Geoffrey Robertson LOL, No...I'm still working on it. I spend most of my gym time working on my back handspring and back tucks. I can only get about 5 tries of the front tuck on the spring floor before my shins are spent until next week so it's usually the last thing I practice before times up. For being 44 yrs old I think I'm doing OK. I'll try to get some vid and post next week...I will always accept constructive criticism .
Not yet, I missed a couple classes because my second grade daughter had a school musical last Thursday, I have norovirus tonight and I'm so weak I can't make class, and next week I'm on-call for work. I will do it and post it though. Thanks for the encouragement.
This is the best video ever, i knew how to do a front flip before but i realized I was doing it all wrong & hitting the ground early the smallest tips gave me amazing results i now know how to do a fronflip and its amazzzzzinnng
Man I've seen a lot of tutorials through years, and today I've seen yours. I must admit that yours are the best ones I've seen. You really explain the essence for doing flips and give very useful advices. Here, you have my subrscribe :)
Just found your channel. Awesome! Showing us the basics. Master the basics and mastery comes later. 2 thumbs up. I will observe, apply and practice! Thanks!
Thanks so much, you about to take my parkour game to another level every tutorial leaves out throwing you hips and butt back first to but almost done your flip already , I knew that's what I was missing.GAME TIME!
Thank you thank you so much i landed the highest i have ever landed since i started tricking no joke even your backflip tutorial i'm so happy i will all of your tutorials now
you really do a great job in teaching someone you seem to have pateince for teaching people the way you talk it shows it. thanks for the tips also it will help me learn this better. Jim
man, thank you very much! i have never done a Flip in my live, i started doing it on a bed and i landed on my back, but now i do the whole round before landing on the bed, im goin to try it on ground soon :) Thanks buddy! :D
Me too thunder striker it helped so much all the other vids weren't good and did not help but this was the best video on how to do a front flip on the whole of RUclips
@fladragonme well as it is a weird feeling ( getting used to flippiong through the air) so its will take many many (25 -100s) of flips until your body starts to "Feel" the right spot to open. It is also amore difficult flip to land as you dont see the ground before you open, like in a back tuck. What did you mean by "im always very short before a face plant"? can you elaborate please.
Thankyou for the tutorial!! It helped me alot.. I lean forward instead of back lol.. Havent master it but So far im good just need to learn how to land.. The flip i got it right
That was a great tutorial. I just recently learned to do a front flip. When you do them, even when you jump, the entirety of your rotation is at a fixed point in the air and you seem to land in roughly the same spot as you jumped from. When I do mine, I move from where I jump, and my rotation lasts all the way until I have landed, but I have landed in the tuck position that I flipped with and I end up about 8 feet away from the point of takeoff. Do I need to jump more vertically?
hey I have 2 questions for you, first I wanna let you know that I can do a standing front flip jumping from the ground and landing on a trampoline, 1st question: do you recommend me to try it on the ground? 2nd question: do you recommend me to try a double front flip on a trampoline?
Very informative video. Though I have to say that last flip where you landed on the side of the stack of mats looked like it hurt like hell and cut away just before you fell over, made me lose my shit. Everything else helped me tons though.
@elhombre698 you are correct sir. The main point of the take off is to get you shoulders to rise up so you have your core muscles locked so they can throw your upper body in unison. The arms to ears method is just a way to help people practice that consistently. Once your body knows the correct body position you can tweak the trick for yourself and things like arms 100% vertical becomes less important. Nice catch though
I do front flips running, or standing on a high object, but I didn't know it's possible to do it standing on the grond o.O P.S. Your tutorials are the best!
same, so what you can do is work your flexibility because it just helps so much with your balance and helps avoiding injuries. Or you can start up training to do kip ups until they are real neat, it helps getting comfortable with a part of the move (I know the kip up is very different as it starts on the ground and power is created differently but at least you dont risk falling straight on the head xD)
i wanna go forward with my front flips because i wanna get over something or i'm jumping off something so how can i improve the height and go forward????
dude i did my first frontflip on grass with my first try it wasnt a goodone but it was still a frontflip .I was falling crouched and i thought this will be fixed with training but it didn't I STILL LAND crouched and I start getting pissed off with my frontflips i dont know what to do I cant take that much height but i do the tuck perfect any suggestions?
@xXTheFakeDeathXx im 6 feet tall, so roughly 183cm. being taller does make it more difficult, and you will learn usually at a slower rate than very small individuals. The difference is you will be able to bring more weight and power in your tricks which can be beneficial when used correctly. Takes lots of practice, just like anything else.
I'm gonna try it Thursday at adult open gymnastics. If you don't see any more post from me I died trying.

You just got a new sub and a like and a nice comment =D now i just need a good place to practie thought
same, so what you can do is work your flexibility because it just helps so much with your balance and helps avoiding injuries. Or you can start up training to do kip ups until they are real neat, it helps getting comfortable with a part of the move (I know the kip up is very different as it starts on the ground and power is created differently but at least you dont risk falling straight on the head xD)
Thanks Man I was practicing on my bed the 2nd time I landed it BECAUSE I grabbed my knees and got more spin!
Thx man !

How tall are you? is 180cm of height a problem to do the flips?? thanks and a very good tutorial:d
@Humblemynd yeah i usd to train in big heavy 5-10 shoes but these feivues are amazing, favorite training shoes now
Wow, okay, so there's a whole science to this!
i have the form pretty good but i over rotate .. when should i untuck
@THExMPDx close enough. i shoulder rolled out, but i definitely was not expecting the janky landing that followed that flip
Man ima try this at school! :d
How high was your block?
