Back Flip

A backflip, also known as a back tuck, is a flip where you jump, rotate your body 360 degrees backward, and land on your feet. The key to a successful backflip is a powerful jump that generates significant vertical height. This is achieved by swinging your arms up and extending your legs forcefully. Immediately after leaving the ground, you must tuck your body by pulling your knees to your chest to accelerate the backward rotation. Before attempting a full backflip, it's essential to master foundational exercises like back rolls and handstand fall-overs to build body awareness and the necessary muscle memory for the movement.
