Poweriser Front Flip Training - Jurassic Jumpers

[captingjakey]

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!! I love it how you so all the hard work needed to do front flips, because it is very hard and I should know 'coz I'm trying to do them on my pro-jumpers but it's very hard especially to get the confidence. If you guys could give me one tip on doing front flips on Jumping stilts what would it be? I'm really annoyed 'coz I would so join your club but I live to far away :'(. Anyway keep up the good work guys and post more videos :D

[deadninga]

@richgrundy do any of you guys understand the concept of LEARNING

cause you guys started off bad and seemed to leave even worse

[jack29292]

arnt you special deadninga

[theFlipJack]

are knee bars uncomfortable? do they hurt after a while?  i'm deciding between 7's, poweriser 08 and pro jumps. any advice?

[feebus]

pfft... well i think its rad! If you have a pair of powerisers; you would then realize how hard it is to pull off tricks!!!

[deadninga]

@feebus yea it's not nearly as hard as they make it out to be

[Robotsokka]

What do you have on the paws? you had something special? good video. Show how hard it is to flip.

[iT0rtur3]

The one of you that do the frontflip, should try without matts :D

[drizzit0000]

im 7 stone, does and one know if the powerisers that are 8-11 stone be fine for me?

[aaaah909]

i dnt see why this was posted in the first place

[crapscape]

how come most of the comments are so abusive? like "they suck" this is a training session so they are gonna fall alot but this is the whole point of a gym so you can fall on your arse on a mat rather than on concrete. so maybe try giving positive feedback?

[Pocketcupz]

i wanna try filpping in mine but i got no were to do it??

Do i really need mats?

or is there anywere i can do it in newcastle.. comment back on my page if anyone knows

[marmas5]

i think if you can find a place with soft dirt and thick grass it wont be

TOO painful :D

[lovesknives777]

wait maybe not

[lovesknives777]

how the guy in white is wearin two diff bocks

[Eturian]

him in red suck? ... clearly you're not looking at the guy in white. Red guy is at least getting somewhere... slowly.

[Eturian]

aww everyone's being so mean :P

Cleeeearly it's all deliberate and instructional.

Black shirt guy is showing us how to front-flip. Red shirt is showing us how to deliberately land two meters away on our arse, and white shirt is clearly deliberately showing us how to land on our backs after failing to make use of a run-up. 1:30 being the best example. heh.

seriously though; unless the other two were blindfolded while mr blackshirt was jumping, how did they not realise they were doing it wrong?

[Zorlok77]

whats the best type? Air-Trekkers? 7 league boots? idk what I should get. and also, where can i buy a cheap blue mat u guys are practicing on? and are jumping stilts bad on ur knees? could they ruin my knees for all my life?

[A3261fan]

thats suck!

[GryphisOne]

NOOO! You do NOT take your power rizers on sand!!

[CrYsiS4444]

Yellow and Red Suck !

[estensl]

him in red suck!

[DrewP83]

the feather dude sucks, get some better powerizers and don't put girly decorations on them you pansy

[PikoParty]

your trying to do a flip wrong... no offense. you need to do a straight jump, then tuck. if you start tucking as your jumping, you will not get your full jump off, and do what the one in the red shirt is at 2:12. I don't powerstilt, but i have done trampoline, and the basics of a flip is the same. Also, if you do a straight jump then tuck, you will land closer to where you took off, and can do multiple in a row.

[nordisch76]

who is singing the song?could you please help me quickly?thanks

[vitr1ol]

modest mouse

[CrashHorn]

Modest Mouse i think the song is Dashboard but i dont really know

[Shawzy147]

[iwhagei]

[carloselmuzas]

oh!!! very cool!!

hi from spain

[merohero2]

[utubeteam6]

the guy with the fethers sucks

[Adrenaluke]

Forget Any Haters, U Guys Are Awesome.

[showgun11]

your so shit

[richgrundy]

Thanks for your kind input, always appreciated!

[atubbyseal]

@showgun11 bet u couldnt do that

[fusslteppich]

what the hell are you doing?!?...losers

[richgrundy]

Haha, says someone who spends all there time on the computer making 3d models and crap animations.

Glad you like the video :)

[M0U53Y]

The guy at 1:20 nailed it! serious props to him :)

Do what he does, throw your arms and tuck, i've got a video of my frontflip training on my channel, go check it out if you want to see some more technique

[fusslteppich]

sry for that stupid comment...i really regret having said this

actually i think it's a cool thing what you're doing...i'm probably just jealous because in my area i'm the only one with powerisers and don't have a community like you...don't notice mistakes, english is not my mother tongue

[DevonCh40]

All the other two have to do is throw the flip. Im a gymnast and look, the only one that is landing them is throwing his arms over his head to get rotation, the others are just kinda flopping into it.

[DeadEndRoad96]

the kid in the wifebeater is a moron.. y would you run up to the mat if you're just going to stop and loose all momentum just to half-ass a "flip" if you can call it that

[sewell2112]

TRUE DAT

[lonsimi]

2:48

I just broke my nose by landing like that

[richgrundy]

Gutted, I assume you were flipping onto concrete and not a nice soft crash mat though.

[fela9307]

Lmao, they are all crap. especially the one in white and the one in red.

[kjeksy]

haha the guy in the blue shorts sux

[loffeman1154]

Yeah, but who gives a damn if he is funny while he's sucking :P

[calzs1988]

ok the guy who got it fair play the other two u suck like bin laden. try jumpin up not forward simple physics people.

[Isaac476]

the dude who got it had the right idea but the other 2 guys... wen doing a flip u need to jump UP not forwards

but Hooray!! for the dude who did get it

(i probably won't b much better wen i get my pair though) :P

[herland91]

the only one with a little skills was the guy that did the flips....rest of you sucks! Big time!!!

[richgrundy]

Everybody has to start somewhere, its called learning.

The guy in the red top is now doing front flips, barinis and backflips and is still learning more.

I'd like to see you do better

[Desimonizacja]

awesome!!!!

[LilBriggsy]

Im gunna get some of these, but I want to know if there is a group near my area which practice like you do, in a hall with crash mats. How would i go about finding out wether theres a group near my area?

Great video btw =] (Y)

[richgrundy]

Sign up on a forum called PoweriserPages, can easily be found using google.

Where abouts are you from?

[LilBriggsy]

Cool, erm I live in eastwood near southend on sea =)

[richgrundy]

You are right in the middle of a huge group called the Essex PowerBockers.

If you sign up on PoweriserPages you can contact Becky (Group Organiser) on there as she is a very active member.

If you want Becky's email then send me a message

[LilBriggsy]

Oh right awesome. yeah ive heard of those =)

im not sure if i would use the powerisers that much tho =\

[markeyboy9944]

2:30 lol niice try buddy.. they r probably better than me if i even got them

[una2020]

kl!

looks gd

Guys can u really go on sand/grass/dirttrak and still run or jump? These look wiked and im gonna buy sum offa ebay!

[richgrundy]

Yeah, you can go on different terrains but you have to be careful not to slip on some when its wet.

I also advise staying away from ebay, ProJumps are 135 pounds and they come with excellent customer service as well or if you can afford it get 7leagueboots which are much higher quality but also cost more.

Hope this helps

[justme211y]

lol @ white vest

[TheWanze]

great song and great moonwalk on 3.32 =)

[tomazzin]

How long did it take for you to get the flip?

Can you do it without the powerisers? I'm asking because I can't flip without stilts and I'm willing to learn how to do it with them...

[richgrundy]

It's taken around 6 hours i suppose. I had no previous gymnastic experience just done a few front flips on a friends trampoline, i definatly can't do them from the ground.

The best way to learn is find a local sports hall with some crash mats and explain to them what you want to do. Some are fine with it others don't let you in.

Where abouts are you?

You nevever know there might be a group local to you already having gym sessions.

[mikey9204]

the guy in the full red t-shirt looks like gibbo and the guy in white looks like Q :)

[richgrundy]

Full red shirt is Joe and yeah white is Q

[mikey9204]

lolz and i took ALOT of advice from him :)

[Tehevilpie]

That was awesome. I intrested in coming to that gym but im in suffolk ;( You dont happen to know if theres a gym like that near cambridge or bury st edmunds?

[powerizers101]

try tucking more

[Dispect]

If you wish to do front flip do a turn in air more quickly..u are doing turn like snails

[richgrundy]

Its harder than it looks, each stilt weighs around 4kg so having that weight on your legs makes it harder to spin quickly.

Also, none of us have any prior gymnastic or trampolining experience so our technique may be lacking quite a bit.

[sarkasmi83]

Good to know, since that's exactly what I'd be dealing with. No gymnastic/flip experience :) I'm SO considering buying the powerizer G3 2007 upwings, but I'm still hesitating if it'd be worth it... "What if I just suck"- keeps getting back to my head :D .. but it's still fun, right?

[richgrundy]

Where abouts are you from?

It's pretty hard to suck, you may be a slower learner but even if you can only jump 1 foot its still so much fun

[sarkasmi83]

Yeah, well usually I have been a quick learner and my balance is ok. (I have snowboarded for 5 years, tried skateboarding etc..)

And yeah, I'm from Finland, so too bad there's snow on the ground right now. Can't wait for the summer :)

[richgrundy]

Green guy is me =D

If you want more info sign up on poweriserpages or check out the jurassic jumpers website.

[mikey9204]

allready have done :)

[mikey9204]

the guy in green is amazing! the guy with the yellow fluffy things in the white shirt keeps jumping sideways :S good work keep at it!

[richgrundy]

Im guessing you mean the guy in the red t-shirt, it's only his 2nd session so yeah he has got bits to work on, thanks for the advice anyway =D

[sarkasmi83]

Yeah, I'd say he'd have to try jump more UPWARDS than forwards.. He seemed to do that alot ;P But good effort though! And I definately wouldn't do it better, so what am I to say anything :D Just been hearing alot of the technique.. prepping myself already ;I

[lee31392]

hey bit of advice, I'm no expert so I'm not gunna act like it, but your jumping too far forwards, try doing it statically
