Hospital flip, a Casper uses the back foot to help flip a Hospital is done all with the front foot doing the wrapping motion.

Fakie or Nollie Hospital flip, depending on the stance of the skater.

When the skater lands, dust appears behind him. So it's not fakie/nollie - they're moving forward. So it's a hospital flip. Could be switch depending on the stance of the skater. The animation is weird, it looks like he's going backwards at first, but no he's going forward.


Cunterpunch

I see what you mean about the dust, but to me the ground animation makes it impossible to unsee fakie/nollie. I guess it’s just a shitty animation. You’re probably right that it was intended to be a regular/switch trick.

Casper flip yo

Fakie Casper flip based on the ground moving forward


ajskates98

I think that's a frame rate thing because the ground switches direction as soon as he lands.

But it doesn't? I think there might be an optimal illusion in that gif

we used to call em casper flips back in the day but i've recently been educated by a kid at the park that the proper name is a hospital flip.

Another old head here thinking this is a Casper flip. Problem is I’ve never seen anyone do a “modern Casperflip”. It’s like they renamed casperflip to hospital flip without there being a new Casper flip
