i am really intrested in learnign to do a back flip with skis but was wondering if i could get a few tips and if i would have to be able to do a backflip just off a random jib area on foot .. i can do a double backflip on a trampoline so if you have any advice i'd be thankful

find a good sized jump with a steepish takeoff and just lean the fuck back.

i also just recently learned backflips, and at first i would throw my entire body way too har, wich is totally unnecessary unless your trying it off of a lift tower mound or something. if you can find a steep jump with a small gap, just lean back, look back, arch your back, and you will see the landing before you can even think. very easy, but scary to learn trick. fun times! good luck

ya make sure u dont look at your knees, keep spotting for your landing, if you look up, you kill your rotation and yourself

Super uner rotated or didn't roatate at all? That is like 1/4 of the rotation that you need. Pow wouldn't help get your backflip on that...
