hey dudes
just been on a 2 day camp with Josh Loubec it was so fun
and he taught us how to do back flips.we built the jump on a windlip
with a last second kick on it that put ya into the back flip real good.
What sort of jump would ya make for a first attempt at a front flip?

i did my first non-tramp frontflip on a small table at snow summit called x-wing, it's like a 12 ft table that doesn't have a high kick to it, it just kind of throws you outward, fronts are easy but you have to be careful with the landing, don't over-rotate cause the landing sucks when you do.
