In-class Task 4 - Hypertext/Hypermedia


KICKFLIP

The kickflip (originally magic flip) is a skateboarding trick where the skateboarder drags his front foot at an angle up the nose of the skateboarding order to make it flip 360 degrees along the board's axis. Rodney Mullen invented the kickflip concept, however, he did not actually execute a kickflip until August 21, 1983. Skateboarders execute kickflips similarly to ollies, and like ollies, they have become a defining trick of street skateboarding. Other boardsports have adopted the kickflip: notably surfing, wakeskating, and skimboarding.
