| Q: How do you presume the expertise to assign terminology? |
| While I do not claim to be the authority on the sport, my expertise comes from being credited as the only person who can say he's taught himself over 90% of the tricks out there on both sides. Throughout my tricking career I have learned much, perhaps more than anyone else about exactly how tricks and tricking work, and here I have compiled what I believe to be the general community's understanding (although this is very difficult because trickers in one area may implement a rule that is to them as solid as ground and yet might be a completely foreign concept for trickers elsewhere!) Beyond that, I have included my own perspective on the areas I felt needed improvement to form an entirely sound stratification of most every movement found in martial arts tricking. |

| Q: How do you come up with this stuff? |
| Some of it is some combination of things I've read/seen/heard from other trickers either around my hometown, on the Internet, or during my travels & experience with tricking. The vast majority of it however is information I've spent hours obsessing over and I believe only came to me for two reasons; 1. I have had to learn just about every trick and combo I've learned at least twice. 2. I spend literally ALL my free time tricking or watching & analyzing tricks. When I'm injured or sick or cannot trick for whatever reason, I ONLY study tricks. I suppose some portion of my time must be devoted to eating or sleeping, but I haven't noticed any of that lately. |
