Whats the deal with tricks?

[becs]

also i think the most tricks that are ''new'' arent used often in combos because they are ugly or unstylish so noone uses the name the inventor gave it.

That's also an important factor to weather it'd be a new trick. If someone created a really cool trick which with high possibility might be used by others the possibility of it being named after the inventor is also high

I was also going to say that!!
When I started fsing I was always looking for new tricks. I realy wanted a trick named after me. But thats just stupid!! don't try to find new trick! Just do want you want, like Tom said!! And be creative!

Who really cares about what a "new trick" is? Do the stuff you want to do, and stop care about if its new or not.

I care tom, thats hu cares... i go to sleep every nite wanting to die becuase i cant fiqure out if there are any more new tricks out there in the world to be found... its my only purpose in life to find that trick...

theres alot of stuff still to be discovered, like heel tricks and spinning tricks
watch michryc or filip (poland) and that might spark something

For me a trick is a trick when it existst of two touches and in between going around the ball in any way. A crossover or reverse cross counts as one of the touches. Some examples:

atw: touch-around-touch
latw: touch- twice around- touch
tatw: touch- around the ball- touch with crossover motion
taatw: touch with reverse cross- around with other foot- crossover motion touch
palle trick: touch-around with both feet - touch with cross motion

I hope you understand what i mean with this. Because of my rule in bold, some things that are called tricks aren't actually tricks and some things called combo's are actually tricks:

Beck atw is the most famous example because it's actually three touches:
touch- around the ball- reverse cross touch- around the ball- crossover touch

But things like cross-atw nt and tb-htw nt are actually tricks:
cross touch-around the ball other foot - touch
tb touch- around the ball same foot - touch

Please dont comment right after you've read this, just think about it and then post. I dont want reactions like: that's stupid, but i want arguements :cheers:

Yeah, I fully agree with this post! And as for combos like co-atw nt.. When you add cross AFTER any trick (for example: ahmatw-cross nt), all ppl say that it`s a new trick.. So, why ppl don`t say the same when you add cross BEFORE any trick (cross-ahmatw nt is touch with cross motion-around with other foot-around with the same foot-touch, for ex) ?? In my point of view, all combos like cross-amatw nt, revers cross-matw nt etc are actually tricks.. :lol:

you're also right, it's just two touches with a lot of rotations in your example
