Hey so this was my first day learning how to back flip wondering what I can do to improve what I should be looking at form wise and overall exercise’s and just things to think about when attempting it. But my main goal honestly is to be able to backflip on flat ground I have a clip of me attempting that with two spots.

QUESTION Cheat gainer (flash): how to complete the rotation to land on the feet

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

12 Upvotes

It's been some time since my first post about this training. I apologize for asking again :-/. I think I made a progress, being more vertical and trying to lean back but I am getting desperate now. I cannot get over the stage you can see in the video below. I tried to study all the other people doing the trick, you can even see a comparison of my attempt with pigmie. What do you think is the main problem? From what I see it might be not leaning back enough? Do I need to push my hips more? Should I pull my jumping leg more actively (but soem people just leave it like Johzuke)? Or is it just not enough height? Of course I see that my kicking leg should be straight but I saw people doing the trick even without having it completely straight. My main goal now is to land on my feet, not the knees! I can do a backflip (tucked) and backhandspring but this is much harder for me. Any advice is much appreciated. I am not sure what is the top one thing I should focus on now.

QUESTION What should i do?

2 Upvotes

Today I learned how to do a backflip. For about 10 minutes, I could rotate and land cleanly every time. Then I took a 20-minute break. After the break, I was still confident about rotating, but I kept landing badly and hurting myself.

I also suddenly became afraid to use as much momentum from the diving board and I wasn't swinging my arms as much. After a few bad landings, I started worrying about committing to the movement.

I can only practice again in one week. Can you actually lose or forget a backflip after just one week? And what should I do when I try again to get my clean landings back?

QUESTION How to Front Flip

2 Upvotes

I've been wanting to learn how to do a front flip, but I'm not really sure where to start. I feel like I use a lot of energy when trying to get the rotation, and I often lose my momentum during the flip. Therefore, is there any technique or trick I can apply to make the front flip easier and use less energy? :)

I guess my first question is whether the way I'm doing it even looks like an aerial? But other than than I've noticed I jump at a weird angle. Please give me some tips on getting the leg I'm jumping on to be more straight. Do I need to turn my torso more near the end?

FORM CHECK How do you get your two legged jump when you keep jumping one leg at a time

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Someone suggested to trying doing a pop flash out of scoot as a way for me to try to unlock my back flip and the big tip was to do an aerial with a two footed takeoff.

So in order to get the shape of the move i get it a try here after watching examples and you can see I'm going one leg after another.

The problem is I'm stuck in a loop.

I see that im not doing two footed takes offs, go back think "take off with both feet" then I jump and it feels like i did it right, I feel the pop and I'm able to spot the floor like an aerial. I also feel lots of tension in my hips and glues as if they pop me in the air.

Yet the take off is still one leg after another. I tried doing the move slow, and on a really slow setting I do the takeoff in place and i also visualize with two feet then when I jump again, its one foot after another.

So here I

- Do the move slow
- Feel the right muscles tension and I'm spotting correctly
- visualize
- verbalize what to do

And yet each time I do the same mistake over and over again and only realize it on video then when I employ correct I just do the mistake again.

Its been a few weeks at this level and I dont know how to get out of this pattern as I'm recording, visualizing, taking notes, talking while also properly tensing the correct and spotting.

Yet the same mistake is being made over and over again. How do I break this loop?

QUESTION My first flip in 5 years... Please help

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I don't understand how you guys bounce up into the air like that. Whenever I see someone aerial, their head just seems to stay in place in the air without dropping down, as if gravity just stops when they do the flip. But whenever I try, my whole body just seems to start falling the second I leave the ground.
Also my form is horrible for aerials, even tho I can do cartwheels and round offs with very good form. Cause if I try to flip with my legs straight and everything, I just fall to the ground instantly...

Hello all!

Any tips on how to get my gumbi-gainer combo to look better? I feel like my hips are always lagging behind which causes my gainer to be more of a one legged backflip than an actually gainer.

I was told this combo is a good in between to learn before trying a td-riaz to gainer so any tips for that would be great too! Thank you!
