      1 1/2 years ago I did a tuck but landed short and ended up in hospital. My talus (or as you say 90 degree part) wasn’t broken and now I have permanent damage to my foot. I do gymnastics and injured myself pretty badly so my advice is to not try this without a coach or knowledge on how to do one or if you have doubts. Don’t die

      Try jumping up and not backwards. Thats the biggest mistake u can do. And also can hurt you pretty bad. And dont get stuck on one flip try others too, frontflip, sideflip. The more air awareness you have the more helpful it will be in the future.

      Heini 433 I had the same fear. Well look u can actually work your way with different progressions. For example trying macaco to backhandspring to backflip. Or try cart arabian front to backflip. Also try asking a friend to spot you and search for a trampoline, its usually very easy to get the fear of it there.

      Record it and compare it to someone who can do them really well. Try to look at things like how they are using their arms, where they are looking at every part of flip etc.
      Also, leaning back too much is fairly common with beginners and to fix it you can try to look at something in front of you for as long as you can, tuck your chin in your chest and try to see your knees before you tuck. Hope this helps.

    I think this is the best way to learn a backflip. On piece of advice to anybody just starting out: it's fine to try to flip and end up landing on your knees so you at least get the feel for flipping and it becomes less scary.

      Ryan ODonnell Yeah, for me, I started of falling while on a flat surface, but able to make it from an elevation. Eventually, with some gymnastics training, I can do it without fear. The worst thing you can do is bail out in the middle. Otherwise, if you work your way up to it isn't likely you'll get too seriously hurt.

    • @ابنعبدالرحيم
      @ابنعبدالرحيم 6 років тому

      May May a lot of it is honestly getting comfortable with going upside down. As long as you feel secure it will make it a whole lot easier to try and land on your feet. It somehow becomes more natural once you practice it continuously, but at the same time you don't want to develop bad habits. So, at the end of the day, things that have helped the most for me were flipping on trampolines (though not everyone has access to equipment or training), and flipping off and elevated surface where I knew I could land. Really, its all about comfort and what works for you. As long as you keep practicing and trying to improve in a way that works for you, the progress you make will blow you away.
      Just don't do anything stupid.

  • @noone2noone711
    @noone2noone711 5 років тому +5

    I don't wanna be that person but just like with any skill, back tucks must have the proper technique to be executed properly and safely.
    I hope this makes sense as I'm writing from the top of my head but as a slight guide...
    Standing backtucks must have a set where you bend your knees, bring both arms back, keep chest up, then jump in the air extending arms as far back as necessary/safe. As soon as you get in the air, tuck your legs and try to bring them over you head and not just to your chest. Hands may be on your chins or tucked in the crease of your knees. Once you are tucked in the air bring you arms to your legs to help them rotate. Usually, you should feel your abs collide like in a crunch. You may feel this when you set and bring your knees over your head. Remember to never lean back when your in your set, usually easier to mistakenly do when doing a running pass with a tuck, as this will give you too much momentum and you will go flying back. Also, this gives your body less time to complete its tuck since that rotation takes up a good chunk of the tuck. If you do this, you will most likely land with straight legs instead of being tucked and this can be bad for your legs and will also not look good when you not only land with straight legs but fall on the ground immediately after. Also, never throw your head back. This gives bad posture as well. After you have tucked properly and your head is perpendicular to the ground, you may look at the ground for safety reasons. Remember to untuck. Its harder to remember in a front tuck but can still be forgotten to do. Forgetting to untucking can make you land on your back and serious injuries may happen. After you untuck, your legs should land in a 90 degree angle or somewhere around there. If you're ankles hurt, weight may have not been distributed properly when landing. Remember to never lean to one side of your body so this doesn't happen. And always land with both legs together. Sometimes, you can knee yourself in the chin if you bring your head and chest too far down when landing. Please don't do that, trust me, it hurts and can throw off your tuck. After, just stand up and *voila* , you've got a beautifully- done, safely-done tuck.
    As long as you follow said techniques, you will always land on your feet , whether toes, heel, the ball of your feet or your sole, and you wil never break your neck.
    *side note* Don't know who needs this but I could've used this back in my "learning to do back flips" days. Just recently I've started getting tumbling help from professionals as I am now a cheerleader so *trust me*

    Man, this reminds me of my own progression from back in the day. The most important parts are mentally committing to flipping (or else you won’t rotate); tuck your knees super hard to your chest (or else you won’t rotate quickly enough); and not opening your tuck until the last second (or else you’ll land on your knees). Oh, and keeping your head back (the body goes where the head goes).
