Looks more like a Casper-flip to me! ([VIDEO] )Where you do a Casper, but then mid air instead of on the ground (still sick and super duper hard) *edit* i looked a bit more cuz i got confused, and indeed you do a hospital flip!! (pure front foot movement), Whereas a half casper flip would be done by using the back foot to movee the board [VIDEO]

So kudos, you hair splitting, nit picky mother fucker!

That’s one of yall posting misinformation. He literally says he can’t do a Casper flip, because he thinks it’s something different, and cherry picks one of the Casper flips from this video: [VIDEO] Which he messes up and accidentally barely touches the tail. Watch the full video and you see by the end he does them properly with his front foot.
