, where you flip forward towards your toes, (the first 90 degrees you flip towards the lip of the jump) commonly done as a underflip 5 (a 180 spin with front barrel roll (a flip is a 360, add the rotations together) for a 7, just spin more FRONT FLIP a cartwheel or sideflip like rotaton towards the nose of your board. add a spin and it becomes a Misty MISTY: this is a front flip with a spin. you have to start the trick with a frontflip (forwards sideflip) rotation and spin 180 at the end, making it a very difficult trick with the delayed spin. If you span backside to early it would become a backside rodeo, if you spun frontside to early it would be a backside underflip. very mind bending to think about, aha but remember: MISTY flips are the most common name anyone gives to any flip that has a spin added to it, just because they don't have a clue what the trick really is called. CORK this is a off axis spin, or a spin like a 540 done where the rider goes sideways, almost upside down, while spinning. alot of people think its a flip, but a true cork is not inverted, just off axis, or sideways, if you went into a full invert it would probably be a rodeo. NOTE: Cork is also a general name given to every spin that has a flip in it, if they don't know what its technically called. or if its some weird variation that cant be called anything. especially double rodeos, are called double corks all the time, because everyone does them with there own style. NOTE>>>NOTE>>>NOTE>>> to determine how much rotation you have with a spin flip combo (540, 720, 900 etc.) you add the rotation of the flip (which is always a 360, unless you plan on landing on your head) and add it too the amount of flat or regular spinning you do. for example: a Rodeo 5 is a backflip (360 rotation) with a 180 spin. say you take off regular, you would land goofy, if you want to do a redeo 7 and land regular, you just do a 360 with your backflip. and so on. NOTE>>> BACKSIDE or FORNTSIDE spin direction: abbreviated BS and FS, this is the direction is which a rider turns when spinning off a jump, (in rails and jibbing its different). if your a regular footed rider, when you approach a jump, its on your left side or forward, when spin off the jump towards your right (look blindly away from the jump over your right shoulder and spin) the direction you are spinning is Backside (BS), In the first 90 degrees of spin your back is towards the landing and you are facing up hill. Frontside (FS) is opposite, you spin towards your left, and your body faces downhill in the first 90 degrees of rotation. and if you are saying you did a backside rodeo, please just say; back rodeo! but hey, make up better sounding names, and maybe it will catch on, but if someone ask u what is that, just say it used to be called: (its proper name) haha make it catchy and easy to say, and it wont catch on, dont make it retarded like: catfish, hey dude a just did a catfish, yeah it used to be called a rodeo...dude your a retard! Say it a few times and see if it would sound freaking awesome. if it doesn't, just go with the proper name.

I don't really care about the name, or whatever. But how useful are trick tips like this? I know that I'm not gonna go out and try one off a kicker that size, even if I could do a cab 5 off it. What's the progression? How did he start out learning it? Did he learn on a tramp first, then into pow? This trick looks dope whatever it's called.

The Underflip is really an amazing trick, I really tried to do it this year, but I couldn't do it. But for next season it is really my ultimate goal to stand it.

Nope its an under flip. a cork cab 5 is spinning horizontally an under flip is pretty much an over corked version depending on how hard you throw determines how much flip and rotation you wana get. usually when you bail them you land on ur ass lol

Underflips are specified under flips for a reason. In order to be classified as a flip is your board has to be completely upsidedown at some point. That was not an underflip.

I think frontside cork and underflip are the same trick. Just different names. Some people think that underflips are more upside down but honestly the rotation feels the same and they're performed the exact same way, the more you drop your shoulder the more you flip. I learned them on accident doing frontside 540s from my heel-edge. You could even call an underflip a really crappy plain jane frontside 5. Keep it real, call tricks whatever you wanna call em'. It's not like a contest judge is gonna knock you points cause you don't know what you're trick is called.

I'm pretty sure underflip is spin then flip, that was just a cab cork 5. You can do em like that but its more you spin almost front one then do this weird backside cork three looking thing. They're sketchy and sometimes you land on your back...

word, if you dont hold your edge your gonna lose that speed and come up short. it seems to me that i dont drop my back shoulder till im at least at 90...

Try to hold your edge a bit longer instead of washing of the lip, that and take a better line into the jump instead of riding strait up the middle.
