What is a RICK ROLL?
To send someone a link to 80s pop star Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" video, making them believe that they're gonna see something completely different - source: URBANDICTIONARY.COM
Because I loved this Rick James track and with a variety of "roll" moves, the trendy term seemed fitting.
Just to have a little fun, don't be surprised if you get a Rick Astley song swap by the DJ.
Can't remember the steps of that Intermediate dance playing? Just RICK ROLL the dance floor and do something different by using this as a floor-split.
