Ready for backflip

We have a new bocker amongst the ranks. Jake who is 12 and has been bocking just a few weeks since christmas. He's been to 2 gym sessions with us. First one he nailed his front flips, the second yesterday he nailed his backflips! Awesome kid, no fear and a natural talent....

Great vid Locky really enjoyed it.. The only thing is the guy with the black track bottoms and no shirt, he's put me off learning back fleeeps.. He looks like he's gonna break his neck every time he tried at first. LOL Its probably just me being too cautious but it looked so close a couple of times.. But great progress from the Welsh Bockers  :P

Yeah but sometimes you just gotta let them spread their wings and see what happens. It's not like he'd have died landing on his head, the mats are pretty thick.

Fair Play!

I went out for the firdt time with all my pads on at the weekend. Had great fun! Was running and tucking pretty well. Video to follow, can't wait to get down to a gym meet.

well done to them both, the dude, "wobbles" was it was tucking in the air rather than starting the flip from take off which is why he was landing on his head to start with, i dont think it will take him long though

That's incredible! ^_^ Is that his second time on bocks, or just his second time in a gym?
Either way, fantastic! He got it so quickly! Makes me want to go out and try a new flip.
Inspirational. ^_^
