To execute a "daffy" two boards are needed. Basically a daffy is a combination of a one-foot tail wheelie and a one-foot nose wheelie. The rider does a one-foot nose wheelie on one board and a one-foot tail wheelie on the other. When performed properly it is extremely impressive. 1, record 1, English, - daffy
