Thanks, my purpose is not "how to do flick in Jive" but "is there any document of ISTD or IDSF/WDSF to define what is the flick".

I checked the last edition (6th) in 2003 of Latin Technique of Walter Laird but can not see any word "flick" in this book. If you see, please let me know in what edition, and page. Thanks.

Well, my copy of Walter Laird, "The Laird Technique of Latin Dancing" 6th edition 2003 does mention the word "flick" in the description of a Ball Change on page 202 under "Action Used" for both the man and the lady.

Thanks, Walter Laird only use "Ball Change", not "Kick/Flick Ball Change" but he still use the word "flick" in action used collumn.

And for ISTD or IDSF, any one find any document related to "Flick"?

There is a detailed treatment of the Kick/Flick actions in the Ball Change on p223 of Hearn's 'Technique of Advanced Latin-American Figures'.
