Backflip on skis vs standing

The extra weight on your feet and the poppiness of the jump might throw you off a little but it shouldn’t land you on your neck anything

Much easier on ski, although you'll have to be mindful that you've got a few pounds sitting on your feet which will feel much different than a standing backflip. Just make sure you throw it backwards and not upwards necessarily, as well as not bailing which common reasons people ultimately land on their necks while attempting backflips.

Ok so I should worry less about the pop and more about just hucking and tucking it?

You'll get better advice from other people but I recommend just sending it lol

Don't jemskis also help wit backflips?

standing backflip is technically more difficult and means you have a pretty good understanding of the flip. on snow it feels like a gainer off a diving board but with a lotta weight on your feet. but the lip basically gives you the rotation of the flip so that makes things much easier

you prob are safe to give it a shot and you won't land on your head/neck which is the only way you're really likely to get hurt on it

it's all in the hips. pop and bring the flip around and start looking for the landing immediately
