4:45 - my rigged technique to get used to going backwards
5:50 - emphasizing repetition
6:10 - learn it the right way
7:12 - I try the strait up jump but still lean back a little peace!

What I thought where I had the most confidence was actually at a beach! Not at the sand but actually at the ocean. I basically go to the waves where it hits me about knees deep. Obviously this makes it physically harder, but mentally I knew that if i flipped myself the water will catch my head. I knew that the backflip wasn't as hard physically then mentally so I was willing to trade the more physically and make it easier mentally. When I tried it the first time, I just couldn't commit mid jump so I basically did an awkward landing where my body rotated sideways mid air and the water completely caught me. Right after I felt that the water was 100% going to protect me, I felt all this confidence and tried it the second time. I got it down, but the landing was something I needed to work on, so i kept trying and eventually got it perfect. What I did to progress the backflip was I got closer to land and less on water, so eventually I went only maybe about shins deep and I was able to do the backflip much easier. This is just my way of doing the backflip and for those who have the beach near them! Hope this helps.

I loved how he kept saying guys, and then went or girl... Or woman sorry 😂😂
I used to have the fear of doing a front flip and my mind kept preventing me from doing until I went to the beach, the sand was soft and the fall doesn't hurt as bad as a wooden or concrete floor, after I did it on the sand a couple of times and didn't have the fear afterwards, I started doing it on grass then the wooden floor, then the concrete floor, I got more and more confidence over time and now, I can do it easily. Just find a place where u know u wont feel as much pain as other places and just do it (Nike)
I can GUARANTEE that I won't land on my neck. What scares me is landing on my knees or toes. I'm probably going to use my sleeping bag for the landing, but I'm waiting until I attempt my 2nd ever double backflip tomorrow on my trampoline. Wish me luck! :D

He's a good guy. he has to preface so much cause there's so many ass holes out there who say "that's not how ur suppose to do it man." far to many keyboard warriors or egos out there. if it works for you do it. and encouraging others comes first in good people cause so many people don't. form can be added in. so cheers to a good tutorial and teaching/attitude/encouraging.

I started with the back handspring first and while you don't have to get them down properly,it still helps to have some mastery over that because once you're doing them,the fear that prevents you from trying backflips should already be long gone. A back handspring is also far easier to do than an actual backflip and once you're comfortable with the back handspring the transition to backflips are far easier. The only difference with the backflip from the back handspring is learning to jump higher and make sure you spin quicker by kicking your knees up towards your head. This still took me a little while to develop the speed in the spinning motion of the flip for a little while before I landed my first one without my hands touching the ground,but once I started to get the hang of it on flat ground I only kept getting better afterward until I had it down.
thank you so much it actually worked and I've been trying to do a backflip for a long time
"Yea you know what that's useful for" LOL XD wth man... i was listening to your explanation seriously and when you said that, i burst out laughing XD

Thank-you so much for this video, this is by far the most helpful backflip tutorial video I have seen on youtube. Honestly, even if I fail I still feel greatly motivated to overcome this fear.
I love this vid so much - the enthusiasm for spreading the word on the backflip is infectious
Whats your camera setup?
How mamy times can you make a video out of the mackacoo
Thank you for this video. I've wanted to be able to do a backflip for such a long time but was too scared. I watched other videos and they didn't really help but this one helped me make some progress. Much love!
This vid is in my opinion the best vid on youtube to learn backflips and back handsprings love the channel aswell man thanks for everything :)

This guy gave some pretty good pointers ... When I lernt how to back flip on a trampaline I started off with picking a side to flip to and I did that a few times and in less than 5 minutes I was able to do it... I really want to learn how to do it off a wall and flat ground now... And again thanks for the video it helped alot :)
You seem like a really down to Earth and likeable guy! Thanks for the video, helped a lot!
if you guys are not sure about this use a matrass from your bed and land on that

Well, you're still flipping over yourself, therefore it is not inaccurate. It's just like a back full, when people call it a backflip 360, technically it is still a backflip with a 360 degree twist, so that is also not inaccurate.
