double backflip

has anyone ever done or seen someone do a double backflip on a trampoline? i wanted to try one but i wanted to know if it was possible first.

 
I have seen it... It's only suggested for someone that can spin really fast and jump super high.

I will be attempting them this weekend on the Water-Ramp at Lake Placid...

I saw a guy at camp working on double backs on the tramps. They were spinning really fast and were tucked up if that's any help. Only thing was they weren't opening at the right time.

 
i know two people who did double backs and stuck them on tramps, my little bro, and this snowboarder named sean

a snowboarder who worked at the camp i worked at could do double backflips, inverted 9's and just about everythign you can think of. and he can do all of this shit on snow too

yeah i did that a few years ago doing a front flip and went way forward and my legs came stragiht down onto the metal bar and got some type of fracture or something like that

 
I have done a few double backs and a few double fronts but have since stopped doing them. Its a rush the first few timse but they are pretty sketchy unless you get a ton of air. i scraped my head against the mat a few times and that was pretty scary. I've cracked my neck pretty bad a few times too. If you can get a ton of air go for it though.

 
at attatash this year i saw some trampoline dude do 3 frontflips with a 180 at the end. it was sick. he did double back like they were nothing!

i tried a double front (dont know why, my fronts arnt all thats great) and i did like 1 and a quarter and slipped and chunked my back on the bar. hurt for a while.

 
ya at sugarbush i was tehre for the budweiser aerial assault, they had the bronze medalist for trmapoline from the olympics. he was doing all sorts of triple and double flips. he could also land on his back and do 2 and a half backs, shit like that.

i have a cool signature
 
i saw an attempted double backflip, not pretty

I have done a few double fronts, and tried double lincolns.... I have landed the fronts, and came pretty close on the double lincoln a couple of times. they are really fast though, you need more air. like off a big air jump or something. yea.

 
Ive seen jeff thomas do em he has video of it somewhere..

On tramp. I can do flare to front, barani to back, double front, I tried to do double back tweo times and I wasn't able to stop my spin and landed on my back... the reason why I can do them is because iJump somethin like 13 feets in the air without anyone to helpm me to get more air on the tramp. I've got a sick picture of myself grabbing a huntony at the same height than the roof of a house

quebec, how do you get so much air? do you have one of those trampolines with the extra long springs that the gymnastic guys use?

I Am Not A Losre
 
no, I jsut have a normal tramp but I use all the power of my skier legs to jump as hight as I can and it throw me really hight

a littl e bit less but near 15 feet or more, I think, it is enought to scare my grand mother so she dont want me to jump anymore.... but I dont care about it

ve tried double fronts, but i cant commit, once i get to 1 1/2 i just open up and land on my stomach. i dont wanna land on my head.

What choo talkin' 'bout Willis?
 
I've seen people do them on the big tramps or gymnastics floors but never on a normal tramp.

Just cross the spring on the tramp and you'll fly like a fly......

this is funny: fly like a fly.....

maybe it is not funny at all....

I've crossed the springs, and if I try and work more than like 6/7 feet I just hit the ground in the middle.

'Who ordered the turkey club?' the waitress yelled across the small diner.
'I did!' The man excitedly replied.
Promptly, an over-excited turkey ran out from the back and beat the man to death with a large wooden bat.
 
I've seen gymnasts do triples and stuff on tramps. They're insane.

My friend once told me about this gymnastics video where the guy did a backflip with 8 spins in it.

That's nuts.

ya i did them a lot until i broke my ankle doing one cuz i had a bit too short of a bounce and came down right on my ankle awkward it was like turned inwards and it bent over ontop of itself i watched the entire thing happen wasn't too pretty haha but ya they are fairly simple juss huck and tuck if you can get hold of a crash pad or something even better!!! flip faster than you think you will need to on your first attempt and fully commit!!!
 
My first (and only) dub back attempt, I landed on my neck. My neck was sore for a week. I think dub flats are easier to spot.
