Well, no i was hitting some mirage's and then i started like trying new things, and then i got an idea to like twist my foot to an osis, and this came up so i wanted to see if this trick had a name for it :)

Mirage bailed to osis (from toe or clipper) is torque. Or like Jeremy said, toe torque helps differentiate, since it is not as common. So your trick is still torque, like everyone said.

UNLESS, you are doing a toe stall after the mirage and before the osis, then it's just two serparate tricks -- mirage and then osis.

Nope, its just one trick, but its still impossible for me to do, I really want someone to hit this trick, because i only saw them from a clipper. Thanks for the answers. :D


Or, for even a bigger challenge do a pixie set >mirage>and then do torque ?

I think its very hard, not not sure if anyone can do it with a good form. Try it out :D

It's called a refraction. A bit like a butterfly bail to osis.

Haha its really not as much like a fro as it looks in the video.

Anyway, is my guess of a paradox reverse blender anywhere near correct (as another name for the trick)? And how many adds would that be? Thanks.

KINDA, but not really.
First, it's pulled, so it's not clean (making it a different trick in this case), and second, dyno should be more of a dex with the lower leg and your movement is with more of above the knee. If you try just a regular clipper set dyno you'll see what I mean.

I think refraction is just 3? I'm not sure though. It could be 4 if it gets a body add for the "spin"... Footbag.org's trick list is outdated and a hand full of tricks' Job's there don't make sense.

a good rule to differentiate between this and dyno (or, a true "reverse blender"),and also between butterfly and reverse whirl, is that with your move / butterfly, the bag starts "inside" the knee before the dex, and is "outside" the knee after. With dyno / reverse whirl, the bag is "outside" the knee for the whole dex.
BRICK!

I came up with a trick idea last night.

Datw landing on clipper. Right leg datw motion on left clipper.
I do the second dex kind of whirl like, but haven't managed to land the trick yet, because I'm not fast enough so far...always missing the delay for the split of a second.

I was just wondering if anybody does this ?
It's not Pixie ss Whirl, because I'm doing both dexes in one motion without a plant and I'm not keeping my leg off the ground to call it muted Pixie ss Whirl.
I don't know...Toe Whirr ? Reverse DOD ? ^^
