i just found out about backflips and they look so cool, but they might be dangerous:P so, if you think they are, go ahead and delete this topic:P
here’s a tutorial from youtube:

Back flips are nice and all… but I prefer to learn kip ups (or nip ups if you prefer)
Although I did like the moonsault-esque one.
Oooh, how inspiring! Wish I could do that, but I don’t even want to try. I kind of like living… and I’d want to stay alive for at least some time longer.
Awesome video though, and good tutorial too.
I’ve never been much at any type of acrobatics, so I don’t think I’ll be trying that any time soon. There isn’t much of a use for knowing how to do all of that, although I can see how cool it would be just to show it off at random moments.
lol, practice them in lucid dreams, then when you get a false sense of confidence, try it iin real life!
i used to do that before… not anymore though
There’s yet another reason I must start practising capoeira when I graduate!
lol, exercising in lucid dreams, just what i thought about
wall jumps seem easier though
I’m not in good enough shape for backflips. I keep on seeing two people I know doing crazy acrobatic stunts, and it just makes me jealous.
Wall jumps really are a lot easier, though. Try doing multiple ones on a corner!
I tried to do a backflip once. I landed head down and my neck made a scary crunching sound.
ive always wanted to be good at gymnastic things - they look so fun. all i can do is a front handspring tho. but ive actually tried gymnastics while lucid and it didnt really work out. every time id go for something, the physics would seem to confuse itself and i just felt like i was both right-side up and upside down at the same time. so…i gave up on that one.
i learned to do a kip-up a while ago, but it’s winter now so i’m not doing much tricking etc annymore, i’ll go back to doing it in the summer again
