[Foster]

Just practice. And once you have it in the foam pit take it to wood emediatly and commit. Their realz EZ

[Brandon T]

i tried a backflip up a quarter, i got 3/4 of the way, but i only went up half of the quarter

throw your head back and keep it back. bring the bars in your knees and tuck and stay tucked.

Get in a ball, do not pencil.

 

[Nick Griffin <3]

pencil.

 

[matr!]

Just commit. It's your subconsciousness stopping you from rotating, tell the sensible side of your brain to go fuck itself and just go for it.

 

[Victor C.]

pencil.

I actually laughed at that haha

You HAVE TO spot your landing when your upside down or else youll probably over rotate

 

[Tom Cirbee]

Wheelie off of the top of the quarter. That is what throws you into the rotation.

My head is very close to the coping when i flip, and also when i land, im very close to the coping. f i go into a ball, i always over rotate....

 

[Oliver Laver]

any help??

 

[Tom Cirbee]

Go faster. That way your head won't get too close to the coping.

Backflips are so hard tryd em at Woodward and i get upside down and cant get any farther

Backflips are honestly the easiest hard trick you will ever learn. I learned how to backflip on my feet before I attempted on eon a scooter. My suggestion would be to learn a backflip on a trampoline first just on your feet, no scooter. Then take it to a foam pit if you have access to one. Honestly just huck it the more you think about it the worse it's gonna be. I personally learn backflips without tucking into a ball. Also if you have a quarter pipe with no coping that is ideal as it was much easier for me to learn on. Good Luck!

i never tried one to foam or ressi. my first backflip was to straight up wood, no matress.
they take balls and commitment. if you commit with
full efort you will deffinatley get the rotation.
