The Video is more than 4 minutes but I started my first backflip at around 0:12 seconds and did my 40th at about 3:46. I wasn't that tired yet so I finished it off with a corkscrew =)

This was just for fun, I posted this on my facebook status:
"Training Self-Challenge: I will do a BACKFLIP tomorrow (March 1st) for every "Like" this status gets from now until midnight. A video will be posted to prove it!" it got 40 likes, hence this video =)

  • Not a corkscrew, a gainer full. Awesome tho :)

  • @Thebackyardninja94 Thanks bro! Actually that IS a corkscrew (cheat gainer with 360 twist) - Gainerfull is a 360 backflip while moving forwards AND it is done straight not in an axis like a corkscrew. At this time I can only do standing 360 backflips - I'm still working on pulling off gainerfulls =) Hope that helps!

  • @flyfree2J My bad bro, your right. I finally got my standing full but I land pretty low. btw I wish I could do a cork, those are pretty sick

  • @Thebackyardninja94 Nice! Corks will actually be easier to perform than standing fulls once you get it - based on my experience. I say that because doing corks you flip over your shoulder rather than over your head. Corks also have more momentum from the Jstep and from the kick. Whereas standing fulls its all torque from the upper body . Anyway, my suggestion is keep doing cheat gainers/moonkicks so you get use to that axis. familiarise that motion then add the twist. Cheers! Train hard!

  • i just tried this and got almost exactly the same as you i finished1 second later then you but i thought of somthing fun lol, ill give you a competition if you like to push us both wurther and possibly one of us will set a world record, i will post a video on my channel soon and try to get 50 and i will wait for your response, hope to hear from u

  • If I can do a standing backflip and land with only a little bend in my knees and I can do a side flip (not an ariel) do you think I could try a Kick the moon or cheat gainer? How much harder are they then a plain backflip?

    And I am sitting and waiting for your cork right now :)

  • @Thebackyardninja94 Ryan Doyle, Damian Walters, Chase Armitage, ande the whole 3run team all call a "gainer full" a corkscrew. he did not even move forward in the move so how could it be a gainer in the first place.

  • and that is how you drill a move :) i wanna try this lol
