you are psyching yourself out. It's all mental. I get the impression that you are telling yourself you can't do it.

A mental block, if you will.
You just got to commit.
Throw your head back and push your pelvis forward.

There's no easy way to explain it. You just gotta push yourself.

It's a matter of commitment,
Whether you are on skis or not.
If you can not commit on the trampolean, please don't try it on snow.

It is an easy trick on snow, but if you do not commit you can get hurt.

That shit happened to me a while ago too. I had been doing mistys, d-spins and shit like that for over a year, then I went down hard a coupple of times and it took like half a year before I did it again

Haha, I tried to do one off my tramp yesterday, and instead of bouncing off the mat to do it, I landed on the springs. I got like no bounce and slammed my knee on the bar.

don't think of jumping way backwards. think of jumping straight up, throwing your head back and swinging your legs around it

havent thrown one since last year when i launched all the way across the tramp into the springs, and the springs pinched and caught my legs as i feel, hookin me up with some nice cuts and bruises.
im jus to scared to do em cuz i never launch up anymore, i huck my self back wards and fly off the tramp.

two years ago i banged my head on a small diving board at a hotel up north. ever since then ive been afraid to do them off diving boards. two weeks ago i went up north and stayed at the same hotel. after some mistys, frontflips, and lincolns off the board, i tried a backflip, and it was easy. you just have to let your testicles expand a bit.

who cares if you get paralayzed. then youll get to spend the rest of your life in a wheel chair while some sassy bitch sucks your lifeless dick.

start out with a spotter and have them flip you around and you eventually get used to it
trust me, the '' things aren't actually there)
