surface
Shown for a regular-footed rider riding nollie. Teal ring + arrow = the rider's facing direction; teal band = the tail; a dot is where a hand holds the board - bright yellow for the front hand, amber for the back one, which is the whole difference between a mute and an indy. Board and rider rotate independently - each follows its own component. Drag to orbit.
The grammar names this movement:
Nollie Backside 180 360 Hardflip (Late Shove-it)
- Nollie - popping off the nose instead of the tail
- Backside 180 - rider rotates 180° backside, board carried with them
- 360 Hardflip - fusion: kickflip + 360° frontside shove-it
- (Late Shove-it) - modifier: the shove-it is held back until the ollie is already up
