    edit: at the beggining of the trick tip he was standing like a back savannah. then he came from the other side.

    the trick tip was for front savannah.

    no ao-hblocks, please

    No one gives a shit about Brandon Smith's opinions.

    Everyone knows the trick name makes no sense.

    No one cares if thats what its called where you're from.

    It is so obviosuly wrong in every way possible.

    There is actually no logical argument for it to be called that.

    As long as I have been skating (since about 91) it has always been called an AO unity.

    It makes sense in the same way that some one can AO 180/360/540.

    Because that is just how it is.

    It doesnt matter if thats what it was called back in the day or if you were skating since the 1900's

    Of course it makes no sense

    What should a fronside unity be called then?

    Will you start saying true backslide or true royale instead of bs bacslide and bs royale?


    have you not noticed that bs and fs savannah and bs and fs unity fit in completely with all the other groove trick names?

    use some common sense.

    a unity.

    No, because they have established trick names regardless if it makes sense or not. Just like the AO unity does.

    I get what you're saying but dont you think its time for some logical change and PROGRESSION? Seeing as the likelyhood is the majority of people who rollerblade dont call it that and there isn't really any sound logic to calling it an alley oop unity.

    The chances are if you did a survey the established trick name would not be alley oop unity.

    Whoever called it that did not think things through.

    Im going to ignore the blatent potholes in your response to the frontside unity question.

    Exactly. The worst argument is that H-Block tricks can't be true-spin or alley-oop.

    Some of you fuckers are dumb. It is called an AO Unity. AO Unity, Tru Unity, Backside Unity, Unity. It's that simple. And, yes, you can also Tru Spin Royale.

    i think its funny that everyone automatically assumes that ao was originally said to be only for soul tricks. i dont ever remember anyone coming out in a video or mag or anything saying alley oop only pertains to soul tricks. i remember doing back farvs back in the day and everyone calling it an ao royale...then out of nowhere it was a farvegnugen or whatever and then it became full torq.

    ao was always describing the motions of a trick sliding in the opposite direction that its normally done or was originally done. when unity's were first done the opposite way of doing a unity was an ao unity....makes perfect sense.

    Ride Like Aaron was the first time I ever heard the term "Savannah" and it was being used to describe a forward 270 backside unity.
