    Guapa is just a very nice piece of skill whereas nuts specifically means putting the ball through someone's legs.

    Does the ball stay in front of him all of the time or does he bring it around from behind for the nutmeg?

    EDIT: It's from behind!

    I can't wait to practice this one tomorrow!

    he rolls it with the left and pops it under the right, tis a hail mary in skateboarding land, seriously bendy legs and skill needed.

    theres HD versions off it , click on it and view related on youtube.
