Backside vs Frontside - Rotations
I've turned on the Trick Display in the Experimental section for the first time today. I noticed that basic backside and frontside air rotations are being displayed incorrectly. Example: When I do a FS 180 Ollie, the game says I performed a BS 180 Ollie (and vice versa). Note: This test was performed by a Goofy-footed skater.

This is definitely something that needs to be looked into by the dev's. There are in-game challenges that are telling players to perform specific air rotations. Since these are coded backwards, people who actually come from real life skateboarding (like myself) are going to be attempting these challenges and not completing them because of an oversight/technicality by developers.

If there is a developer reading this, here is the definition of FS vs BS:

Frontside and backside indicate either the front or back of the rider under the following circumstances: Regardless of which board sport you are referring to, if the rider is not spinning it indicates which side is facing the "wave" on approach. This can be many things, rail, pipe wall, or slope/implied slope. If the rider is spinning it will indicate which side of the rider is first to face in the direction of travel. The only exception to this rule is fakie as there is an implied 180 degree rotation already completed causing the expression to be reversed.

Thank you.

They know the problem. Also is the trick display marked as experimental and very early in development. The in-game challenges are taking the directions most of the time right and not like shown, but there is still plenty of other stuff wrong with the challenges. The problem is mostly skating goofy, but atm we goofies have to live with the pain.
