you need more speed and a bigger ramp

spencerryan (Apr 3, 2009 at 14:08)

no i think he needs to commit and what dose he expect he is going to lean back a little and just flip...nope

I think you need some more speed Gabe.

odin333 (Sep 3, 2008 at 17:29)

yeah you need more air time then that. i would start with 360's though... just to boost your confidence and get used to the rotation of the bike rather then jumping off the bike and letting it go 180. you also might want to try leaning back too...you just go off the jump and kick the bike out from under you..

but what do i know.

dallasn (Sep 4, 2008 at 17:07)

you're not ready for backflips. you aren't committing at all... try into water or foam first.

stop jumping off of the bike, spining will help also

bike more, get better with tricks, rotations and generally more comfertable in the air. you havent been biking to long and trying flips is pretty advanced but if you must, try em in water or foam pit, seriously..itll be easier on the body because garenteed the first few times you commit your gona get hurt

I don't know man, it's more like you're just purposely jumping off your bike every time.

And you need like 5X more speed.

i like how just about everyone that said he sucks is no better than the kid in this video, and atleast hes trying to learn. its scary to try and commit when you are first learning flips so give him a break.

to the rider, foam pit = no conciquence = not scary to commit = backflips learnt, 2 cents
