all those were found in the first 3 pages of the results of the search: how to backflip, which just turns into backflip because this forum is weird. i honestly think there is more threads on backflips than tailwhips.

yeah dude, they are seriously easy, nearly easier than 360's(not flat though) and just take a bit more concentration, you just gotta commit, you'll find your main problem will be over rotating. lol

what are the chances of under-rotating a backflip?
???

idk. but for flips they are easy just make sure you dont just straighten your legs to flip. jump off the lip and lean back and bend your knees and commit to it and you should be fine. just dear god go higher or your gonna end up like me and taylor (head hitting coping, really no fun waking up in the hospital)

matress time!!!

seriously backflips are sooooo easy.... all you do is kick foward and attempt to tuck your head into your ass, simple. the chances of underrotating are so little. i always overrotate coz i spin to early and really huck way to hard, find the perfacet balance and you will be rollin like radtke in no time
