Fine by me as long as other lmods agree.
On the basis of it being such a simple trick, I think this should really be the only speed trick record, otherwise we'd be hard pressed to argue against the same record for other tricks.
I think as long as it fits the same definition of a flip as the most flips record, we should be alright. what I'm worried about is people doing some kind of one-footed flip where they barely go upside down, and try to pass it off as a flip. What quantifies as a flip must be clearly defined and understood by everyone and anyone wanting to attempt this.
Also I'd like to make the record more generalized and just call it 'Fastest Flip' instead of 'Fastest Back/Front Flip" if we do decide to add it. We don't need other variants.
