Encyclopedia > Caballerial

Caballerial, or cab, is an aerial skateboarding trick. It is an other name for a non-grabbed fakie 360 ollie (a grabbed fakie 360 goes by the un-PC name of a "gay twist"). The Caballerial was named after the inventor Steve Caballero, who invented the trick in the early 1980s. The trick was originally performed on vert ramps or pools but has since been adapted to flatground. The half-cab is a variation of the caballerial and as the name suggests it is a 180 rotation (either frontside or backside) rather than the full 360.
