Yeah biggest problem I have with teaching people how to do frontflips is that they don't pop. They throw their arms correctly and all but they just kind of roll off the lip. Although it is not impossible to do a fronflip if you don't pop, sometimes I forget to pop and I just end up throwing it super hard and getting it around, usually backseat, but I ride it out. When you are just learning them keep your hands up by your head and when your feet get close to the lip, Pop hard, and throw your hands down to grab your knees. This will set the rotation, you just need to commit and not open up once you get upside down.
Do you guys think that frontflips or backflips are easier on skis?
Ive heard different people say both things
try doing a superman front flip they are easier when you first start learnig them
becasue you already have half the rotation whenn you go super man then once you go super mant tuck in your knees that will brign around the rest of the flip
