bnt is not bad, its just peeps going full mode traditionalism. I personally wished TBN moves like bnt because it unlocks a lot of movement and more beginner friendly imo. As for tricking we started doing backflips -> scoot corks -> cheat setups -> double corks. Each trends was remarkable but now the player innovation has been rather stagnant. Most trickers has been just trying to mimic Flash have done back in 2014, well there is nothing wrong with that, I see a lot of new players adopt quickly from their predecessors success with more control and precision to gaining momentum, but now you see the same setup over and over again its beginning to look 'boring' yet technically its improve than ever before. Its been years since I've seen replays actually do decent handsprings setup. I still like that Oblivion replay to this day.
