A chart showcasing peoples acquired techniques and moves. It's divided into categories of difficulty, which progresses alphabetically, A-B-C, e.t.c.

Ok ok let me explain.

It has little if anything to do with difficulty. Sure higher up classes will feature more difficult tricks, that much is obvious just by looking at it. But it's just coincidence. It's a correlation but it's not the causation.

The fact is, tricks in Class A are the most basic prerequisite tricks. Obviously, some people don't count stuff like Cartwheels or Tornado Kicks as tricks, so those generally aren't included. But that's beside the point.

The point is, the basic "major" tricks without "major trick" prerequisites will be in Class A. Their respective advanced variations will be in the classes above them following a natural chain of progression. I haven't looked at it in a while so I'm not totally sure, but let's take an example. A) B-Kick > B) B-Twist > C) H-Twist + B-Twist Round.
There, you can see we start with the most basic trick in the first class, and it's variations are incrementally listed in the above classes. B-Twist is the next major variation of the B-Twist, so it's in class B. The B-Twist was two (well, that we'll talk about ha) basic variations, the H-Twist and B-Twist Round, so those are put in the next class up.

And that's basically how it works. The classes are classified by progression. That's why a class like C or whatever may feature many tricks that many people feel are not of the same difficulty level, because it's not founded on difficulty.

Anyways, of course sometimes difficult tricks are placed appropriately in classes. Like, the Flare has no real direct prerequisite, but God forbid putting it in class A, haha. Sometimes they may not have major prereqs but they're hard enough to be bumped up a couple classes, just to make things feel right!


Note I personally don't really use the class nomenclature but whatever one should understand how it works anyways.

basically the classes are how sessh classified each trick for HIMSELF. where a double cork might be easier than a cheat 900 for one person, its the exact opposite for another. ignore the trick classes. really they mean nothing unless your sessh.

[HeikkiJ]

Ok ok let me explain.

B-Twist is the next major variation of the B-Twist, so it's in class B.
