[Neto1457]

[biggideal]

[cheeseygymnast]

omg you are amazing!! everything was so neet and perfect and you seemed to have endless spring!! :O

[TigersTumbler987]

this was amazing!!!! :)

[ptork66]

You're very...springy. Why does that not kill your ankles? I love doing gymnastics outside, it just kills so much. What's your secret? (Also: Your front aerial is really clean. I hope mine looks that good one day soon.)

[raclip02]

@ptork66 I can tumble and do double fulls on the grass, as well. I learned all of my tumbling on either a mat or grass, never learned on the spring floor. When I go to the spring floor. I have friends who have learned everything on spring floor and when it comes to grass, some throw their tumbling and others don't,. You just gotta get used to doing it and make sure you use technique.

[ptork66]

You're very...springy. Why does that not kill your ankles? I love doing gymnastics outside, it just kills so much. What's your secret?

[gymdog915]

That was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen

[TheCheerdude91]

You are a beautifuly trained gymnast. Great job bro! And who cares if he is gay you're all jealous!

[smarties627]

OMG UR GAY and im better than u and im 4 years old HA

[136105]

[SuperSongwritter]

tell everyone that says u need a spring floor too make ur tumbling pretty tell them to watch u oh and i would love to see how high ur tumbling in on a spring floor....WOW

[Julian20o8]

Dude this is tight. You're hella good!

[Sinan9330]

its look very cool respekt



[nessieisyummy]

superrr clean. this is amazingg you make it look effortless.

[FluroNikkie]

Must Be Hard On Grass, From My Experiance & Fails, I Can Barely Do I Backsault On Thick Grass. :S

[AfroPK]

@FluroNikkie Why does it matter if you are on grass or tumbling floor when you are doing a standing tuck?

[martinav1293]

wow your amazing ... you move like an artistic gymnast more then a power on ... just amazing good job =]

[iluvcandyXD]

Finally, a guy who can tumble that has good form... most of the tumbling videos I've seen with guys hit the stunts, but are just too sloppy and it takes away from the tumbling. Your form overshadows what tricks you can land people remember that :P Good job!

[justinbobb123]

you are freaking insane thts so good

[TheOriginalBoarders]

I believe 'graceful', 'elegant', and 'awesome' are the best words to describe your tumbling! Good job!

[wannabefameous1]

You look really graceful when you tumble:)

[Nkrille]

your soo fucking cool!

[CheerleaderKayla10]

Gymnast? cause im a cheerleader :) im workin on layouts and punch front step outs

[tomderoon]

Hi

Thats the best ive seen, what are the key things to do a backhandspring so well as you do?

[jrg305]

You're my role model. Huge crush. Plus I"m starting late in life on this stuff....

[QkninjaQk]

Amazing o:

[AlexPanacro]

dude your freaking sick

[EddieCheerGymnast]

Damn you are so good especially for grass!

[Flo9fr]

[massoccer101]

wow so gracefull

[backflipboy27]

@gymnast768  yes, and I don't care one bit what you think

[gymnast768]

@backflipboy27 i told you i support gays. i dont see why people are so against guys. all you guys did was ever love someone, and thats no crime. gays should have full rights, in my opinion. theres no reason you guys shouldnt have them

[nyaKAVAJ]

what*s the name of the song!pls...pls!!!

[HelloxoBecca]

You're really good, good job. :D

[raclip02]

This is really, really good.

[natannatan1987]

[ajcanflip]

[Yomonthe300]

[devoncarlos]

[sexygal17]

[Bcutter]

Wow, so clean! Most youtube videos are messy shit.

Great websters, unbelievable!

[JuicyPrincess127]

[urbantricker]

Very nice double fulls

[samraniak]

[kattydelin]

[MrSnups]

Sweet wep on the grass... What do you call the jump where you do a frontflip in stright up posisotion, with your legs spread apart????

[houdiinii]

its a webster

[Horhayj]

So I'm surfing youtube looking at tumbling videos and I come across a video of my neighbor of 18 years. It's a small world.

[backflipboy27]

oh yeah? who are you?

[Horhayj]

@backflipboy27

David from across the alley.

[Majornelson30897]

[backflipboy27]

no idea, took it off the audio swap because youtube deleted my first song

[jjjamie12]

[CheerBoooy]

You are very good! :D

[uwoeric]

I loved that RO-Piked Arabian you did, looks great! I'm trying to learn that combo.

[dingidonga]

This was awesome =9

[lucascampelovianna]

*Are you the guy that do beam series? (I wrote agy, sorry. Nooffense, this idea never walks in my mind, sorry.

[lucascampelovianna]

I loved your arabian pike. Are you the gay that do beam series?

[amour777]

Yeah, because it's completely fair to compare a random guy to an Olympic gold medalist and expect him to hold up.

His were extremely tight, clean and elegant.

[greenkiwi689]

Yea, that comment was like 3-4 months old. :/ I was only complaining that this guy performed girl moves that shouldn't be done by guy gymnasts (Watch his beam skills and then you'll get what I'm saying.)

[amour777]

Male gymnasts do not perform those moves when they compete, but they still practice them. It is important to because they are basic skills which teach good body control and placement.

[greenkiwi689]

... No. Guys do NOT work front ariels or backhand step-out.

[amour777]

I don't know where you're from, and maybe they do things differently were you are, but HERE, I've personally watched young male gymnasts working them in the gym.

[greenkiwi689]

.... Well your gym probably doesn't have much talent. Are you sure you're not talking about a cheer leading gym. If you were I'd totally understand, cheer leaders do suck.

[amour777]

Not much talent? It's a fantastic gym, and it is not a cheer gym.

Steffi does double backs piked on the floor. Hannah does triples like they're nothing. And they're both 13. 

They are the best I'll admit, but it is a good gym with a great coach.

[greenkiwi689]

1) Double pikes are only a "C" I believe and triples aren't that advanced. You obviously have no clue what MALE gymnastics is all about, please try again later.

[toxicyoshininja]

he taught himself a front ariel idk if he practices beam though maybe cuz of the BHS-split jump

[cheergirrl101]

That was AMAZING :)

[sgguitarist2112]

very smooth. Liked the dubfull

[Hisoka365]

Wow, very very nice tumbling. Everything was so nice and clean! GJ

[SCSgurlz]

dude! thats beast! you have awesome form 2!! dont see that very often with boy gymnasts!

[natcomber13]

wow, your tumbling is really good!

Your almost exactly like my friend Andy, the first two moves in this vid are exactly the sort of thing he would do. Beautuful back twisting too.

[faith543]

wow did u do gymnastics or something?

[FedeXVI]

nice vid!!!! so clean =D

[xochipepe]

amazing!

[titozuma]

thats perfect tumbling ! nice job ! and nice flips!

[ChoFrog09]

Double full? On grass? You are a beast my friend, kudos.

[hobielover]

That must really take a lot of effort and practice!

[AhmadFrenzel]

beautiful. so clean and so much style

[greenkiwi689]

your good but, umm you did some girl moves in there that kinda freaked me out a little.

[backflipboy27]

sounds like someone has gender identity issues

[MariaVana]

i agree obviously someone doesnt kno much about the amount of strength and skill those "girl moves" take

[GymBuggey]

Yea he probably does know but its wierd to do those if you are a boy!

[DuhustBus000]

wow youre amazing how long does it take you to get this good.

[proxnobody]

technically some of those are girl moves....but he did them wayyyyyy better than most girls Ive seen so yeah hes a beast

[AxTraceur]

[frededalle]

[LEtRipPR]

Taste, power, race & grace. Do not stop. Glory will adorn those who exult.Keep going.....

[JoePresentsWTF]

my skills back if i was a level 8

when i left and i've been gone for

3 years. :/

[gymnastfrommars7]

wow nice

great form, u can get real high on that grass it's amazing

[FlashKick23]

wow pure gymnast....your moves are real neat.ur start and ur landing are great....and ur backhandsprings are sexy man keep it up

[AcrobaticArt]

Wow.....!!!!!!!

Love it! You are nice and neat.

Can you give me some tips? Please??!! lol

How did you manage to get the webster? And how do you avoid shinsplints? Though i think me getting shinsplints might be a lot to do with how cold it is here, but yea, i haven't had them in a while which is good . :)

[backflipboy27]

I don't do anything specific to avoid shin splints. I simply don't get them. What's a webster?

[AcrobaticArt]

Ah, you lucky.

Umm, well webster is the only name I know for it, its the front handspring without the hands.

Maybe there is a difference in technique for some people to call it a webster? No idea, what do you call it?

[backflipboy27]

its name in gymnastics is a front ariel

[3920962]

hi can you help me with my front aerial or at least tellme what to do i can do a flawless aerial but i would loveto use a front aerial in my dances

[backflipboy27]

I would need to see it to help you but in general you need to spot the ground as long as you can and drive your leg hard

[Ajzaek]

nice!

[whipback]

How did you learn to do a front ariel?

[backflipboy27]

I taught myself

[gymnst920]

That's hot!

[kristeena13]

haha thats awesome kirby.

[dragu88]

[riddler5882000]

[GymnasticsAddict]

Did the camera just fall off the table at the end? haha

[backflipboy27]
