Good first attempt mate you will get a flip with practice

BUT not like that

You really need wristguards pads and a helmet if you are gonna try it on grass better still get a crash mat or go to a gym meet
If you wanna know why look at the pics here

I did this walking on muddy tarmac

We couldn't show the one of Bexx head butting the car park it made to many people feel ill but there was a lot of blood

Have a look at all of these (most with pads) and think about buying some pads mate

wow ! no fear there !  :Cchatterbox:

but as jason said, pads are a great idea , as if you are injured you cant bock ! so would be a shame for the sake of some protection.

even if you can do the flips , things can go wrong, so i always use my wrist guards !

As for help on the fronts , it can help on a trampoline to get the right technique without to much pain , as you seem to be dropping your shoulder causing you to not go over straight .

but love the enthusiasm !!!!    :Cbiggrin: :Cbiggrin: :Cbiggrin: :Cbiggrin:

 :Cwideeyed: Your just going to hurt yourself like that.

You really need a mattress on the floor to land on or something soft, like that your just going to hurt yourself bad. And like acroair said you dont want to hurt yourself and be off your stilts for a long time.

when trying flips your really need a helmet! it really does hurt when you land on your head.

just make sure you can do it on a trampoline first to get the technique. and pull out your mattress to land on not the hard ground.

but on the plus side nice to see your trying. you need to go up before you rotate to give you more time and you need to jump higher.
