Yeah... the backflip...

[Carl!]

Yes, I know it was only a little while ago since I wanted to do a B-Twist, but now I have the urge to do a backflip :shocked:
Edit: Changed the video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbILdJ1AmsI Yeah... obviously I didn't do to well with the stalling, not looking back, and tucking part... but I did do a backflip :3 Any ideas on how I could work on it? and if I jump right up and tuck, will that create enough force to allow me to flip? or do I also lean back partially (dial up sucks for searching for multiple videos to learn from, so yeah ._.) o_o?

[Surge!]

Look forward, jump up (not back), tuck and spin.

swing your arms...HARD and up, then grab the hell outta your knees, and land. I dunno about everybody else, but the arms were the biggest factor. Tucking is easy....just getting that height. Swinging the arms, grab that damn imaginary bar that's 8 ft high, and tuck. Good job btw. Your backflip is gonna be massive with good form =)

jesus christ LEARN how to edit and film vids.

[Blabla]

that backflip is better than a normal one O_O

[Carl!]

What the, I never said I knew how to film or edit videos well, nor did I even say I could
I just felt like doing that while making it shorter because it looked like I was about to land on my head, unlike others who have that really cool tucking thing and look as if they are just floating with awesomeness.

I said, you should learn to edit, not that you said that you know how to edit.
Its edited horribly and to be honest its really hard to watch it..
Would be much better if you knew how to edit well, and maybe even put it in slow motion to see your probem even better. :good:
no offense

cheers


edit: I just have a bad fucking day :agony:

[JimmY41]

jump up bring knees to your arms instead of bringing your arms to your knees

[Carl!]

Will that also give the momentum to flip? or do I lean back at the same time?

I didn't think it was that bad.

[Carl!]
