360 with no handle pass. You put the handle above your head.

Rodeo is essentially an off-axis spin. It doesn't really apply to wakeboarding because we just call them "off-axis spins". It's from other sports (snowboarding) where you kind of cork out a spin into an almost fliplike spin.

Example ('rodeo' 540):

Unless of course by 'whats a rodeo' you're asking about bullriding and horses and stuff, in which case I have no idea really.

Yeah pretty much. A spin w/ no handle pass is called ole, unless you really just flip instead of get a true spin (think ole TS 540 vs Scarecrow, almost the same trick).

Clarification:

A spin where you put the handle above your head. Technically you can land wrapped and spin w/o a handle pass, but thats something different altogether.

This snowboarding tricks looks more like a frontside cork 540..

this is more a like a fs rodeo 540 because he's completely inverted : http://picot.tristan.free.fr/image/tristan9.jpg

here is the backside version of the rodeo : http://www.snowboardclub.co.uk/grafix/riders/marcandretarte/90rollseq.jpg

it looks better and it's the same thing as a tantrum to blind.
