View Full Version : snapu swipe type trick ...
has anyone ever done, like a laydown 360 cresent followed by a full twist/horizontal gyro (whichever you want to call it), similar to the snapuswipe, except using an outside kick, rather than an inside one ??
sorry if this makes no sense ! it just popped into my head earlier and i wanted to ask !

Well... It would be prettier IMO if it was : Illusion Kick Gyro (like the illusion kick in Scalco's avatar, but with a gyro in the end...)!

Also look at Alvin Kash Chan's old IMC sampler. It's not a crescent single leg twist but more of a 360 kick, twist... haha.
yeh alvan cash does a couple times in his samps.
ive also done it on accident trying a cresent singleleg gyro.

I'm picturing an illusion twist, laid back with the snapu-whatever at the end.

Yeah I think Marc C does an illusion twist gyro thing too in one of his samplers.
these illusion gyros you guys are talkin about, are the gyros done horizontally or upright?

Nevermind, Marc C does an illusion hyperhook... like a laidback 720 double.
just watched alvins sampler again... dang they're sick...

i read all the posts, and it doesnt exactly sound like a csl twist is what he's talking about, i could be wrong, but i think he means like a laid back cheated 360 gyro
:::edit::: motherfucker!!!! i keep on making these stupid ass posts, nevermind what i said above, that would just be a really stalled c720twist, im gonna stop posting now until i finish midterms and i can actually get some sleep

ah, that made me laugh. I'd much rather attempt this from a cheat take off, don't know why, I just would! It would look very nice (Borat stylee).

if you did it from a cheat take off it looks exactly like a c720 twist with a long stall before the twist (scalco's tried 'em and thats exactly what they looked likke)

no, I'm not sure about that. If you really throw the lifting leg into the kick, and then wrap, it will look just like a snapu, but with a cheat take off and a lifting leg kick. If you do not kick, then, yeah I will have a cheat 720 twist. The snapu is the same, so many people try them and just don't do them right. Scalco is a legend for doing such clean snapus, and I daresay he could pull this off. You would just need a good layback, and a prolonged extension on the kick before the wrap.
ok heres my attempt from a while back. like i said, its a failed cresent single leg gyro attempt but it is a horizontal 360gyro. i know it is sloppy and not clean, its just to give you an idea of what it might look like.

ill get the attempt of the illusion gyro up tomorrow, though it will be more of a shuriken twist gyro.

That's nice dude! real nice. Laid out it would look even better, but still, props going out to you!
Shuriken twist gyro would be the sex. i want to see scalco's illusion twist gyro attempt (preferably just like his avatar as that really kicks ass).
