If a cartwheel is defined as a handstand with a half turn, then
An aerial would be a no-handed handstand with a half turn.

So...

What is a no-handed handstand?
(Hint: not a webster)

I think this would be the sweetest trick ever. I'm gonna try it next time I practice. Only then can I solve this terminological mystery which has plagued my mind this past 3 minutes.

A no-handed handstand without any additional rotations, is you landing on your head/face...have fun :smile:

Hopefully, you'll cradle...

Hmmmm.. You're absolutely correct, only that a cartwheel cannot be defined as a handstand with a half-turn :tongue:

What sess said^___^ :tongue:

What's with the suddent in-flux of all these other fuckers from Perth? Go back to highschool, you fucks!

No handed handstand is just a STAND.

Jeeeeeeeeeeeez, can't you guys figure anything out?

i think he means jump into it like you would a brandy but instead of going over yourself and turning, you go up then back down again (against the rotation that the jump provides)

Fear not, my fellow trickers, I have come to the rescue. This move is actually possible. You just need to get a wind tunnel facing up (the practice sky-diving tubes). However, the hard part is not rotating.

No paradox here, the answer is all in the first post:

AERIAL IS DEFINED IN TERMS OF CARTWHEEL, NOT HANDSTAND!

You can describe cartwheel that way, not aerial! No handed handstand= FACEPLANT!!!

WRONG!
If a cartwheel is defined in terms of a handstand and an aerial is defined in terms of a cartwheel then the aerial must be definable in terms of a handstand.

Alpha and Towlie get it.

If Flipper (the seal thingy) can be realted to Free Willy and a Willy can be related to a penis...then does this mean flipper can be related to a penis?

No. "Related" is not the same as "defined in terms of". Get your facts straight sir.
