So I think it's time that I try a flat 3 I can backflip comfortably on snow and can flat 3 more comfortably than every other flip I can do on the tramp mainly because it's so easy to spot the landing and I think it's time that I give it a shot I've never done it on skis into an airbag or anything I could later on this season but that is to long of a wait, I need to do it now. Any tips?

try doing a backflip with the flatspin in mind, but pull it a little to the side like a flatspin. japan or safety helps a lot. make sure te jump is perfect, and you have a clear, open landing with a nice place to run off. most of all commit and dont be a little bitch.

really shouldn't be too hard if you're comfortable doing backflips. Find a good jump, start with doing a backflip and then just hit it several more times a little more off axis each time so you learn how to set the rotation right.

You can expect to land it first try.

same as tramp, if not easier. If you can do it on tramp and backflip fine, then you will probably land it first try

if you have backflips on snow and flatspins on tramp you will get it first or second try as long as you pop and don't throw it too fast
