exactly im just going to commit and try as hard as i can like %100 im just scared if i stall upside down and fall on my head

 

[Chris Vincent]

My first time doing a back flip was within my first months of riding, and I could barely double whip flyout. As long as you get speed and fully commit, you will be fine.

If I wasn't in a foam pit the first time I flipped, I would've had a broken neck. I don't know if "just go for it" is the best advice, honestly. DMazz also got a broken collarbone when he first tried a flip. It' pretty scary to be honest. However, if you can backflip on a trampoline, that's basically the same feeling. If you can do them on a trampoline, you'll probably be fine.

What ever you do don't pussy out mid flip or you'll probably fall and hurt your self. A lot.
Learn them on something else first. Feet, trampoline, off a bench even before you try them on a scooter.

 

[Sockz]

alright trying these at claremont tommorow so wish me luck also wheres the best spot there to first throw them

 

[Dom Marconi]

Down a stairset is usually best to first try them.

 

[Daeshon Croom]

rob should do a flip tutorial

 

[Victor C.]

Do them in foam. I can't backflip to wood (I can frontflip), but foam really gives you the feel for it. Right at the lip just kinda throw everything you got backwards, and if your going fast, you'll probably land feet first.

eh i refuse to learn backies but what he said ^ ive learned alot of tricks on foampits

 

[Trevor]

they are really easy but do not let go of your scooter

 

[Keenan Still]

you let go or chocke up, you die.
