Hi im 14
I just landed my first backflip yesterday. My friend took pics and i just looked at them. I landed it about 5 or six times, but im in a tight ball and my flip has no style. Wat can i do to learn to style my flips more?

Hi im 16
just do them a lot and get comfy with them and do them on bigger hits, you'll get comfortable slowing them down and styling it out
dont just do one tomorrow morning and try to grab blunt while stalling midflip, get comfortable with the flip first

Lay them out. Go on a bigger jump, and instead of throwing your arms and feet back to start it (to get the ball, I'm guessing that is what you are doing) throw your head back and have your feet follow. This lays you out. Then to finish the rotation, tuck your knees in to bring them around.

P.S. We don't care if you are 14.


We'll have you dead pretty soon.

Hi, I'm 16 years, three months, and eighteen days old, and I like to eat hotdogs by the pool.

the trick to the stylie BF is to arch your back!!! I threw my backflips all hucked out when I first learned, but once I stuck a few, I layed one or two out bu arching my back, and they're really nice looking... and easier to land!

hi i'm 16 and i landed my first backflip attempt. it was sick. just find a big enough jump with a steep lip, pop, and throw it just like you would on a trampoline. do it a couple times until you're comfortable, then start arching your back more and laying it out. just pretend you're Seth Morrison.

First thing to rember is never say your age here inless your 6 or below. Second dont do backs they where played out 3 years ago.

hi i'm 16

Hi Im 18 and I cant do a backflip :(

Let's face it, no one posts anything serious on NS, and even if I wanted to, it would be answered by some not-so-clever variation of the following:
'You're gay', 'you suck', 'I fucked your mom last night', 'Eat shit', 'fuck you', or my favourite, 'I'm a better skier than you'. Jib_This

before you do one on skis, get comfortable doin them on tramps, but also just jumping off something and doing them. when you hit the jump, pop hard and arch your back, then bring your eyes around, as long as you get your legs swinging around you it will definitely come around. once you can see the landing, tuck or slow down the flip to make the landing, if you're over rotating open your body and slow down your legs coming around
