Just this video make so much sense I was trying them just by watching other UA-camrs do them and I had all of the steps wrong thank you I'm for sure confidence to do a backflip
I’m soon going to a indoor skatepark and it has a foam pit I have never been to a indoor skatepark so I wanted to know what new scooter tricks I could learn this has helped me build my confidence and I now know I will do it
Elisters Sprukts hope you have a blast! Foam pits are so much fun. I’d definitely recommend checking out my “How To” playlist, I have tons of trick tutorials that will definitely help.
thanks for the tutorial, this really helped me learn what the rotation looks like and it looks simple (even though its probably not that easy) and it will be helpful for other beginners | intermediates thanks Chase!
I’m going to try to land a backflip at my local this week on a hip that I’m very comfortable with because I don’t prefer quarters since I don’t get much pop off of them, I’m not very good, my best trick is a heelwhip fingerwhip, I don’t have access to a foam pit or matress near me, but I can land a backflip on a trampoline, I’m just afraid I’m going to land on my back or head or overshoot or undershoot the backflip, any tips for me before I send the backflip?
Keanen Pham you got this! Just make sure you are very comfortable going upside down on a trampoline first. Sometimes it can even help if you hold your scooter in your hand and do a backflip on your trampoline. If you are going to send the flip on a hip that is totally cool but since you won’t be landing straight like a fly out backy, I’d definitely recommend tilting your head to the side a bit to turn it into a bit of a flair so you can account for the landing on a hip. Another thing you can do is tape pillows to your back and chest to make yourself a moving foam pit. (Sounds funny Ik, but I did it 😂)
Chase Rost Thanks for the tips, the pillows taped on your back is actually a really smart idea and I think my friend is bringing a mattress to the skatepark so I should be fine
What are some tips I can backflip on cement without scooter and also backflip off things taller than me but I can’t bring myself to do it on a scooter 🛴
you got this man. a couple things you can do to help you get comfy doing it on your scooter are: 1. if you have a trampoline near you, you cna hold your scooter in your hand and then huck the flip so your body knows what it feels like to have your scoot in your hands while upsidown. i would also recommend hucking your first on onto resi or at least a mat of some kind. it not then you could always tape pillows to yourself and be a moving mat haha. sounds funny but i literally did this since there was no resi near me.
I already know how to backflip onto the top of a resi box but am having a hard time doing from a smaller takeoff and to concrete. Do you have any tips to get over the fear?
Best thing you can do is try to flip out of as many different transitions as you can. The more you do, the less scary they will become. Couple tips: when flipping out of bigger ramp with steeper transitions, you wanna start the flip a pinch ealier and push through the ramp to get yourself out of the ramp. For smaller ramps with mellower transitions, your going to have to generate that pop. So get ready to pop right at the top of the lip. This will help give you enough time to get the flip around.
Definitely make sure you commit. that is the number one thing. when you go to send your first one, you just have to tell yourself, "i'm going to hold on and fully rotate." Heres a couple extra tips to make sure you’ll get close within a couple ties: 1.Make sure you have enough speed 2. Flip out of a ramp that is steep enough to flip you but not so steep that it keeps you in the quarter pipe. (preferably a fly out with super little or no copping.) 3. wear as many pads as you can. 4. the first one is always the scariest, but just keep in mind as soon as you send the first one, it will be so much easier to get your body and mind to send more. Hope this helps mate! Definitely let me know how it goes or if you are stuck on any specific part of the flip.
that's sick dude! and i definitely got you. Doing flips out of banks is definitely a different kind of flip that requires a slightly different technique. When you pop out of a bank, you have to generate the "pop" that a quarter normally would. The way to do this is to jump up then focus on rotating. If you've ever seen anyone flair flat. Then you can see that they first jump straight up to generate enough air time, then they tuck in and pull the flip. Now let's take the same idea to a bank. Since there is no lip or copping to kick us around, we gotta jump and pop our body up using our legs, then curl up and rotate it around. Hope this helps mate! Definitely let me know if you are able to take your flips to more mellow ramps.
I've done backflip a lot of times but after a winter right now my fear came back and im here learning again. My main problem is not backflip but whats after. After landing im little bit shaky and i cant get over this feeling and interesting part is its only in one skatepark. Tips to overcome fear or shakiness if someone knows will be very appreciated!!
I'd recommend trying to send a few flips on some different ramps. When you are able to get flips down on different ramp it'll help you get rid if any shakyness. the more you do the the more the landing will feel smooth. Also make sure you are spotting your landing, the earlier you are able to spot your landing the better the landing will feel since your brain will be able to know whats happening sooner. hope this helps. Definitely let me know if your still struggling at all.
@@ChaseRost i got rid of it on the ramp ive always done it but now i have a little fear trying it on other ramps because i overthink it there do i just need to send it and try different places?
I can do backflips on wood ramps but I'm scared of trying it on something with coping because of falling back in but I still want to try and I'm not really sure how to make sure I don't fall in
natan don’t worry about the coping, it’s almost identical to doing it flyout of a normal quarter without coping. Only thing with coping is you’ll feel a slight bonk right as your take off, but besides that the flip will rotate the exact same. You could also try to start the flip just a pinch earlier so you completely avoid the copping all together. Hope this helps mate
@@ChaseRost thanks dude one more thing does it make it more sketchy if the coping is somewhat thick because that's what it's like at my local and I would ask would having lots of speed pop u out more cause when I do it at the wood flyout it didn't really matter too much
natan definitely of the copping sticks out a bit more, that can make it harder since there will be more of a bump on the way out. But overall if you do the same thing that you do on a normal wooden ramp it will be almost identical. Altho I’d definitely try to find a spot on the ramp where the coping doesn’t stick out as much. Going a bit faster can help to as it’ll give you more air time to spot your landing a bit better
I really want to send a backflip but I’m scared of not fully commiting. I can double backflip on a trampoline and my best trick on my scooter is an inward whip.
You got them man! sounds like you have good arial awareness since you can already dub backie on a trampoline. you just gotta stay committed and hold onto your scooter. since you can already backflip on your trampoline, your body will naturally know when to open up and spot the landing since your already used to flips. when you go for your first one, just make sure to keep your head tilted back and keep looking for the ground. once you spot it your good to go!
Miles Kelly definitely try your absolute hardest not to bail. Bailing mid flip will almost always end worse than holding on and over or under rotating. Make sure you are pulling your scooter tight when you take off. When it come to actually sending the flip it’s good to know how to get out of the bail but at the same time try to only focus on fully commit it and sending the full flip around.
Definitely make sure you pop. thats for sure the number one thing. if you don't pop up you will not give yourself enough time to get the flip around. try to picture your doing the biggest bunny hop you can outta the bank and then just as your back wheels is leaving, lean back and tuck in as tight as you can. id definitely recommend trying your first bank flip out of a decently steep bank just so it feels similar to a quarter.
BBcubing those are definitely fears that most to everyone has when sending them for the first time. I always recommend if you have a mattress or foam pit to send it on there first but if you don’t you could always get a couple of friends to stand on the sides of you and spot your landing so they could catch u if it goes wrong
I know how to backflip on rezi but everytime I take it to concrete I always feel I’m gonna flip back into the quarter that’s the only thing stopping me :(
Shawn Shoobridge its exactly the same on concrete as it is on resi. Try to find yourself a quarter that doesn’t have coping or atleat has copping that doesn’t stick out as far so it’s not mentally messing with you. MKe sure you keep the same amount of speed as you would on resi and you got it.
i'm scared i might land on my head and i don't want to try and land it on concrete but i don't have any foam pits or rezis near me. so my only option is to commit on concrete
if you're sneaky, you might be able to sneak a mattress into your local, or sometimes if you ask the city if you can bring a "portable training pad" they will let you. but you got it right, commitment is the most important part for sure. you got this! Definitely let me know on your progress
There is no where for me to learn this since I have a concrete park and there’s no where else to go with a foam pit, I’m not able to bring a mattress and so I don’t know where to learn it.
there are two more things you can try before just having to fully send it. You can get two large dudes on each side of you so if you happen to under flip or over flip they can push or grab you to save you. That route is a bit risky as the two other people on the side of you need to know how to catch u depending on how the flip is going. the other option is to bring the foam pit with you by taping pillows to your chest and back. this option might sounds funny but trust me when i say it works. i used this method myself as i had no foam pit or resi near me
I’ve always rode my fork like this. I personally like how it feels. It also helps with tricks like nose manny’s and foot jams. Also it helps minimize speed wobbles when pumping super fast.
you'll get there man! Definitely check out my how too playlist, i have tricks on there that range from lvl 1 to 10. ua-cam.com/play/PLO4_z7G-gYba9iSdvR_NyxybSlJ7LKwjd.html

Backflip is definitely a trick that is a battle of the mind, as opposed to most other tricks, were it's a battle of strength.
Lucas Ustick Definitely agree. 👌🏻💯

Did you land the backflip?
some of the best vids on yt, trying to do more rail trucks would be a cool vid💕🔥
Great suggestion man! defiantly will try to make a rail trick focused video soon!
Thank you for teaching now I know how to backflip in scooter park
Heck yeah absolutely Mate! thats so sick, if you ever get a clip, you'll have to tag me on insta so i can see you landing it.
@@ChaseRost I really dont have instagram cause im a kid but I can send I link if I go to skate park if I have the video :)
This helped a lot man! ✊🏽
Kai Peacock Stoked this helped man!!!! Always love hearing when these tutorials help.
Thank you helped a lot
Xyrez 1 heck yeah absolutely! Stoked to hear my vid helped!
I learned a backflip today I've never tried it before and landed it on the sixth try!!!
Yoooo!!!!!! you the man, thats so sick to hear man! Welcome to the backflip club
Dude I really want to try a backflip. I’ve been doing flips all my life with gymnastics, to cheerleading, to trampoline. I just need to send it
You sooo got them! you for sure will have that aerial awareness down since you are already so used to flips. just stay committed and you got them
Thanks. I landed it
Ahhh heck yeah! Welcome to the backflip club
I’m gonna hopefully send it today on a wooden ramp but I can double backflip on my trampoline so I hope I can get it around:)
Mezzahh you so got this dude!!! Sounds like you must have great aerial awareness, you’ll stomp this first try!
Lo voy a lograr 😊
you got this!
I am going to try a backflip tomorrow and I am going to bring matrices to try and soften the landing 🥶
Right on!!!!!! Definitely let me know how it goes. You got this 🔥
@@ChaseRost because of lock down and things I could not go send it 🥲

i have one indor near me but its skateboards only my only local in concrete
What if I just send it to resy
Coby Parks that’s totally good too. Definitely better to resi than straight to concrete. I’d say resi is actually your best and most realistic option.

are you trying them into a foam pit? also do you have enough speed when you are attempting them?
Nice.I also can do this,watch that.
I'm very scared to try
Ahh man you got it, try not to stress backflips. Once you get the first one out of the way, they only become easier and easier
Thanks man

Looks like ima break my back
naaa you got this, just make sure you are sending it first into foam so theres no backs breaking
Tomorrow I’m sending it to wood for the first time ever trying it
You got it dude!!! Good luck. Definitely have to let me know how it goes
Man that's so scary, have you hit yourself by doing this before?
