Heya, flips are nowhere near as hard as people make out... it is all about confidence and just really going for it.
It helped me learning to flip on trampoline and on normal ground first but it is not necessary

Alex (Dark Castles) it's really not the best idea to go saying things like that.
Next thing you know any idiot will put on some stilts and go try a flip and cause themself a serious injury.

Flips do take a lot of practice and patience and you need a safe environment to practice them in, preferably with someone who knows what they are doing.

You live in Birmingham? Cool.

The gym I use doesn't allow stilts (yet), but if you come along I can teach you to flip on your feet, which will make it easier to do on stilts. ...Being able to flip on your feet doesn't mean you'll definitely be able to do it on bocks, but it doesn't hurt. =)
