To do a backflip, you need to talk to the backflip fairy. To do this, you need to say 'Hurkle durkle' while riding the lift before you do the backflip. She will come and talk to you. If she thinks you are worthy, she will spray pixie dust on you that enables you to do this trick. If you don't talk to the backflip fairy, you can't land a backflip. It's that simple. Many injuries are caused by not talking to her before attempting this trick.


Girls don't like sensitive guys. Since I don't treat women like objects, I have to treat objects like women.

Visualize yourself doing it. During the inrun, keep your arms/hands at your side. When you get to the lip, throw your arms infront of you and over your head. Immediately begin to look up/back to spot your landing. (Spotting your landing is very important.) The minute you spot it, you should be golden. keep looking at your landing till your feet have come all the way around, and then stick it.

A couple of other things.....

1. Don't attempt this without a helmet. (I shouldn't have to even mention that.)

2. Know you're going to land it before you do it.

3. It helps to be able to do a backflip on the ground from just a standing position. (no tramp, no pool)

4. Make sure someone is with you incase you don't make it around all the way and hurt yourself.

I landed it the first time I tried it. The whole chairlift ride up before I did it, I was going over it in my head. As long as you can see yourself doing it, you should be fine.

Good Luck dude! Don't kill yourself.

heres the deal man, backflips are by far the easiest trick in the book, its all in yer head. You just need a jump with a pretty good huck, i would suggest if possible, building your own bc kicker so you can make the huck yourself, hit the jump first a couple times, just straight airing or whatever, then go for the back flip, at the top of the run way your going to be shitting yourself- but once u tell yourself your gunna do it, and start heading down the run way all the fear will go away, and just concentrate on what your going to do, once u get to the jump youll sort of feel the top of the lip, and youll know where it is from hitting it earlier, now just lean back and huck hard, and just stay commited. the hardest things are gettin the nuts to leave the top of the run way and staying committed but if you can do that youll get it, now you most likely wont land your first one, but once thats out of the way, you can start getting closer to landing it, and throwin in some style and what not. good luck man

You have to commit. And that means more than just looking back with your head.

Speaking of which, it's pretty damn funny to watch somebody hit a water ramp without initiating the flip (that means using your hips), and then seeing them plummet straight into the water head first.

Haha , Hurkle Durkle, thats a funny word.
Land Shark EEEEE EEEEE EEEE
