Nice. now get boostin. have ur friends dub bouce you and see how high u can go ahha. backflips are the best.
when i learned my first back flip... i was 15, in my backyard on a tramp with no padding just rusty metal and no one was home... when i look back on it, i dont think it was such a good idea.

gyms are cool n all, but really its so much better with ur friends in their backyard. its a sick sesh with ur friends, and at the gym sometimes they get angry when u flip or whatever, depends on the chillness of the staff.
im pissed my parents landscaped our backyard. and they took out the "eye sore" that i call my trampoline. now i spend my time working on the b yard not tramping, it sucks.
and safety is key, if u dont feel comfortable get a spotter or dont do it.

I was never able to do them on tramps because I wouldn't commit. Then I learned them on skis. Next time I went on a tramp, threw it perfectly first time

Nice work man keep it up. It's cool cuz once you pass that mental block of going back it becomes so easy.

Do it on skis now. Its easier than a trampoline, the only thing holding you back is fear. After you do that make out with the first attractive woman you see, if she pushes you away just say "its cool I can do a backflip". The confidence you feel after trying your first backie is irresistable to all women.

Congrats bro, I landed my first backie a month or so ago on a trampoline and it feels the best out of any trick IMO. Start going higher and laying them out and feels great to float. Its not bad when you get used to them. I wouldn't try anything flip related without a net and spring cover. Thats just asking for disaster.
