New Move?

[Zachh]

Made this move up flipping yesterday. Just wondering if its actually something new or not. Made an open and closed version of it. Opinions?

I don't think it's really a new move. More of a combo.

Looks like a combo of existing to me, but greens out for a cool avatar.

heh...really, it's more of a combo than a move. i like it tho.

If you put moves that are already well known in the community together it doesnt make a new move, it makes a combo.
Keep making videos though man i enjoy watching new flippers.

It's a nice ending to a thumbroll. I'd probably not classify it as a move on it's own. But definitely a great way to end a combo. Nice that you asked for the consensus of the flipping community on if it was new or not rather than claiming it for yourself.

Hey! That's my move!

That was wicked man! I was just gonna do a tut on something similar. I love it!

I would like to see you do a tut on that. Its just a thumb rollover, but you pull your thumb out and put some extra spin. Would love to see your tutorial posted in this thread so everyone can see it better.

thats a fresh looking combo bro.

i dont know how many "new moves" are left under the sun. thats almost like saying a painter has discovered a new brush stroke.

but we can always expand and innovate like you have here.

greens sent.

Thank you. Nice to keep hearing from you.

People said that before the exo, finger twirl, zero gravity, hack
aerial, double scissor, zero grav helix... I could go on and on.
Most of those tricks named came within the past year or two as
well. Never set limits for yourself. There is a lot of unchartered
territory out there.

As others have mentioned... nothing new. I do it all the time but use the index, middle or ring fingers instead of the thumb.

I think the first time I saw it was in one of Balian Fabisongs vids.... which is probably a good 4-5 years old.

I do not think you are viewing it right because it can not be done with the index, middle, or ring finger.

Yeah you can, you just have to be a little quicker with your fingers. There are subtle differences based on which finger you use, but in essence it's the same move.

I believe L. Buddha ended with a pretty bitchin and far more complicated variant of it during his entry for this months competition. It's on page 11 of that thread if you missed it. At least I think that's what he did, dude moves fast.

Oh yeah, in the area above the typing box there's a little button with a word bubble inside, that will let you properly quote others.
