Up-trick vs Side-trick

up-trick vs side-trick. Which is better? Some of you may say that it depends I'm the track, but can you pLease be more specific? Thanks.

It's all about the landing and the texture of the track. Up tricks give you more air and more stability. Side tricks are good for low jumps (such as the last jump on Toad's Factory). But, if you have a super high jump that is impossible to get a low jump on, I would recommend side tricks because it is easier to get an insta-wheelie after you land.

So for low tricks, I use side tricks, and for high jumps, I also use side tricks. So what you're saying is, up tricks are playing safe, but it's slower, side tricks are the best? What about the backflip, from the down trick?

Speed doesn't matter, it's the same... it's just a matter of airtime.

You don't really have a choice if you're a wheeler.

Up trick.

Side tricks from what I've noticed.

Side tricks from what I've noticed.

So I will side trick everything.

I've personally noticed that side tricks are much better as well.

Then, it's concluded. Side tricks are the best therefore we should side trick everything.
