you go off a jump, you rotate 180 degrees forward like your doing a frontflip. then you do a 180 degree turn to either your left or your right so that your upside down facing the take-off. then you pull backwards and rotate 180 degrees backwards so that you are still facing backwards but aren't upside down. then you would land backwards.

would it be a 180 backflip? or a 180 frontflip?

its pretty much impossible, unless you have like 15 seconds of air time. and have 3x the guts of bender.

By "180 degrees forward like your doing a frontflip", do you mean half a front flip?

If you did a half a front flip, you'd be upside down facing the take off.

Therefor the 180 to your left or right would make you face the landing while upside down, so your question doesn't make sense.

yeah, 180 degrees is half a circle, or half a frontflip technically, so then after you do that 180 degrees you would be looking at the take-off (upside down) correct? then doing a 180 to your left (or right) like a 180 but upside down. then rotate 180 degrees backwards like your doing a backflip.

It's a 180 frontflip, called a flail.

yeah but your doing 180 degrees of a frontflip, but your also doing a 180 of a backflip. so its like going halfway a frontflip, but then deciding you want to go back, but do a 180 while your deciding to go back.

you would need a huge lip to do be able to get enough air, i would pump weights before riding, its alot of hip and shoulder balancing

You could just continue the frontflip, either way you'll end up right side up again.

i know its nearly impossible, i'm not trying to attempt it, and i highly doubt anyones going to get close to even landing this. i'm just wondering if it would be a frontflip or a backflip since its the same ammount of both?
