[Dyl-sedai]

ive noticed that with my backflips i spin quite slow, so was wondering wat exercises (if any) there are to increase the speed of my tuck and flip!

or is just going to be a case of practice practice practice?

Practice makes perfect.

I think it comes down to technique, although training your lets with squats will increase power which in turn will increase power in your flips

[Dyl-sedai]

aye i thought as much! just thought that mayhaps there were a miracle potion that increased my speed by + 20 permanently! ah well, back to landing on me knees a shit load i spose!

I just try and bring my knees up fast and hard, that seems to kick my rotation speed up a bit.

Condition your abs, sure thing to improve rotation speed on your backflips.

Yes, need stronger abs and lats

ive got quite good abs, tho my lats are practically not there!
