Dont be a pussy on your first try and be super comfortable with the rotation on tramp and stuff before you start even thinking about it. Helped me to make a steep jump in my backyard in a foot of pow so I wouldn't hurt myself.

1)Approach Jump in a solid stance
2)Pop and throw your legs/hips over(your body should be arched, and your hands shouldn't really do anything to help you flip)
3)Make sure that your head is spotting the landing
4)If your going too slow tuck in for landing, if too fast, open up and reach
5)Land it and ride away

~find some fresh backcounrty
~build a jump that's almost a quarterpipe
~hit it and let the jump throw you straight up
~that's 25% of your flip all you need to do is lean and as hard as you can without popping
~land on face
~search forums for better answers
