you would need a bigger jump to "huck" it less, but for the size of the jump it looked pretty good

back flips arnt something you need to huck unless your going off a 4 foot jump. you just need to look back i guess

like with any trick, the more you do it the more comfortable you will be and the more comfortable you are the steezier you are so dont worry about it and keep practicing k?

first time i tried one i came around and didnt know what direction i was traveling in. theyre kinda disorienting at first, but all you really need to do is a front flip, but backwards...its as easy as that!

just make sure that when you set it, youre looking directly uphill, and you dont spin too early, or it could be curtains for ya.

i just did my first few the other day. they are the blindest trick i have ever done. so make sure you are really comfortable wiht fronts, so you know where you are because you will not see your landing really at all. i did mine off a really lippy but small jump. just be prepared to land, because my second try i landed, and i was so confused i ended up eating shit. becaue when you are inverted, you will see the horizion, when you are 3/4 of the way around, you will see the sky... and when you bring it around at most you will see the jump. you never see the landing and they are very weird feeling. good luck!
