A 23 second Short from Nollie Skateboarding on the cancel flip. It covers a half kickflip, then a half kickflip with the back foot, and keeping balance on landing.

A cancel flip is usually like a kickflip caught half way and then kicked back like a half heelflip. [VIDEO] So it’s the same motion but performed different.

It's not a cancel flip. This is a cancel flip [VIDEO]. OP's trick is called an anti flip
