FOREWORD
This edition of the OldSchoolFreestyle.com Kicktionary is the worlds first reference guide to the world of the Kickturns. Thought to have died long ago with the use of coaster brakes, this trick has been kept alive by a dedicated group of riders who have joined forces to make this guide possible. Though a coaster brake is not necessary for doing a kickturn, it allows the rider the freedom to pull many variations otherwise unattainable. This reference will show you the rider the seemingly endless variety of ways to go up a slanted slope and turn yourself and the bike around while eliciting the delightful awe of your peers.
Introduction - A Brief History
The Kickturn came about as a way for a rider to turn the bike around on a transition such as a quarter-pipe or skatepark wall. It then migrated to what became known as a "small ramp" and to natural terrain such as banks and ditches. The angle desired for kickturns can vary, but usually a range of 30 to 45 degrees is preferred for this manuever. There are several preferred places to do Kickturns ,first is the small ramp( aka Kickturn ramp ) the second is a banked area usually found in most city centers.
