S/t - swings forward from back (gainers, corks)
C/t - carries the leg back from forward (websters, axe2aerials, raiz)
W/t - wraps the leg behind the other leg (fulls, w/t 9)
M/l - misses the leg and brings it infront of the other leg (gms, gmt)

fuck terminology, figure it all out yourself but dont make shit up, use existing terms:
for example:
a full twist + a double leg out
in this case your brain should be able to gather that it is a full twisting double leg out,
A) fulldleg or
B) parafull
figure it all out yourself, just dont make up terms that only you would understand. using your brain and actually taking the time to think and debate yourself actually makes you smarter in the long run and is actually good for teh tricks :good:

I'm sorry David, but I simply can't credit you after you said "parafull". :agony: Ahaha. :wink:
Here's an idea Subtle Sorrow: ask us specific questions so you can get specific answers from a variety of viewpoints.

I'd also agree with the notion of contacting Ambitrixerous. He's a very kind soul with a profound knack of explaining the confusing intricacies of tricking terminology.

it took me about a week to learn tricking terminology myself (in like spring 2004)
everyone needs to pop some Ritalin and do this
This isnt bad either

I just tricked, and then after a while I realised I had learned all about it without even noticing.

Tricking terminology honestly isn't complicated or hard haha.
That's why I say, just ask us a few questions about whatever is on your mind, and we can give quick and succinct answers.

"who even cares about terminology, it's not like it sprouts legs and walks you home from school!"
I do. Clear communication of ideas is directly correlated to the fastest possible learning curve and I'll be DAMNED if I'll choose any other route for my own learning or the learning of others! :cool: Example:
Me: "Hey Nick, do this ________"
Nick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWkVO-HGjQ4

This is the sole reason I use this crazy lingo!
I tought all the terminology to my friend in about 8 minutes on the phone
Okay, so why is parafull incorrect. I always assumed that that right haha.

The 'Para-' prefix went out of fashion because it makes very little sense.
