Description: A Butterfly Twist landed on the opposite leg by way of overrotating the twist.

A trick in which a 540° twist is being executed while the body rotates 180° through the transverse plane (a flatspin). This trick is executed from the "butterfly" setup, and the wrap for the twist occurs at the same time you would kick up the back leg in the Butterfly Kick. The landing should feel similar to landing a Butterfly Kick.
