I have been wanting to learn frontflips for some time now. I can do them off skis on about a 2 foot ledge and I'm ready to take it to the snow! So I built the backyard jump and a big pow pile. Now what? I have found no good frontflip tricktips out there. Any tips help!

When I do mine I just up and out almost like a superman front but bring your knees in and tuck the front. So in short you really have to pop then flip especially with a front flip. Idk if that made sense at all

Do you have access to a SkyZone type place (just a shit ton of tramps) to practice?

just don't throw too early, that's the easiest mistake to make when you take it to snow. Also remember your pushing your head/shoulders down to your knees and chasing them round. Throw with your hands, keep your hands by your feet and you'll be fine.

Don't throw down... not how you want to do it. PUNCH your two fists straight out infront (maybe slightly lower?) and tuck after. Works much better and looks so much c00ler

Don't suck your own dick. Grab just below your knees. Commit.
