r/Tricking

Yesterday was the first time I landed a backflip on the ground and I’m so happy. Ive been able to do it on a trampoline since last year.

got the surgery in early february, been training my core ever since i was cleared by the surgeon. any adjustments i should make?

trying to focus on keeping my legs straighter but btwist is genuinely one of my favorite and easiest moves i’ve learned this far, any advice is welcome!

Is it just commitment? I fell like it may be

Please I have no idea what to so next, i try and backflip and thats all my brain lets me do sadly.

It looks like he did a coindrop to iguana or smth (tbh I don’t remember if it’s called an iguana)

Me and my brother have been trying to learn how to do a front flip. I have gotten to this point so far and was wondering if anyone had any tips / drills that would help.

My main (known) issues are that I am not un-tucking and my arm aren't going high enough. I find that it happens very fast and its hard to tell where I am in the air. I don't have any room for run-up either.

Does anyone have any drills / tips to help me get used to un-tucking, along with that, are there any other form issues you can see? It does hurt my back a little when I land. Thanks in advance!

edit - video is 60fps so you should be able to slow it down a little.

Its my first time doing scoot cork and I wanna know how to make it better

I'm trying to learn how to backflip this summer to impress my friend, so I looked up a video, and I'm stuck on this bit. It's meant to be an ugly back handspring, but when the guy in the video does it, he jumps pretty high and back, and I feel like I'm not doing it right. Any tips to improve?

The timestamp on the bit im tryna replicate is 5:01

So I’ve been working on my backflip for a while now and I’m able to land on my knees which is something I’ve wanted to do for a while now. But the problem is that in order for me to land on my knees I have to throw my head backwards in order to generate enough rotation to complete the flip. I’ve tried keeping my head neutral, but I land on my back and neck every single time which is in my opinion way worse than landing on my knees. So I’m just confused?

If the only way I can actually backflip is if I throw my head backwards then how else do I generate rotation when that’s gone?

Update: Okay so I think I found the main problem with my rotation. It’s the mat. I’m using the mat to help me overcome the fear of the backflip but it’s killing the necessary height required to get me on my feet. I’ve seen a couple of people say that I need to raise my arms more and while I don’t entirely disagree, I’ve seen a lot of backflips even ones people have sent me and majority of them have their arms in the same position that I do. I don’t think it’s impossible to do it on the mat that I have but at my current level I won’t be able to get it done. The closest I’ve gotten was my toes. So instead I’m going to go to a gymnastics gym near me and see if they got better equipment that I can use.

I had been coming really close to a cork and realized I was skipping foundational steps so I went to learn the b twist before the cork, let me know how it looks this is around 30 minutes of giving it a go

I’ve been working on my b-twist and would really appreciate some feedback. I feel like something is off, but I’m not sure exactly what.

PLEASE can somebody help, literally cannot get my aerial. I've been trying for years now, taken acro classes, genuinely tried every single method, watched every single YouTube video and I STILL can't do it. I have a solid cartwheel, dive, pop and one handed. tried doing the butterfly kick method but that didn't work and I'm so close to giving up

.

any tips would be greatly appreciated
