wrong type of jump to learn a backflip on man.. my buddy made me the perfect jump to learn how to backflip on and it was realy easy.. i overrotaded my first time and ended up landing it my 3rd time. a good backflip jumps makes the backflip alot my effortless and should start the backflip rotation for you. Also its alot easier if you have already learned it on a trampoline.

the best way to learn a new trick is to stop being a pussy and do it! that's how I learnt to flip.

@Denny2669 It's Know. k. n. o. w. Anywho backflips are easier on a trampoline, on the ground, on a snowboard, wakeboard, whatever. You can spot your landing easier and the rotation is more natural. Most people think it's harder but that's just fear. The first half of the rotation is blind so that freaks people out.

Dude all of us real people out here in youtube land admire your courage and the video was hilarious. The problem was all in your head. Just have to trust in yourself next time and commit to the rotation. It's scary but you can do this.

@Denny2669 Front flip isn't as scary in real life but a backflip takes less effort. I don't think i'd have the guts to try a back on a board but I'd consider doing a front flip
