-Trick: never really had one personally but for me to watch other riders in person it's got to be tricking a box backwards or a transfer (yanked not a safety scrub) because once you have popped up into the land of no return you just have to deal with it and seeing the younger generation like Shaun Gornall, Mike Hullock and Morgan Thornley boosting 360 and oppo 360 combinations backwards always motivates me to keep tricking them myself and if I feel cocky might spin a transfer.
