(Tumbling) - Backflip Tips

[sibat10]

omg omf....... forget the backflip... you will hurt badly sooon....

[freerunner4460]

fail man go higher

[ATempleShot]

dont crouch before you jump u take away some of ur air, just stand straight and go straight up

[minidood610365]

a standing backflip? i cant do.. i can on a hill.. a roundoff backflip?? i can straight tumble about 5 times no handed backflips.... :) see my channel for proof

[apdcrmrn]

men You dont tuck! but can still do back flip !

[MusikRYTM3]

1. You set off too low.

3. use your arms (straight) not bend.

3. Tuck!

4. Keep in mind that backflips are explained in two easy steps. First you jump and when you're at your highest point you tuck. you kinda do both at the same time even though you dont tuck that much..

[Nectarmimz]

how do you start because i aint gonna do backflips just out of nowhere.

the first one u olmost crashed on your neck:D

but nice progress

[MarcussHP]

tuck tuck tuck!

[thughes701]

A real man would have done it off the basket ball hoop! Lol

[BBoyFox189]

i should teach you tumbling and you should teach me how to flare ;D

[Heem24100]

dude,were are you from?

[iThePaperCut]

@Heem24100 the pacific (:

[ryanwinston26]

u set too low dont bend ur chest as much

[BboyOcean0]

Its all good just tuck more and also grab legs while tucking...also when u reach the highest peak to your jump thats when u tuck...

[Nova0175]

Also, when outside is the grass the most appropriate place to learn?

[iThePaperCut]

@Nova0175

yes, don't practice on concrete.. dont hurt yourself (:

[Nova0175]

@iThePaperCut Okies. So if somehow I started being able to practice, after a while on the grass can you move it upto to the concrete? :)

[Nova0175]

@iThePaperCut Btw 2:05 and 2:55 were perfect landings. :P

[TheGamerJakas]

@Nova0175 I'd say train on the beach sand, from a 0.50m height

[Nova0175]

When I used to do acrobatics I learnt how to do backward walkovers but I don't know if and how I'd be able to throw myself back like that. I've always wanted to learn to do tumbling since I got into loving to watch it.

[depresso01]

great! i try....

[pinoycypher]

farr bro dats dope

[clauteroo]

damn its kinda hard

[xarianaxlynnx]

That was really good..it's easier if you jump straight up and when you feel like your as high as you can get force your knees to your chest and keep your head in , and then when you land pick a focal point to look at in front of you so you keep your chest up :) i don't know if you already knew that but those were the things that I noticed the most when you messed up .

[tenphan0n0]

I just learned how to do one from some trickers and the guy kept telling me not to bend my knees so much and to use my toes more. he said trickers have trouble connecting flips when they bend their because they just get stuck and lose momentum/power. hard to explain but definitely made it easier.

[cutiex00x]

if you know how to back handspring then it will be easy for u to learn

[1990deinonychus]

straight your arms jump up vertical as much as possible..straight your arms like the legs in your flare...vertical jump and your knees do the flip than!!good job!!

[MrNother23]

eventhough you still had to learn, being asian helped.

[naqibbaboon]

did you use a spotter??? first heeeh i know you did

[vmjful]

dood how the hell do u have the balls 2 do that omg dood 

[phantomhockeyzero]

[cheerluva24]

[slytherinrebel]

You got tank arms man! :D

[iThePaperCut]

@slytherinrebel i got a tank top, but not TANK ARMS! hahah

[vmjful]

@iThePaperCut lol lmao tank top funny

[naqibbaboon]

@slytherinrebel this guy is amazing hes got japaaneese blood thats why he can do it

[PreshPromAsia]

8 months and i still dont have backflip on floor

[naqibbaboon]

@PreshPromAsia try a handspring first like he did

[supersonicsjj]

just tuck more and u can do it easily

[jabenjamingetm]

if u go up instead of just whipping back u will get alot more height and u will be able to do the move easier :D its good that u learned it in 1 day though it took me aggggggggeeeeeeesssss

[arniel7]

[iThePaperCut]
