who here thinks that i should just go all the way and sticka backflip, i have tried it 2ce, got all the way around and bailed, i can do backflips on gras and land them, but i just don't got the guts to do it in the air, if i do i'll be sure to get a pic of me doin it cuz i know some of you people get a little upset if i can't back it up, but i WILL!!

That'd be awesome...no tips from me...but that'd definently be sweet. You should tape your attempts, and show us all.

Try doing it on a trampoline. Thats good help and it helps you get the in air feeling down. Just keep trying to spot your landing and dont twist your neck or you will get a 180 or 360 in there aswell. good luck and dont kill yourself.

What kind of backflip you'r talking about....the "roll" backflip or the normal backflip. Cuz the roll is much easier....I actually never tryed it, but it's like doing a backflip on a trampoline....the normal backflip is way harder cuz you have to put all your weight on your back foot and pull real hard, and hope you land it right......the only advice I can give you is that be confident before doing it, or else you'll get hurt.

i can do them every single time on the trampoline without bouncing, just backflipping, i have tried 2ce, but i think snowboard season is over now :( here <<#$%>> anyhow, i got all summer to get the motion down on the grass and trampoline, arrg i hate summer for snowboarding, but its great for skating, oh well, why can't i just have a massive indoor skatepark and a mountain, it be so much easier, or just a big run with a massive jump, lol, and i mean like a back flip 180, you turn about 90 degrees, throw the backflip and turn the other 90 degrees out of it, it looks nice, I got no Camera and my friends dad would NEVER let him go to the mountain with his arrg, im thinking of buying a cheap disposable camera for a day and just get my friend mto take pics of me doing stuff, i mean its really the best i can do about it, cuz im not going bring an expensive Camera up there and check it into a locker or anything, or carry it, that way i can check it and board once its full and i can scan my photos after

This is three years old? Oh well it's interesting. I can land a front flip on grass and concrete. I want to learn back flips but I'm way to scared to try 'em...I'm going to try to use a diving board to teach me because the trampoline just isn't helping me enough. I really should just try to do a front flip on my board, no ramp or anything just like jumping when you're on your board but doing a front flip. I haven't tried it yet, cause I know it will just slip out from under me until I've tried it a few times.

Heres a suggestion build your jump huge.Like maybe try getting one of those X Factor kicker ramps and burry it in the snow then make sure that its a big hill that your going down mso you can go faster.Try that

Hey man, the best way to pull a backflip is completly forget about how to do them on a trampoline or on ground those ways will just F*** u up. I was scared shitless the first try but i got it the second, but whatever you do don't try one like you do on a trampoline (you will die). just go into a tail press at to coping and lean back hard. really hard and you'll get it :-3:
