my mom came in when i was watchin a backflip tutorial and shes like your crazy your going to break your neck. im like no its barley possible ive asked before. shes like YOULL SEE and walked away. wtf now im kinda hesitating to do it. is it even possible to break your neck? are your parents like this too when you started or still are? just ignore my mom and let my spotter help me? i wanna just go for it and do it but i also dont want to die lol. maybe not die i know you can all do it but you have all been doing it for YEARS. tell me about how u felt when you first started with backflips and whatever. id rather not be paralyzed or smething. were gonna be doing it on grass.

It could've been so much worse. :shocked:

-and to be on topic, I'm still waiting for a combination for a possible day to even get outside and practice (rain.. fucking rain), and a clear mind before I can even try this haha, I've really pretty much got nothing for tricks :punched: Still learning bit by bit (but at least I'm doing better than day one)

lol dude. I'll make it simple, even if you could/did freak out mid flip and drop down on your head (which is the only possible way in my opinion), with a spotter that just won't happen if he knows what he's doing. when and if you freak out his arms will be there to support you/spin you around. Just do it on plyo or something. Good luck :good:

By the way, Shen, your hair is the shit. :good:

Mums are always like that theyre stubborn as hell. Do you think she knows anything about back flips? No, she doesn't. My mum use to worry about me a lot when i started tricking but now shes started to trust my abilities. Mind you that trust might take a while to get.
But yeah, you wont freaking break your neck...tonnes of people land directly on there head and theyre fine, and you probably wont even do that.

ok i got your answer... like last year towards the start i was around 150cm and 43 kg i was tiny, 2 of my friends(my tankest ones) grab one foot of mine each and threw me into the air, i was getting like a couple metres of air. after a few goes i tried a back flip and land on the top of my head, i did not break my neck but apparently i was knocked out for a few seconds and so chances are NO you will not break your neck it has to be a combination of force and a bit of a twist to break your neck and you will either land on your back or on your stomach, they both hurt and you get a bit winded thats it, and just get your spotter to be close so if your about to land on your neck he can push you so u dont

just because theyre hard doesnt mean i will land on my head. that is so irrelevant. being hard and landing on your head.

HarleyB
Apr-26-08, 06:04 AM
yea backflips are hard until you try them and then they are easy and the chance of you breaking your neck is not that high unless you can only jump like 20cm off the ground and have terrible coordination and momentum then you might land on your head you will probably land on your stomach a few times or your knees which hurts like shit for me coz i have dodgy knees but yea you wont break your neck.!!

You will die. And your mom will let you know that for the rest of your...well...not life. but she was right.

When I told my dad I wanted to do a back flip, he said "let's go, I'll spot you", so we went outside. Long story short, I still don't have the back flip, and my dad tore his bicep on my first try.

So yes, back flipping is dangerous, but for the spotter, not you :P

The one time I did try to backflip with a spotter, he just stood there and let me do the big scary backflip on my own. I looked at him like "WTF" and he said, "Oh, you did it already?"

And that's all I have to say about that.

Apr-26-08, 09:03 AM
dude, duh back flips are "scary" when you first try them but just dont think about that, as they've all said the chances of you breakin you neck are really slim so dont even have it in your mind..if you can just rotate past your head once, even land on your knees you'll find it much less intimidating so just go for it, dont bail out and have fun :D

Do you know how a brain looks like, all twisted like spaghetti,

I suggest finding a spotter instead of taking ages deciding what to do, you might aswell you have nothing to lose.

Dude, calm down
listen to my words




YOUR NOT GONNA BREAK YOUR FUCKING NECK


And no you shouldn't just go fucking do it, wait what am i saying, yes you should, but if your planning on a spotter, please don't use your friend unless he has some experience, if your not planning on using a spotter, just go for it, seriously your not gonna stop at an 180 degree torn and fall on your head, you might fall on your knees or arms or hands etc.. you aren't gonna die ok?

no seriously. if your parents found out when you were just beginning, they would do the same thing, unless they really didnt care. maybe your parents never found out you were doing anything or you took gymnastics class, idk

Haha your parents are insane. Judging from your reactions to what they've said I assume you actually care about what they think, so meh. If you don't have the balls to go through with it, your loss. If your spotter isn't a complete moron, you'll probably end the day with a new trick in your arsenal. With no injuries! That's the catch, though. If your spotter sucks (i.e. doesn't know the technique himself, is an idiot, etc...) then things do have the potential to go very badly for you, especially if you're this nervous.

Your parents are naturally going to try dissuade you from doing ANYTHING that has even a remote chance of causing you bodily harm. With a spotter, this possibility is pretty much nullified. Until you tell them that either you've given up on your "crazy" idea or you landed the damn thing, they're going to keep harassing you. The sooner you do one or the other, the better.
