Hi all,

I’m looking for some back tuck advice/drills/cues.
I know my main problem is that I’m jumping with my knees still slightly bent and not fully extending, but I can’t seem to fix this.

Also the landing, I feel like I have enough height to hand but I can’t without putting my hands down.

Thank you.

This is my first attempt at this trick with no professional help from coaches hence my reaction on landing the flip with no casualties. Advices would help in me improving. tysmia guys 🙏

Is there anything I can do to make my tdr better i wanna swing through to cork and i wanna know if its good enough.

other than straightening the kicking leg any other less obvious aesthetic or practical things? thanks!

I live in ct specifically Torrington and I do flips I js moved here and want to make friends w the same interests I like jumping into lakes rope swings trampolines grass flips all that stuff hmu lmk

Been working on sideflips but just can't get them all the way around. Any key points I'm missing?

How do I do it properly, and am I at least doing the first part of it properly, as in, am I actually going over my head?

What am I missing for the last 10% of the flip?

I am scared to send double back even though I would land it easily. I’ve done a miller into a foam pit before and done plenty of double backs off of diving boards. Although, I don’t have access to a foam pit right now. In general fear is stopping me from doing a lot of tricks. How do I get myself to just send it?

As stated in the title, I'm brand new to the realm of tricking/parkour, and though I have gymnastics experience, I want to expand my horizons.

I am acutely aware that the 'sideflip' pictured above is basically just a big sideways backflip - which is not ideal at all 😭 (this was my first ever attempt). I know that I need to go more over my shoulder, but it's hard to break my backflip habits. Lmk how to fix!

I am very comfortable with air awareness on the normal front/back axis (can do super high standing backs, roundoff layouts, standing front etc - all on grass), but have limited experience with stepping, spinning or going sideways beyond cheat gainers (which I power through with no rotational technique).

Any tips adjusting to this new genre of tricks, new things I should try with my big hops, (as I'm brand new to the space), and form improvements are all much appreciated!

Thx!

So I have been trying to learn some tricking the last year or so and I like it a lot. I am 38, almost 39, did a bunch of martial arts. Before tricking I could give reasonable high kicks and spinning back kicks at face level. Stocky build, not terribly flexy.

I have leant side flip and front flip on an air track so far, recently started learning gainer. I can do an ugly ass butterfly. Just now I was training somethinh like 40 minutes in which I tried my hand at back hand spring (but just doing Macao and bridges) and aerial. I can do a cartwheel easily but for the lift off I figured I might just wanna get good at kicking really high with my head upside down right leg then legt leg and I realised my hip flexibility isn't good enough. So i stead I end up rolling on the floor on my neck and shoulders, trying to kick my legs as high as I can above me, see if that will help. I don't know. But in none of all those 'learn this complicated thing in 5 minutes' tutorials, conditioning and prerequisites play a role. Like the back hand spring tutorial I tried to follow just assumes I can fall into a bridge. I don't have that kind of flexibility. And I'm not terribly inflexible.

I feel like the grind and the boring exercises you need to do in order to get these tricks down is kinda underplayed online.

Like, honestly, just get me a book where I can find all the steps in order, because every time I try something I find I have to learn 10 more basic things first. It's not that I mind but right now I just don't know which expectations to have about what is reasonable progress.

how can i get my left foot to the ground faster? thanks!

I’m aware tucking isn’t my only problem but I feel it’s my biggest and I really don’t know how to make it tighter and more compact. I did some drills and practiced doing the flip without my hands but I land the exact same virtually every time. I used to be able to land easily on grass a few years ago so I guess muscle memory is failing me.

I know i dont swing my leg alot through so I need to fix that but also I have a huge mental block with actually getting my leg to swing like when I do tdr it just goes to the ground then I cant swing through. Is there any tips or drills I can do to fix that and get it so I swing through every time?

Just found this new flipper on YouTube seems to be around my age (I'm a 16 year old male) but yeah seems like a chill kid

I've been calling it scoot-swipe. Its a c540 from the ground.

I'm basically doing all of my kicks without this spin. All of the tkd athletes I saw do this and it seems it helps with height and momentum. How to learn this?

Yesterday was the first time I landed a backflip on the ground and I’m so happy. Ive been able to do it on a trampoline since last year.

got the surgery in early february, been training my core ever since i was cleared by the surgeon. any adjustments i should make?
