Rotation
Rotation refers to the circular movement of a skateboard around its center (or point) of rotation. There are three basic types of rotation; Lateral Rotation, Axis Rotation and Transverse Axis Rotation.
Lateral Rotation
Lateral Rotation rotates around the vertical axis, like a 360 Shove-It.

Axis Rotation
Axis Rotation rotates around the long axis, like a Kickflip.

Transverse Axis Rotation
Transverse Axis Rotation sits parallel to the ground and rotates around the axial plane that divides the nose and tail, like a Carousel.
