Yeah, I know the name sucks, but I don't do names.
I was screwing around today and some of my friends ask why I don't do any flatland stuff anymore. I explained that it just wasn't me, but I decided to see if I could still do some of it. So I was trying the one-footed shove-it and one of my first times it didn't spin at all, it just popped up and landed barely under me. So after re-learning the shove-it, I went back to just popping it and eventually I made a trick with it.
I pop the board up with my right foot and start a 45 degree body varial(so as to be parallel with the board again). As I come down with my left foot forward I kick down and the board does a quick kickflip and lands. I land back down in switch(I be goofy-footed, yo) and roll away. Maybe someone can perfect this sort of trick if it sounds at all worthwhile, I simply lost patience for plain flatland and have since moved on from there. This trick sounds and, for all intents and purposes, IS pretty stupid, but I thought I might as well mention it and see if such a trick even existed.
