Looking for feedback on my backflip technique.
- Pre-bounce (as seen in the last 2 YouTube videos): Before takeoff, am I supposed to do a small pre-bounce on the mat with my feet like I see some people do? Or should I just load and jump?
- Lean-back: I know I'm supposed to swing my arms up and leave it there to catch your hands instead of swinging it down but when I bring my hips up my torso is leaning way back instead of staying upright. Once I start rotating, it feels like I'll never get my legs around to my hands
- Fear: I don't dare jump straight up because I've stalled three times, going up and then dropping and landing on my head
What do you think I can do to improve to be as good as you guys! Thank you so much!
