X-out

Type of Trick: Flip / Kick

Prerequisites: Back Flip

Tricks which require a solid X-out: Full X-Out Full, X-out Full-out

Abbreviation: X

Description: A Backflip with a split-like kick executed at the zenith. While the subject flips over, the legs are chambered until the knees are pointing at the ceiling. Once they do, the legs are shot outwards into the "X-Out position" (kicked high and with both legs spread to match one's own wingspan, as the arms spread outwards). Once the legs lock out completely, they are retracted back inwards before the flip completes. This trick terminates by landing on both feet at the same time.

The X-Out should be acheived before the head of the performer points at the ground.
