A unique backflip tutorial that uses both video examples, and instructional text. We teach Sil how to do a backflip (who has only ever done them on trampolines before), and you can follow the steps one by one, to see what you are doing wrong!

NOTE: Turning your palms to the outside in the set is personal preference - Some people like to do it this way, as it can help you lock your shoulders when you jump up, but it is not necessary.

Also this tutorial is designed for trickers or other athletic people interested in learning how to do a basic backflip - if you are a gymnast you should learn the absolute "gymnast" way at a gymnastics centre (focuses alot more on form)

Finally, this tutorial was created through the knowledge of many people, I do not claim to be a professional coach who knows everything about backflips. We created this tutorial and the concepts in it from just dinking around at open nights at various gyms club. When we first learned backflips we were told to just try it, and thats what happened - it was from there that we learned how to spot and do them better.

Feel free to ask me any questions on how to do backflips. And don't forget to rate! :-)

Good luck and stay safe! Remember to use a spotter at first!

Im 18 and in decent shape. Im 6'1 and about 150 pounds. I just started wushu and im trying to learn a cartwheel. Im just curious if it is still possible to learn this and be able to perform this at my age given that I did not learn it at the times when my body was most flexible. Im sure I still can but what kind of things can i do to help myself prepare?

because if i didnt, someone would go and break their neck and then try and sue me for millions. millions i dont have. im just a teenager like most of the people watching this. its called covering my ass, and if you dont like it, dont bother trying to learn a backflip, the truth is its not very safe unless you learn inside a gym.

do you have to have incredible hops to complete the backflip easier?
