Front/Back Scooter Flips and Briflips(back and front)

Sorry to say this but im getting SO sick of hearing these tricks continuosly called names other than their originals. Im not usually one to complain in the forum of a thread but it has to stop HERE.

Front Scooterflip - as named by it's inventor Jordan Miller, in early 2003, but somewhere along the line... "somebody" renamed them to "Inwards"... this name is incorrect, therefore it's pointless to call it as such.

Back Scooterflip - as named by their inventors in the EZ-scoot crew, those of you who are not framilar with this team, it was an old school team consisting of Kc Corning, Al Lampton, Silas Henderson, and Jordan Miller... if these names are un known to you, then leave this forum now... anyway, they are not to be called "outwards"

Briflip - as named for it's inventor, Brian Boston, hence the name "Bri" flip... although at first he just called them X-up Scooter flips, later they were named after him by the kids on the OLD SR... they are BRI FLIPS, not "impossibles", or "noodle flip"... although personally I hate them being refered to as "impossibles" more.

Front Briflip - to my knowledge, I was the first to attempt these, but Brandon Kilbury is the first i've seen land it, so it was named a Front Briflip... not an "impossible" or "front impossible"

With that being said, you shouldn't call tricks by any other name than the one given by it's creator, a Front Scooterflip is an original move on a scooter, and it was named that... calling them "inwards" is disrespectful to Jordan Miller... you wouldn't call tailwhips by any other name, or turndowns, they are what they are, not "impossibles" and "inwards"/"outwards"

agreed completely ^

although i dont really mind noodleflip haha, i figure jonny and sean came up with it just sort of joking. the whole impossible/inward/outward thing bugs me, especially like a year or so back when toy tryed to convert people
 
Yea about the noodleflip, thats why I refered to it, but didn't really address it as a problem... i like how atleast they mention the word "flip" in it.

hahahaha, thats acceptable.... we had a time period at TIC where for some reason kids called my scooter a ghetto mobile cause im known for having excessibe ammounts of stickers... but pretty much aslong as your calling them front scoot, back scoot and what not... then it's fine with me... it's just annoying cause I grew up respecting EZ-Scoot ALOT, I wouldnt be here without Kc Corning in particular.
