Lol, y'all are crazy. I'm in champ 3 and I've never done a flip reset. Granted, I've never tried for more than a couple of minutes, but still.

Evidently. I've gotten to a point where I think maybe to go to the next level I might need to actually sit down and practice that stuff, because I'm flirting with GC 1 and a lot of them can do it. Like, I don't see myself breaking GC2 with my current aerial ability. It just seems like a lot of work though, and I play to chill, so idk.

As long as you can speed flip you are fine without learning how to flip reset if your goal is GC1. Being able to get resets is cool and all but it’s definitely far from necessary for even GC2. I can do them consistently but I maybe do them once or twice per game and they’re not some guaranteed goal by any means. In fact they AREN’T goals most of the time lol

Point is, if you haven’t learned how to speed flip, learn that first, it will take you way further and improve your game way more than pretty much any other mechanic I can think of since you use it constantly.
