  • Do you have tips to overcome fear?

  • @TBK1979 Yep, start out just jumping straight up and landing flat on your back (on a mattress). Also, try just doing backward rolls. Start in a crouched position, rock forwards, then push backwards and roll over backwards. Then try jumping straight up and rolling over backwards to one shoulder (on a mattress). Trust me, when you continue the momentum, you learn that if you keep on with the rotation, there is nothing to worry about.

  • Legs weren't too bad, but it's a hell of an ab workout! It may not look like it but I was trying hard to tuck, its not that easy especially if you have large legs...

  • whats u'r height I mean I'm like 231 pound and 6"2 almost but i can't do a standing backflip ,, am I to have for backflip

  • @SYAMAND619

    I'm about 6" I think, you're not too heavy for a back flip and I wouldn't believe that you're height would be a problem. Just keep at it, I found it very useful to video myself as I could see what I was actually doing and compare it to proper technique.

  • @iceora can you help me with my backflip?

  • @iceora can you just look on my channel than, please? i really could use some help from someone who can actually do it

  • awesome man, i screwed up my back doing too many aswell, do you still do backflips? and how long did your back hurt after lol

  • Nice one mate ;)

  • dude, well done

  • This is really cool and inspirational, how did you overcome the fear of doing a backflip? I don't know if I could even attempt it.

  • in your first attempt clips all you needed to do was tuck tight and you would have stomped them
