Not entirely...there was already a distinction between 360 flips and 360 *kick*flips to avoid confusion. But I admit people fucked it up all the time so I'm sure there's a lot of truth to that too. They just became so common that people shortened it to "3 flips" and eventually "tre" if you're a cool guy (source [VIDEO] lol) It's Italian for "three"
