To do a trick (or have some key part of it) opposite or "upside down" with respect
to the original trick.
Retracted
Skate on toe wheel; intended to be opposite of Extended for most tricks, without
using the term Inverted (and thus creating confusion).

Animaniacs.
Yard Sale
Does this belong in a glossary or in a lingo section?
Displacing at least half the course (10-15 cones), leaving them scattered,
as are items in a yardsale. Also used: popcorn.
