how do you grow the balls to try a flip?
without doing it into a foam pit first or spoters

I can't flip on ramps only into pits but try doing it on a tramp maybe, i don't have the balls at all to go on a ramp yet.

you need to know how to backflip on things like trampolines and stuff first so you know what its like being upside down and you're comfortable with it.

learn it on a trampoline first. I've been flipping for a while so it came easy to me. tramps/inlines/bikes etc

seriously though, learn flips onto something soft, or on a trampoline and get used to the feeling and commitment of being upside down. you need to commit with flips.

doesnt matter how steep the ramp into the pit is, as long as u can straight air off it into the pit, you'll be able to backflip off of it into the pit. its all about commitment.

When your goin off the ramp too, crouch down right befor u take off and whip ur legs out from under you but keep ur scooter with u, it'll help you stay tucked in the air and spin faster

i learned backflips in one day with a foam pit and the balls to try it on concrete...my advice is if no foampit then try mattress cause i had backflips on a trampscooter really nice and i thought i had it and then tried into foampit and failed so my advise is not to just do it to concrete unless you want to die:cool:
