A back flip is hard to master I did Mens Artistic GYmnastics for 9 years w00t could do double back flip on a mat, well there are a few secrets,
1.Bend knees alot
2.swing arms Very powerfully
3.make sure u dont trow ur head back
4.Have a mat to land on lol
5.it helps to have a person who spots you,they just put their hand behind you to keep you from coming down on ur head,helps ur confidence.
6.make sure you jump up not backwards
7.Make sure u never jumpin the air and then do a back flip,trust me my neck still hurts after 4 years
8.be carefull
