AngularJS animation card flip

I am trying to use the new AngularJS way of doing animations between page transitions and would like to incorporate a card flip (like http://jsfiddle.net/nicooprat/GDdtS/)

body {
 background: #ccc;   
}
.flip {
-webkit-perspective: 800;
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
position: relative;
margin: 50px auto;
}
.flip .card.flipped {
-webkit-transform: rotatex(-180deg);
}
.flip .card {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
-webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
-webkit-transition: 0.5s;
}
.flip .card .face {
 width: 100%;
 height: 100%;
 position: absolute;
 -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden ;
 z-index: 2;
 font-family: Georgia;
 font-size: 3em;
 text-align: center;
 line-height: 200px;
}
.flip .card .front {
 position: absolute;
 z-index: 1;
 background: black;
 color: white;
 cursor: pointer;
}
.flip .card .back {
 -webkit-transform: rotatex(-180deg);
  background: blue;
  background: white;
  color: black;
  cursor: pointer;
}

I am just a bit unsure how to update that code to make it work with AngularJS for a page transition.

Any thoughts?

I realize this was a long time ago, but I was just doing this, and it took zero javascript. The key is ng-class. Here is a JSFIDDLE.

The key is this line

<div class="card" ng-class="{'flipped':isFlipped}" ng-click="isFlipped=!isFlipped"> 

It will assign the class 'flipped' to the card when $scope.isFlipped is true. Here is a little NFL flash cards game I put together for fun. Check out the source code (which isn't super pretty), it should be helpful if you are doing something like this.
