dleg twist? dleg gyro?

[Kenji]

so i understand a dleg gyro is a dleg then the spin but wut is it when u spin first then dleg? is that a dleg twist?
is dleg gyro and dleg twist both the same move?

[ShahrozS]

"Gyro" indicates a upright spin, so if you did a doubleleg then became fully upright and did a 360 spin, it would be a Doubleleg gyro, on the other hand when the rotation is at anything above upright, it could be considered a Doubleleg twist...

Doubleleg Gyro at :23 (not fully upright, but the best example I could find)

And depending on how much spin precedes the "Doubleleg" position it could be a variety of things, BS720 Doubleleg and P720 Doubleleg being the most common...If the spin preceding the Doubleleg position is inverted it is known as a fulltwist doubleleg, and essentially theres a ton of tricks you can "Doubleleg" out of which would add the term to the name (ex. Cork Doubleleg, Btwist Doubleleg etc.)

Double leg twist and gyro are the same trick.

[Ambitrixterous]

Double leg twist and gyro are the same trick.

Na he's right, twist is horizontal & gyro is vertical. Sessh did gyro, Jefferson did twist.

[Khaos]

twist dleg? as in dleg outta a btwist?

[Shukumine]

so i understand a dleg gyro is a dleg then the spin but wut is it when u spin first then dleg?

If you're asking that what is a Doubleleg Twist where you twist first, and then "doubleleg", then the answer is: Pop 540 Twist Doubleleg

[Khaos]

depends what the take off is like

[Kenji]

thanks for clearin it up men.

[Halvor]

how bout that dlegthing tdm-david does? there one at 4:39.. he doesn't fully dleg this one (and he doubles it)

what would it be if didn't double and fully extented his leg at the end? like I have seen him do a thousan times before

[Shukumine]

depends what the take off is like

But if you do a Doubleleg Twist and change the place of the twist and a "doubleleg", the setup doesn't change; Doubleleg Twist is always done from a "pop" setup.

So a snapuswipe would not be considered a sideswipe gyro because it is not upright?

[Khaos]

if kenji was asking if dleg gyro and dleg twist were the same move i wasnt sure if he was gonna be taking great notice of the take off cos i could be C720 dleg as well

[Skippy]

Pop Cali Roll, but I think it was intended to be a double leg double twist.

[Kenji]

if kenji was asking if dleg gyro and dleg twist were the same move i wasnt sure if he was gonna be taking great notice of the take off cos i could be C720 dleg as well

yea im aware of the take off, i just wasn't sure about the twisting and how ur body should be positioned

Yeah "sideswipe gyro" is a technically incorrect description since in a snapuswipe the performer is supposed to be horizontal for the twist. This move should be described as "sideswipe twist," since there is currently no known trick which has a twist-during-swipe action.


About doublelegs and twists:

Doubleleg exists on its own as a trick, and also as a variation of the action of 'hyper round' which can be applied as a tag to any horizontal or vertical tricks.

In application on the horizontal axis, anything that has time for a doubleleg can have one included:

Btwist + doubleleg = "twist doubleleg"
cork + doubleleg = "cork doubleleg"
Pop twist (of various sorts) + doubleleg = "pop twist doubleleg" (of various sorts)

That means they can be before the twist also, or any combination thereof. Swipes and singlelegs carry these same attributes.

noted, but what if your doing the double leg first and before u land u execute a vertial twist? what is that? the same thing? err? is THAT a double leg gyro?

i can double leg twist from a bs stance.


parafuso > bs720 double leg > double leg twist.

I always thought of if like if you twist when your chest is still facing up it would be a dleg twist....but if your chest starts to face where you came from and your hips are turned over before you twist it would be a gyro....manny brown has dleg gyros.


....if that makes any sense haha

Oh and I remember Gary Ip doing a pop7dleg varation back in the day haha...idk where the video of it is tho.

[Neo Dingsit.]

so who's making up the rules?

[Nathan.P.]

so who's making up the rules?

No one is haha....just trying to come to an agreement in technique differences.

A slight diffrence but I think when people dleg gyro the dleg stands out more and it looks prettier haha.

I wanna learn these now haha
