Isn't scuffing using your foot as a brake while going forwards? Thats what I learnt from ground rules anyway. I've never heard scuffing with a brake called squeaking.

No, yeah, you're right, that's what I meant...kicking the tire but not using your "hand" brake, using your foot as the brake.  And you can scuff backwards, i.e. brakeless...Squeaks are using the brake.  Squeaks going forward?  Front Yards using the brake, Circle K using the brake, etc.

Please loose the background music. It's not fun to hear the same track over and over again, even if the track was good.

Apart from that, great work!

so brakeless kicking backwards is also called scuffing? front yards etc are just normal scuffing, thats what scuffing's all about

Haha, yeah, any new vids won't have any music.

Yeah, you're right, but if you use your brake while scuffing, it's tech. a squeak!  But then you have guys doing brakeless side/pinky squeaks which are technically side/pinky scuffs because they do them without a brake?  Haha

so brakeless kicking backwards is also called scuffing?

As long as you are using your foot as a brake and keeping it on the tire, it's tech. called scuffing.  Not just kicking the tire and rolling backwards, that is basically just 1 scuff, roll, 1 scuff, roll, but I would just call that kicking the tire, like you said.  Anyway, it doesn't really matter, but it's funny to think about.

Ok, guys...I did a big update this morning with the how-to's.  I completed most of the 'coming soon' descriptions and added 4 new tricks from Matt W.'s DVD!  Thanks Matt!  I also went through the requests and picked about 6 that I know I can get up in the next couple days...Those of you that have requested harder tricks are going to have to be patient as the database grows.  We need to help out the beginners first, right! :)  ANyway, those of you who requested a more intermediate trick, check your mail, because your trick will be up soon.  Thanks again for your patience with this....my life has been hella crazy since I got back to the East Coast.  Now things are finally settling down!  Enjoy.
