I removed the following paragraph from the article, since it was incorrectly placed and it's content sounds more like a rant than a Wikipedia article. Please review it and edit it's content into the article properly. Tp 12:30, 13 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The reverse of this trick is NOT the Anti-Casper. The reverse casper is simply a Switch Casper. This is a common mistake done by street skateboarders. Many freestyle skateboarders know that an Anti-Casper and Switch Casper are different. In order for an Anti-Casper to qualify as a REAL Anti-Casper, you must do half of an impossible or a vertical 180 degree flip into a switch Casper. An example is popping the tail of your board and getting your front foot up, at which the board will do a 180 vertical flip, half of an impossible. What was originally your tail will end up in the front, and your back foot that popped the board will end up UNDER the board, your front foot that you brought to the air in the beginning can fall onto the underside of the tail that is now the nose that has come to the front, you have just entered the Anti-Casper position. It's the same as a Switch Casper except the way you enter the trick is what separates the two.

Merge[edit]

I changed this merge tag to point to Freestyle skateboarding tricks, where there is already a Casper section. Nick Number (talk) 17:28, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
