Hey everyone! Hope this new video finds you well. It's a little different from my typical videos, but I thought that this video style could be an easy way to answer this common question. Don't worry, the typical tutorial videos will still be coming! If you find this video useful though, leave a like! Stay flippin' awesome. :)

[@selahgrant6069]

Christopher Tung I just learned how to do a backflip today because of this tutorial...thanks bro😃😁👍🏾

[@tadetumbles4259]

hey guys, I have a tip that helped me ALOT. so basically just find a trampoline, yours or your friends , and then practice that flip , while listening to some music. do the flip *only* when the beat drops. do that over and over for some time. then go on the ground and play that song. I automatically jumped and did my back tuck 🌈😂

[@tadetumbles4259]

Marios M. Maybe try going to trampoline park, or put some pillows on mattress, that'll do too. Or maybe jumping pillow thingy, just be carefull

[@desiderata3300]

[@Hitman_4Hire]

I remember doing my first flip it was the back handspring it was in 5th grade and i actually had no prior knowledge of this flip this also happened in my Dance class at school and i was peer pressured to do it lol it was because i said i could do a backflip i dont know where that confidence came from so i did it but it wasnt a backflip but thats what i thought it was and to get myself over that fear of doing flips i just think back of me being a kid who didnt have a fear.

[@TheEndersMine]

While you were gone i overcame my fear of doing flips on the ground.. Now i can do a backflip (cant land it fully) a backhandspring, and a roundoff backflip (It's "Flipping" fun XD)

[@brandonsever2576]

Great video! Another point I'd like to add, learning new flips in the sand can help a lot, even if you don't live close to a beach. I landed my first cork on an outdoor volleyball court made of sand, so that's usually an option. I also taught my friend how to backflip in the sand, and I got kinda close to sideflips but falling didn't hurt at all. My point is, before you try a new, scary, flip, do it on sand first!

[@friendlymontages]

Long story short - I was watching some random suggested video, clicked another random video about some guy "Picking up girls," skipped through it 'cus it looked boring, skipped to the end, and found you. Literally this is the first video I clicked and I realized you're at Bear Creek (Lived there for 4 years!) I wish I met you when I went to Boulder because I seriously have an issue with flipping, haha! I graduated a year ago :/

When i was small i did a backflip and got injured so bad that I thought i shouldn’t even try to do them again in my life and yet here iam watching your video..

[@justdidit3933]

It's easy. You develop muscle memory through progressions, tell yourself you will now attempt it on the ground, then do it. Works every time.

[@neno3123]

Didn’t work, thanks though.

[@neno3123]

I think this will work if you solemnly believe you will do it.

[@justdidit3933]

@@neno3123 You probably didn't follow the right progression. Your final step before attempting it on the ground is doing one from a hard, ground-like surface and landing on something soft. Going from that to Ground to Ground is easy.

Damn, the world ain't that big after all. Actually knew your channel looong before Connor Murphy. Did tricking on and off for about 2 years, but got bored of it lately, and now try to focus on building a better physique. When they mentioned tricks and flips, I knew I should know this guy lol, because the tricking community is quite small, then I remembered when you mentioned your name. Lucky you for meeting Connor, I wish I could meet him and ask about some of his routines and diet but keep up the Tricking !

[@ChristopherTungFlips]

That's crazy dude! Thanks so much for the encouragement and for this comment. Connor really is an awesome guy. While I do love tricking, I've also started working on building a better physique and have put on 20 pounds of muscle over the past year! Best of luck with the bodybuilding!

[@weekendwonders1813]

I started flipping (on the trampoline) at the 5th grade. I was around 9-10. I'm 12 now and i can land my front flip perfectly on trampoline. My friends are trying to teach me a back handspring. I know who to do one. Arch your back, swing your arms, push with your feet, and have straight arms. I'm just to scared to flip back.

[@ianpaiva8692]

i was scared to do a backflip too but i just went for it and i did it. If you can do a frontflip then you can do a backflip. Backflips are easier, but they're also scarier. good luck

[@noacelina]

This video is so helpful thank you so much for sharing and just a quick question could I practice the flips on sand or is it better on harder ground

[@ChristopherTungFlips]

Sand is safer and more forgiving when you don't land the trick, but is harder to get height on for the same reason (since the sand doesn't provide a solid surface). Harder ground (let's assume grass) can be a good place to learn as well, but failing a flip will probably be a little more painful. I started on the grass. Optimally, I would try your flips from an elevated surface into a sand pit if available first, then move to grass. But, if you don't have a sand pit, grass is okay to start with!

[@noacelina]

Thank you! Ill try from an elevated surface.

I can do a perfect frontflip, even can travel a 3.5 m distance with solid height using a similar method like when you do a kong vault, but Im so fucking scared of attempting a backflip and sideflip, although I landed sideflips before on grass...but one day I fell almost on my neck (I forgot to tuck) and since then I started building resistance to it, there are days when I try to attempt it, I run straight line and even do the gather step method and I just pussy out...its getting really frustrating, not to mention Im afraid of doing a backflip, I can land it on a matress but I go waaay back instead of achieving that good height and straight line midair, Im afraid of even doing it on trampoline.

Do you have to be below 10 percent bodyfat to do a flip? I noticed leaner people make it look easy. @Christopher Tung

[@ChristopherTungFlips]

Great question! I would not stress about body fat percentage, but being leaner would be helpful! There's a guy on KZbin (not sure if he still makes videos) named No Excuses who did tricking videos while probably around 25% body fat.
