Front flip over the knuckles of jumps?

Or a big drop, something like that...How difficult is it? I've never done a flip on skis but i have the biggest urge to try it. There are some pretty big knolls and knuckles I have access to. My best trick is a 540 mute or 720 tucked, and I'm not sure if I can do it. It seems like a low-ish risk trick, but i'm really uncertain.

Feedback?
 
So much this. My friend did a ninja-flip off a mini booter and his skis didn't release. He got lucky with a broken Fibia and Tibia in the same leg.
 
I have a friend who broke his ski doing this. He was probably lucky it wasn't his leg. OP, go for it but know that you will probably land on your back the first few times.
 
just throw it and commit. with enough speed you'll tuck it around. you might take a binding to the ass but the thrill will be worth it my dude. best of luck

This for sure. Also , backflips are way easier to land. When I frontflip I feel like im guessing when to untuck, backflips you can see the landing the whole time
 
I was thinking of doing this too. I'm 155 pounds boot size 26.5, and my DIN is set at 6.5. Is this low enough to not break my leg/skis?
 
you beat me to the punch (pun intended). But really just find a jump thats not too big and throw it, it's easier than throwing off a knuckle because you really have to throw it hard
