I thought frenchi whip was when you kick with your backfoot
and your foot went way behind your front leg?

I could be wrong

No, french style/heelwhipping is when you kick your scooter forward, not behind you like normal tailwhips.

Couldn't be further from the truth. Heelwhips, or f/s whips I guess you could call them are not the same as "french whips". French whips are a regular whip done where you kick it with your back foot and catch with your front, and it looks like you do a lame little can-can with your feet while you do it. The reason they're called that is because a lot of french/euro riders used to do them back in the day, and also tanner markley. Not many people do them anymore because they look dumb as shit pretty much - I did them for probably the first 5 or 6 months when I started until I realized they sucked.

thank you for clearing that up WITHOUT being a douchebag... i really do appreciate it. i guess i just gathered up a lot of inaccurate information regarding this subject lol.

but in any sense, i'm just talking about kicking the deck forward instead of behind... whatever that may be called, idk because i've heard 3209234 different things in the past few hours ahah.

I feel like there are a lot of Americans that heelpwhip and a lot of Frenchmen that tailwhip. Just say whip/heelwhip.

With back foot or front foot, with heel or tail.
Its still a stupid fucking tailwhip.

First off, your name is Zane.
Second, you're still a little gerber that has mommy and daddy drive you places.

For those 2 reasons, I don't really listen to anything that you ever have to say.
