  • What you need to do is jump higher. It looked like you jumped back instead of up. I also saw a bail out or panic just keep the tuck and you'll land it.

  • @TheSunIsBurningMe 1.you are right that i need to jumo higher

    2.what do you mean i jumped back ? i didn't, i mean i "landed" in the same spot as i jumped

    3.bail out ? i pretty much holded tuck intill i hitted the floor with my head

see all

  • I'm impressed by this first attempt, ballsy as hell to hold your tuck that long, well done. I'm still learning but it looks like you just need more power in your jump and in your arm swing. You'll get it for sure, hardest part is behind you now

  • Thats an awesome effort for a first time!

  • This is a bit late but it looks like you jumped off YOUR right leg instead of both your legs. It probably decreased the speed of your tuck.

  • Throw your hands up and stay focused on whatever is in front of you, man. I know it sounds weird, but the higher you get your hands (which should be quite a bit higher) the easier you'll land. Check out Andrea Catozzi's backflip tutorial if you haven't already.

  • Have you learned how to perform the movement on the trampoline or off of something that builds conference a whole lot faster and easier.

  • jump more up instead of back and tuck tight as you can and quick :)

  • It was i great first attempt bro and i am happy for you ~!

  • 1.You jumped tottally up but you didn't expended your body enought...

    2.And it is not only about tucking. it's about tucking high and rotating..

    3.Your confidence sucks and the proof is that your channel name is MrBackflipFail and because you do it inside your home

    4. Do it outside using your mattress

    5.Keep training
