unique tricks?

Not a lot of people do nose grabs anymore. You could get really creative with grabs.

Also, as far as tricks go, I've only seen one 360 downside heelwhip in a video that I can remember, you never see anyone do those.

Switch tricks and grinds too.

Not many people do backside noseblunts or overcrooks either.

Shifty? Please explain!

You turn your scooter 90 degrees in the air then bring it back. Somewhat like a turndown, but without pulling the bars across your body. Shifty 180s you bring the scooter out the opposite way that you are turning your top half of your body, then snap it back the other way.

Hope this makes sense, I'm just kind of rambling

So basically a motowhip? I'm thinking a shifty is coming from the snowboarding/skiing realm and is the same thing as a motowhip in the BMX/Motocross realm.

Yep, but a motowhip there is slightly more of a vertical aspect when you move your bike. This is all horizontal. But you know what I mean.
