how was the approach to learning? I want to do (or at least attempt) a front/backflip as we head into the spring.

I just decided to try it, because my friends were doing them. It was weird at first but got it down pretty soon by just trying. Hardest part is doing the first one. Also I was rly confident with them on tramp that way

Any tips on how they are done? I have seen one friend learn them but they seem scary but not that hard

That’s cool. The first time I ever tried a front flip I did like literally 1/4 of a front flip and was like whelp that sucked never attempting that ever again.

I couldn’t tell ya. I can’t even front flip. I just think they’re sick.

I've never landed one, but I've found them easier to commit to than a regular frontflip. idk why tho.

You will probably be able to get the rotation pretty easily, but I always fuck up on the landing and eat shit.
