Is an Endo or Stoppie a better term?

Question

My friend is arguing.

Answer 1

A stoppie is when you apply the front brakes hard enough to bring the rear wheel(s) off the ground for a short distance or amount of time intentionally.

An endo, is when you do the above and go completely over and land upside down. Or, if you come off of a jump, or hit a hole and go end over end forwards.

Answer 2

Endo sounds more professional and stoppie is a wrong term because it is like you are doing it unintentionally, by trying to come to a halt but thats not the case since you don't really have to actually stop by doing an endo. I think endo best describes the movement.

Answer 3

I always like to say stoppie... sounds cooler

Answer 4

a stoppie is more of a slang version of endo.. most people prefer stoppie.. its mainly just a preference.. pick one and call it that..

Answer 5

Gotta go with Endo Callarissian
