hey guys, i was wondering if any of you had some information about russian front flips, i tried google but i couldn't find anything usefull, maybe it's because i'm not using the correct name for that flip...
and if you dont know what a russian front is it looks like this:

(a front tuck where you swing your arms backwards which makes the roation take place in the shoulders area)

they are easier then you think. just try one but make sure when you swing your hands back that your arms go as far back as possible right when you push off so the momentum of your arms pulls you up and around for the flip. if your still scared then try it a few times on a tramp or spring floor then try on grass

i would say your avatar looks goofy.
but the thing with russian front is that you get more height and can combo easier at least for me

Is it easier than a regular front? A matter of preference I suppose.

i find them not really easier but less tiresome then normal fronts and also more effective i could probably link an aerial after them as for the flash i'm already working on it. so anyone know another name for that move or got videos?
