Circular style

In March of 2010, John Ando posted a video featuring his trick Circular Eli hops. While doing standard Eli hops, he twisted his body around, changing the angle of the trick, until he had twisted all the way around to where he started.

The trick was a hit. Lots of peeps started doing it, and applying the "circular" concept to other tricks. Bucket hops, beestings, and so on.

The concept had been around since long before 2010, though. Staircases use it and, considering John's considerable 2A experience, are likely to be where he got the idea.
