So, Backflips..

[uosdwiSrjewoH]

So i was doing backflips on a tramp, and on one i went a little big almost went off the tramp. I was a little shaken, but i felt okay. I tryed to do it again, and it happened again. Instead of saying all my other trys, i cant do backflips without travelling about 8 feet, and i can't do them standing at all anymore. Anyone have any suggestions on how i could get my groove back?

try jumping first. then when you are fully in the air throw the flip.

 

[Smuffy]

pretty much the best way t do it.

 

[babujib]

yeah and throw your arms up above your head until your ready to steeze it out with some laid out

 

[Tinga]

yeah jump straight up and dont tilt your head back sooooo much

 

[Ski_Midwest]

gahh i have the exact same problem

 

[smooticus]

Yea that happened to me like 6 months ago,, now i can rarely get the nerve to even try.. just dont stop trying them,, you dont want to lose it

Ok, I hate how often this is said, but SEARCHBAR. I wrote up a really good tutorial on exactly this question very recently.

and bounce off your toes, also instead of pulling yeah body back pull your legs up

All the people I know that can backy have had that problem usually ending up in catching their feet on the top of the net. I had it aswell but went right over the net and landed right on the outer ring. Kinda put me off for a bit.

Pretty easily corrected though just make sure you bounce up and then try the flip or try and jump forward a lil bit when you throw the flip.

yeah i had that problem, but you have to jump first THEN flip cuz if u dont, youre flyin off the tramp

 

[SK1ERDUDE]

Get a net cuz then you wont fall off

 

[Smuffy]

nets are the way to go.

 

[SkiUnit03]

just make sure you are jumping strait up when you are doing them, no need to delay the flip.

yay for radacialiously danktacular trick manuvers.

 

[KravtZ]

yea i do the same thing to its real annoying but i dont go on tramps a lot but i thelps in pools off diving boards and rocks so u can get extra bounce and distance

 

[Meh42]

Just focus on jumping up rather than back. I think everyone has that problem when they start doing backflips. It's just a phase

 

[Black-Bandanna]

Jump up, not back. Focus on something in front of you until you can't look at it anymore while throwing the flip.
