 Skateboarding trick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tricks which require some kind of ramp, sometimes a half-pipe, are known as transition tricks; the rest can be performed on flat ground or off of curbs and on rails and are known as street tricks.
This trick's name was originally given to a freestyle trick where the skater stands on the truck of the board while the board balances on the tail.
This trick is where the skater rotates 180 degrees and lands in the center of his board with the front trucks facing towards the ramp and the back trucks over the lip.

Last trick group: the result of the game depends entirely on the last trick: the objective can be to win it, to avoid winning it, or to play the lowest card to it.
Point trick games are so called because the cards have point values, and the result is determined not by the number of tricks taken, but by the total point value of cards taken.

 village voice > film > Trick no treat by Dennis Lim
Trick's protagonist, Gabriel (Christian Campbell), is a model of bland, lowest-common- denominator appeal—a musical composer but not a drama queen, dorky but kinda cute, shy but kinky in an unthreatening way (his fantasy is to be serviced while he plays the piano).
Trick draws on audience empathy for Gabe—alienated Everygay—and revels in the reassuring accessibility of an idealized object of desire.
Post-Sundance raves have claimed that Trick represents a new, agenda-free brand of gay film (call it the Gay Gay Cinema), "revolutionary" (as more than one reviewer has frothed) precisely for its lack of revolutionary qualities.

 the Indian rope trick
P'u tells the story of this "strange trick" as if he were an eyewitness "as a little boy." He also notes that he had subsequently heard that the trick could be done "by the White Lily sect," a secret society in China whose origin dates to the fourteenth century.
This alleged trick, reportedly witnessed by thousands of people, involves an Indian fakir who throws a rope to the sky, but the rope does not fall back to the ground.
At one point he and Richard Wiseman wrote in Nature that the results of their investigation supported the notion that belief in the trick was due to the 'exaggeration effect': the greater the time between seeing something and telling a story about it, the more a person tends to exaggerate the impressiveness of the event.
