  • What is the easiest, most safe flip you know and can teach?

  • Hey epic, listen I have an important question, what kind of vertical do you have, I have a two foot vert, is that good enough to do a full?

  • Hey epic love all of ur vids thanks finally rememberd that you have this tutorial but im having a problem i keep doing a 540 and stumble back and i cant control it . but i know that when i reach 360 i still have enough high to land perfect but if i try a 720 i still just get a 540 so hopfully u can help me or do i have to not whip my hands as hard ??? ok tyvm hope you read this

  • it basicly like a cork except you wouldnt start how peple usally stasrt this time is a backflip mix with cork

  • ji ho

  • Hey Epic 1, your video is the one I needed to watch. Your video is the most elaborate(helpful) to me. I shall attempt the full twist today. [I know how to do the standing back tuck perfectly.]

  • Hey Epic 1, you're tutorial video was just what I needed to watch. I've been looking for an instructional video, such as yours, and your video is the most elaborate(more better). I shall go attempt it. [I know how to a back tuck perfectly.]

  • ive been learning my flips from u and i need help on how to improve my backflip 180 can u check it out tellin me how to improve

  • Slumdog Millionaire!

  • Heyy EPIC !

    I really wana try these!

    I have all my basic flips down cept fulls :(

    I have no Gym but sandpit a always practice at. Im just afriade i might land on neck or something

  • check my videos out :L

  • Pro!

  • 2:55 wasn't actually slow motion. Epic just floated.

  • Never throw your head back, doesn't matter if you're street tumbler or a gymnast.

  • @LandonJohnson31 Clearly it isn't hurting anything.

  • @LandonJohnson31 I throw my head back on my roundoff backs. Doesn't hurt the flip at all. Sure, I don't get as much height, but quite frankly, I don't give a damn xD

  • aw i try but the first landing is my head hahaha

  • i thought osama was dead :S

  • sooo can you help me bro? when i do this trick i always land on my knees... im not afraid to do it but should i jump more up or more sideways (to get more twist)?

  • @2kidsfreestyle it'll help more to jump more up. if you're landing on your knees facing the same direction that you started from, you dont need to improve the twist. jumping up will give you more time to flip, so you'll land on your feet.

  • what is best to try first cork or a standing full??

  • @LucasPorst1995 try a full off of somthing, get the back full idea in your head, and then cork.

  • well i did the standing full but how the hell did you do the 180 360 540 in a row???? lmao

  • @pballa321123 I had the same problem

    I used the technique were you trick your body

    You should go outside after gym and bust a backflip a few times and then the next day just get in peace and quiet and pretend your at the gym that's how I did mine

  • Hey When you said have it down. Iv been trying for over a month now to get my back flip I can walk in a gym. And just bust it. I have even been doing it on the cement in the gym to get use to it . But I can't make myself do it outside. I can throw them like when I walk out of the gym but the next day it's like Iv never done one.... How long did it take you to get your backflip down??

  • i can probaly do that ON A TRAMPOLINE HAAA!

  • @TAYLORGANGHTOWN I probably can't even do that :P

  • how do you know for sure which way you should spin?? i mean i know i would prefer to spin to the left but is there some kind of quick test to tell ?? (:

  • @K3NDRAA1 Do you have a trampoline? Or something soft to land on? Jump up and spin (do a 360) and which ever way you spin naturally that comes to you, you should pull your full that way.

  • @K3NDRAA1 Whatever foot you put in front of you for a round off that's which way you want to twist.

  • @EvoFritts thanks, that makes sense ;)

  • stay positive?

  • much respect out of all the tutorials yours is the best im a aspiring traceur and first time i ever tried i landed a front tuck flat still havent perfected em but their so close (ive landed some perfect ones just not continous perfect ones). this gonna be after i learn backflips for sure haha ty for your tutorials

  • I think elitist gymnasts are adorable. No need to feel threatened. Spring floors and mats are too soft for me.

  • is it right that I go to arabian flip and then instead of tucking I make a front 180 ?

  • This guy has awesome hair... O_o

  • Really articulate, great job.

  • DO A BARREL ROLL!!!!!

  • @9Arc He did a tutorial on it!!!

  • This has helped me soo much.. Nice vid man

  • You can wake up in the morning and just bust it, or you can go in the gym and finish stretching then just bust it. Sounds legit.

  • Nice vid man

  • you helped me so damn much thanks!!! finally landing fulls on my feet instead of my face >_<

    STAY POSITIVE ;D

  • thanks guy! you are amazing!

  • i did this with my friends won 150 $ and kissed a girl

  • Comment removed

  • here is how i landed this. get on a trampoline, do a backflip. you should land facing lets say north. then do a backflip again, but just spin a ittle bit till you land facing west. then keep doing this spining just a little bit more each time untill you have done a backflip 180. then keep repeating the same process. make sure you keep your body flat like a board. dont tuck. keep legs together. keep your arms in an crossed. i put out a bunch of pillows and blankets in apile around the spot i land

  • Epic1 i doing my full but when i land it my hand keeps touching the floor ..is it go as well when u tip toe ?

  • @epic what if u go on your tip toes any tips on that ..cause i been doing it on my flat foot and am landing it but my hands keep touching the floor

  • Dude, i had backflip 360s this morning just in my garden. I did about 10, but after i slipped and landed on my neck. I took about a 20minute break and then when I was about to try again I got scared and now I can't do them. Any tip on how to get it?

  • i cant twist at all i dont know how to twist

  • @10ace7 get on a trampoline. jump strait up and just do simple 180s. then move up to 360. just practice this a whole lot. then you want to try and jump back and do a horizontal 360 and land on your back. keep your arms crossed and legs strait. then after you can do a good spin and land strait and balanced just follow the steps in my last post.

  • Hey uh, how should i decide which side I'd be better off spinning to?

  • @xXHellzRejectXx

    Which foot do you kick a ball with? I kick them with my right, and I twist over my left shoulder, e.g. using my right foot to kick and twist with.

  • @LeNickoHz I'll give that a shot next time I go to a gym, thanks for a fast response. Lol. I was hoping someone would say somthing

  • i almost snapped my neck on a bed

  • thumbs up for the ponytail:)

  • is there an easyer way 2 learn that witout a trampoline

  • well i broke my neck

  • @platypusman8888 no way

  • good job bro, great tutorial, btw yours isnt that far from a gymnast full, you're a great teacher, keep it up.

  • why is there a random dog

  • ur fulls are amazing and HIGH!!! omgee

  • Ur sweaty

  • THANKS BRO! DID IT FIRST TRY!

  • @AEDVid Lies that shit aint easy

  • @keithtuber HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH!

  • Why the hell does everyone do their 360 backflips twisting left. Am I the only person who twists right? Am I a retarded flipper?

  • @OldmanChester hehe..don't worry. I twist to my right as well. I couldnt really get it on the left so the right works for me. And no... you're not a retarded flipper. ^_^

  • hi... um.. when i land i land on my hand and feet as if im doin a crab... if i have to i can upload a video to show u but do u kno wat is possibly wrong?

  • hey i have a question... when i land i land on my hands and feet as if im doing a crab... wat am i doing wrong?

  • What do u do if r fat haha

  • @xxxkeyj Fat people can trick too :)

  • @leightonio123 This is a tutorial, so you're on the wrong video :)

  • Epic can you please help me, im trying this and it felt like i did it right, then i recorded myself doing it just to make sure, but it ends up im not backfliping im just spinning horizontally. i do all the motions you do and ive even tried to wait to spin when i was veritcal, but i can never finish the backflip

  • Wait does it matter what hand u write with? Like, twist left if ur left handed,twist right if ur right handed?

  • @Taycanrockit Whatever feels comfortable. More often than not you will find it easier to twist opposite of the hand your write with.

  • I spin the other way...

  • Thanks to you i got my standing full! I might post up the video of it so u can criticize it.

  • Do a tutorial on how to 360 front flip

  • nice! will doing them off an object be easyer?

  • No lie the spin practicing helps I saw a dramatic change in my spin and now I can do the full no problem.

  • EPIC DOG STEALING CAMERA!

  • is it all the same on a trampoline? please reply

  • i can do a backflip 180 with ease on a trampoline, but 360 is like impossible.. help?

  • @Tinsletooth thanks but I have way to much power and added height to start on a trampoline, my trainners and coaches just stick me on a rod floor and be prepared to catch me if I fall. I wish I could be spotted in my tummbling or in anything but my coaches literally can't reach me lol.So I'll take advise from anyone. But anyway I have it, and a standle double, araibian, double ariabian, etc =D

  • @CenterforEFT I did! I hve my standing full to now, it's still a little tricky to land because I get way to much height that I'll still over-turn or rotate and land on my bum lol =D

  • like i have my layout, and tuck and its like steady or whatever. but i jsut dont get what im suppost to do with my arms when i go up!!!!!!!

  • whats is the song at the beginning name ??

  • if u were to spot someone on a back full how would u do that?

  • Comment removed

  • Not everybody can get up as high as you so these can't really benefit every one. I can do my full but it's low and I land it about 15%of the time

  • good video,it helped alot thanks

  • im the only one in my school that can do a standing backflip i think lol...

  • hey epic, thanks a lot for putting your tutorials up!! ive learned a backflip within 15 minutes yesterday and today ive been working on my arabian doing them into my pool and i finally got the rotation and the front tuck style landing. but these damn fulls are crazy hard for me...ive watched ur tutorial multiple times but still cant get the 360 rotation. any other advice other than whats in your vid????

  • Hi! I am from Brasil! Play capoeira! You are amazing ! How can I lose a fear to do this?

    My problem is the fear!

    See you!

  • @regislindo Can you backflip? If not, then have some spotters help you until you are comfortable on your own, but make sure they no how to spot, so they don't get you injured. If you are scared of throwing the 360 into it, start small with a 180. Also try it on a trampoline or at a gym with softer landings.

  • @regislindo i found a good way to get rid off the fear. U need to get rly angry like a savage and just "YAAAAAAAAAAARGH MOTHERFUCKERS BACKFLIP" and then u just do it. :D

  • what are the chances of falling and injuring yourself if you have a solid standing tuck and you have been spotted on fulls before and your just ready to try by yourself????

  • Everyone LISTEN TO THIS DUDE! I WENT OUT AND TRIED THESE TECHNIQUES AND IT WORKED!!! I DIDNT DO A FULL I DID A HALF. AND A STANDING HALF. THIS IS NOT A JOKE.

  • hay

  • ok im doing it in my next video

  • I can do them off things, but when I go to do it on flat I get scared and end up not seeing a thing, and then I land on my knees, any suggestions to that!?

  • im trying this tomorrow wish me luck(:

  • argh, why the fuck i got fat :(

  • i love u soo much, finally someone who actually helped me :D like and subscribedd

  • i can land a round off into a 360 back, but i cant land a standing 360 backflip, any tips?

  • i hope ill be as good as you one day

  • thank your epic cause of you i can do it thanks

  • O_o oh man, its great video. i'll try with your Tutorial =D

  • wat kind of excersie do u need to do in order to do backflip

  • You give such great tutorials. This is fantastic.

    

  • r u sikh????

    

  • I like your intro song Kyle!

  • Dang, you think your full is high enough?!

    they're amazingg!! :) im working on my RO hand full right noww... and i need advice.

  • 16 broke his neck

  • I can get the 180 backflip super easily but no matter what I do I cant get the 360 fast enough to do it. Any ideas?

  • Quick question: What's the name of the intro song?

  • Okay so I can do it on tumble trak at my gym, btw I'm a power tumbler and so I get major height in any tumbling or jump I do, but my problem is that once I complete the full my feet miss the mat. It's kind of like I'm over-rotating in the landing. Any advice????

  • @shanshanrere slow ur damn flip down.. ahhaha you gotta learn to control your movements.

  • @Epic1 Lmao omg every coach I've ever had in my life has told me that exact samething!!!! And evreytime I slow down my motions I can't land anything cause it's kind of like tumbling in slow motion lol!!! And I just learned to control some of my power yesterday without running... I need to learn fast or I'm going to kill my coaches from tumbling =D

  • @shanshanrere you must find balance. =D

  • @Epic1 I found balance on balance beam with those 3 expensive years of competive gymnastics lol!!! Hhaha my new trick that I just thought of is to spot something in front of me and spot it when it's time for me to land, or to simply look at my feet. Do you think that will work????? =D

  • @shanshanrere one way to find out!! =D

  • @shanshanrere make your head sit in one position dont look anywhere just straight or to your rotation. everytime your head starts moving your body follows it remedied my problem.

  • @shanshanrere There's a good chance that you're piking down as you come down, try to keep yourself tighter

  • @shanshanrere Why are you asking for Epic1's advise on tumbling? He doesn't tumble, he tricks. They are completely different. Tumbling requires a lay out, with both arms in the air and then dropping 1 arm to the side to get your spin. Anyways my advise to you is learn to gauge your layouts and fulls on a trampoline first, learn how to spin how fast you want. Also try not running as fast, stick it on that speed then increase the speed stick it on that speed ect.

  • @shanshanrere lol standing double it then

    

  • restriction to 13 years kids? XD

  • I can only do a 180 backflip, Any tips on the further 180 spin ? Thanks

  • how can i know at what side i do flip? 

  • hey epic i jus tried a standing full for the very first time today..my rotation started ok but then i jus stopped in the middle of it and i landed on my shoulder..my height felt good..i recorded it nd the height didnt look to bad but i jus landed all wrong cud u give me some advice? thnx epic plz reply! xD

  • Does it have to be a layout backflip? because im naturally used to backtucks. i want to also get used to layouts.

  • respect!!

  • Look at this dog.. This dog want to be doing standing full as well. Anyway, good job. Good advice. :)

  • Ninja

  • i train off and on and right now when i do a backflip (and always since i started) i blackout and i never tuck. i whip my backflips. i can do them off my car and other platforms, but hit my toes then land on my knees when i do them off the ground. i tried a full twist off a platform before and almost made it. but i cant do a half and always go for a full. i am confused on these subjects. any tips you can help me with?

  • hey,

    i cant seem to be able to get the 360 twist even on a trampoline i try all the time but it only turns out to be a 180.

    any tips?

  • dear epic,

    i wana know, doesnt it feel like youre going sideways instead of backwards? i dont get it...

  • I dont see how this way and the gymnastics way are any different. Im a gymnast and i do it this way. Then again i did kinda teach myself to do a standing full.

  • 3rd post! The thing with standing fulls is you must put all your energy into the backflip (on hard floor) or you wont make it and very little energy into the full! Flipping is more important than spinning and your spin should happen very naturally with little effort. For the full all you have to do is drop your arms and rotate your head to one side and that should be enough to spin you. last little tip your set should look like this / which will happen if your arms hit the end of rotn ovr head

  • 2/2 Now for your standing fulls. first off you need to be able to spin and flip at the same time a drill to help with this is to do a back flip to belly and when youre belly is on the way to the ground you spin half way and land on your back then all the way, obviously you do this on a trampoline or mat. When you get that down you put the back flip and full together. The most important part to get the standing full is to really crunch your knees up twrds your body. Will continue on a 3rd post.

  • 1/2 I have my standing fulls down and a few tips to learn is to first improve you back tuck a proper back tuck should look like a back roll in the air, pulling and rotating hips,knees and feet over your head and leading with your feet. For the set you need to sit with your chest Knees and toes inline and hands down and all the way back then as you jump let your arms go as far back in the upward overhead position while shrugging youre shoulders.

  • so. does YOUR body naturaly bring your knees into your chest, but not into a full tuck like if you were doing just a standing backflip? or should I focus on bringing them in a little so im not just doing a lay out thus risking an injury?

  • Can you make a Front full one?

  • same as jadenxy its strange
