at the time, they were performed without an Ollie (early grab). This version, however, is not very common anymore. Tony Hawk invented the
Backside Varial in 1980, adding an Ollie in the process. Before long, 360 Varials, where the skater turns the board 360 degrees backside and grabs it, became commonplace. After the invention of the Kickflip Indy, most professional vert skaters had to be able to perform one to win a contest, and soon they were looking for ways to increase the difficulty. One of the ways was to spin the board 180 degrees during the Kickflip, which ended up being called a Varial Kickflip Indy. Somehow the term filtered back into street skating and it became common for a Kickflip combined with a Pop Shove (180 spin of the board) to be called a Varial Kickflip. Some have even gone so far as to drop the "kickflip" from the name altogether, calling a Kickflip Shove-it a "Varial." However, vertical skateboarders still use the term Varial to describe any trick involving spinning the board and grabbing it.

mini-halfpipes. In the early 80s, Billy Ruff invented the Unit, the precursor to the modern 540. He'd early-grab the front rail and twist frontside, briefly putting his other hand down on the transition in order to push off the wall, which made it easier to get the whole spin. Because he had to put his hand down, the Unit was always done below the coping. In 1984 Tony Hawk took it to the next level when he invented the
Frontside 540 (the inverted version of which is now known as the "Rodeo Flip"). But soon after, for some reason, he lost the trick, and it didn't gain any sort of popularity until much later. In 1984, Mike McGill, then a pro skater for Powell, invented the McTwist, which is easily the most popular 540 variation ever (see below). A flood of variations soon followed, including almost every conceivable grab while spinning either direction, no grabs at all (Ollie 540), as well as versions combined with a Varial, Kickflip, or Heelflip.

full 360 to land moving forward, they needed to spin their shoulders, which prevented them from grabbing in the stylish, preferred manner, around the knee. The alternative was grabbing the board, with their forward hand on the toe rail of the board, between the legs, or stink bug, which they thought was "gay." Most skaters do consider this trick to be easier. Like the
Caballerial, the Gay Twist has spawned numerous variations over the years. Some found it easier to grab backside instead of Mute Air, which they called a "Les Twist." Other notable offspring of the Gay Twist include the Frontside Gay Twist, Kickflip and Heelflip Gay Twists, Varial Gay Twist, and the 720.

was practicing. One day Tony landed the first
Stalefish but did not have a name for it yet. During dinner, the only thing they had to eat at the camp was canned fish. The dinner apparently was not too appetizing to Tony, who called it "stale fish." The camper he was with misunderstood and assumed he was naming his new trick, and it stuck.

many variations including the
Frontside Pop Shove-It No Comply, the No Comply up a curb, the No Comply 360, etc. All can be done by altering the backfoot position and how much pop and spin you put on your board. An alternate version of this trick is called the "De-Comply." It is the opposite of a No Comply.

Originally a Varial was a
Frontside Air where the skater reached between the legs and grabbed the board on the heel edge with the backhand (now known as a Roastbeef grab), then turned the board 180 degrees frontside with the hand before putting it back on the feet and landing. Like all Frontside Airs
872:
One of the more difficult aerial variations. A Stalefish is a heel-side grab with your back hand reaching around your back leg, meaning it is not only awkward to reach but necessitates that you grab quite late in your air. As for the name, it came from a camper at a
Swedish skate camp where Tony Hawk

The
Nosegrab is similar to the Tailgrab, however, instead of grabbing the tail (back) of the board, you grab the nose (front). The rider ollies, pop their back foot off the board, and grabs the nose (front) of the skateboard. Once the rider lets go, the rider must set his/her back foot back down over

Another of the basic airs. It is a frontside air grabbing the nose or heel edge with your front hand (leading hand). Neil
Blender was the first to perform this trick, which became known as the Lien Air. Lien is Neil spelled backwards. Variations: Lien to tail (invented by Allen Losi), fingerflip lien
863:
A frontside air grabbing mute. That's leading hand on the toe side of the board between the feet, launching off the coping turning frontside, and landing. While Slob-Airs, Slob-Bonelesses, and Slob
Fastplants were common in the 1980s, they are still staples of transition skateboarding. Nearer to the

is widely credited with popularizing it. In the first few years of doing this trick, all skaters grabbed the board before lifting off (known as an "early grab"). Eventually, it became common practice to Ollie first, then grab the board. However, Ollieing it is much more difficult, and so it is still

Most of the different types of grabs were originally aerial tricks that were performed in ditches, empty pools, and vert ramps before flatground

The No Comply is an alternate method of getting air. The rider pops the board's tail, simultaneously planting the front foot in the ground. They then launch off their 'planted' foot while catching the board with the inside of the back leg, getting the front foot back on board for landing. There are

The McTwist is an aerial where the rider performs an inverted backside 540 while grabbing Mute Air on the toe rail, with the forward hand, around the knee. Other 540 aerials came later, and they are generally known by the style of grab and the rotation, as in "backside 540" abbreviated to "Indy 5."

The 720, two full mid-air rotations, is one of the rarest tricks in skateboarding. It was first done by Tony Hawk in 1985, and it wasn't something he planned to do. He accidentally over-rotated a Gay Twist and Lance Mountain suggested that he might be able to spin twice. After less than an hour, he

Performed similarly to a Stalefish, however, the skater grabs the heel edge of the board with his or her trailing hand in between the legs, rather than wrapping the arm behind. Named and popularized by Jeff Grosso, it is much simpler to execute than a Stalefish, and is sometimes referred to as the

A Backside Air is performed by riding up the transition, grabbing the board on the heel side with the front hand, lifting off, turning backside (toward the skater's toes) and landing forward. It is considered a staple of vertical skateboarding. Some skaters grab the board between the trucks, while

because he "had seen BMX bikers, rollerbladers, and snowboarders do Backflips and thought it was about time a skateboarder did one." He first learned to do it in a gymnasium by launching off a ramp and landing in a foam pit. Once he was comfortable with the technique, he learned to do it on a vert
457:
The Backflip is an aerial where the rider and his board complete a full rotation on the lateral axis. If the trick is done by launching out of the ramp, the skater lands forwards. If it is done on the wall of a vert ramp, the skater lands backward, adding significantly to the difficulty and danger
833:
Taken from a freestyle trick invented by Rodney Mullen, this air is performed by grabbing the backside with the front hand and then kicking or "wrapping" the front leg forward in a circular motion around the nose of the board. Once the leg has wrapped at least 180 around the board, the back hand

at the time, hence the name Indy. This trick was debatably done first by Gunnar Haugo and dubbed the “Gunnair” in 1978. Note that an Indy Air cannot be performed when turning frontside, it is by nature a backside-turning air. An aerial with the same grab location but turning frontside is known as

A Fakie Mute 360, or a Caballerial with a Mute grab. It was named a "Gay Twist" because Lance Mountain and Neil Blender (who invented it together) couldn't do Caballerials after trying them for a month. So they decided to try to grab them. Because their bodies needed spinning momentum to make the

In general use, the term "180" is an aerial where the skater and board spin a half rotation. In common use, the term refers to an Ollie 180 performed on flat terrain, where the skater starts rolling forward, Ollies, turns a half rotation, and lands backward. The same trick can be done on a bank,

A one-footed tail grab, taking the back foot off and kicking straight down or sideways in a backward direction. The idea is to take the back foot off and use the front foot to kick the board out ahead of you, and then catch the board by the tail and put it back under your feet. Invented by

Another Backside Air variation is where the skater straightens his hips and bends his knees so the board goes up behind his back. Invented by Neil Blender and originally called Methodist Air, the name was shortened not long after the original photo ran in Transworld Skateboarding in 1984.
988:
A trick variation that involves the skater shifting their board 90 degrees (or close to it), with their feet still in contact with the board, then bringing it back to its starting position. Usually done with tweak grabs or grabs of the like. It is used to add extra style to tricks.
898:
The skater pops either side of the board, reaches behind, and grabs the tail with his/her hand. Generally considered one of the hardest of the basic aerials to do, since grabbing the tail adds little stability and tends to want to make the front foot come off the board.
693:
A one-footed lien to tail, where the front foot is taken off and kicked out straight down (behind the board), was invented by Tony Hawk not long after Madonna's first album was released. It was named the Madonna because Tony and his friends were fans of the performer.

landed it and has done it consistently ever since. Like a Gay Twist, 720s are usually done from fakie-grabbing Mute Air, but there have been a few different variations. Besides inventing the stock 720, Hawk also was the first to do Stalefish and Varial variations.
