hey skia540 did you use the fucking searchbar you think YOU had the first ever thread about backflips, dipshit. Anyway tuck your knees up to your chest I'd say its better to overotate a little than to underotate a little (which I did)

Come on you guys, this is what the ski gabber is for. If nothing else, it is for asking questions about tricks for guys just learning them. Damnit, this really pisses me off when someone asks a legitimate question FOR ONCE on this forum and everyone jumps on them and bitches and complains and tells them to use the search function. Come on, use your brains you guys (JD May included)

anyway, when I first learned them it really helped to have a jump with some good vert and one that you don't travel very far. Backflips are pretty easy once you get them down as the motion is very fluid and natural, so you won't need a very big jump. When you come to the lip, don't huck backwards right away, cause you might hit your head on it. Instead, kind of pop off and then roll backwards and tuck up. It will be natural to stop your rotation once you are upsidedown and panic and look around for the landing, don't do this obviously. For the first time, just lean/roll backwards and keep tucked up and keep the momentum going. You will probably crash the first time but i found after that is easy to control your speed. Practice on the tramp. Use the wieght of your boots and skis to carry the wieght around on the flip.

Exactly. Who cares if a question is repeated? When it's question about skiing on a skiing site, it seems reasonable to me.

yeah just follow back off the lip...and for sure dont close your eyes like someone said up there...thats a bad idea. Just look back and keep looking and right side up will appear again.

here's a good reson why to use the serch tool.
because its a waste of time to repeat explaining something thats already been talked about. if you are too lazy to see whats already been said then you don't care enough to deserve to get peoples inputs on it. use the fucking serch button

definetely learn in powder, me and my friend hiked up to the top right after it had dumped and we spent all doing backflips, i can do one easily enough but still need the cojones to do one off a big air jump. powder is great without it i would suck thats why i have more impressed by east coast skiers who only have ice to land in


and more, much more than this, I did it my way

jcm8 you are a dumbass for trying a backflip, you can;t even 360 yet.



Check out the trailer to Minor Threat. It features the best skiers from all over New York State (It's under the edits/shorts section or in Huckfest900's profile)

heres some advice, dont take anyones advice thats already posted in this thread. Insted Just learn how to do a 'good' backflip on a tramp. Where u pop then lift your nees into a tuck and float a backflip around. Then do the same thing on a jump, pop, lift your nees and spot the landing. DO NOT HUCK BACK! you may land but it will be the shittyest thing ever, i learn backs like that and it took me along time to do them properly, so i could throw them over big tables. But then again backs are pretty fucking gay so maybe u shouldtn even bother

just like on a trampoline, as soon as feet hit the lip, throw it, and bring feet around, it's really easy. believe it or not, i landed my first try.

ok, first of all, if it's into powder dont worry about it. Second, if you can throw it on a tramp then you got it man. Juts throw your hips out and head back and tuck up, the first time you probably wont make it 100% around but you will come pretty close. then the next time you might even over flip. Juts commit and its easy. I was surprised at how fun and not scary itwas once I got off the lip, its kindof weird, just if you are in powder, my recomendation is this, just say fuck it and huck it.

I'd reccomend taking spins and learning them very well, like 9's with grabs and switch and unnatural spins and get a very good foundation and then try flips and corks and rodeo's etc...

Just imagine your on a rollar coaster doing a loop. Your prob going the same speed on skis cause on a rollar coaster u slow down on the loops. THats exactly the feelin i got when i first did one. Throw your head back and keep going til sitting back down on that rollar coaster again. Simple as that. Have fun.

backflips are eaaaasssssssssay

---------------------------------------------------------

High North session 4

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. 'Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury or illness, or a death in your immediate family but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!' A smart-ass guy in the back of the room raised his hand and asks, 'What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?' The entire class does its Best to stifle their laughter and snickering. When silence is restored, the teacher smiles sympathetically at the student, shakes her head, and sweetly says, 'Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand.'-Kris
