Saludos amigos de la comunidad SWC. In today's post, I'll talk about the progressions for a safe, easy, and quick backflip and frontflip in 3 simple steps or less. This was practiced by both those who had been training for a while but hadn't performed it with decent technique, and by beginners who wanted to learn the trick, which is actually quite easy. Stay and read this post, and who knows, maybe they'll be useful to you and you'll master the trick with us.

For the backflip, we have 2 simple steps that, if followed to the letter, you can learn the trick quickly. One tip is to wait, analyze, and control your movements to become more aware of the trick and have greater ease of execution. The first step is to jump high. When you're starting out with this trick, there's always the mistake of not jumping when you want to flip backward, and your body goes down due to lack of momentum. That's why it's always important to jump high.

The second step is to draw your knees toward your chest, followed by leaning your body back to perform the spin. It's important to remember to jump correctly, since at first, not knowing how to fully rotate your body can cause a lack of speed in the spin, which can be compensated for with the height of the jump. Obviously, this trick is important to perform on a padded surface to avoid hard blows to the head. When performing this trick, it's normal to feel fear because you don't know how to land, so always have a friend by your side to avoid injuries.

Continuing with the front flip, which is just as easy or easier than the back flip, with the difference that your greatest challenge will always be your height. It's important to jump high to avoid nasty falls that could damage your tailbone or legs. The first step for this trick is obviously to jump high, but a little tip that can help is to raise your gaze slightly. When performing this trick, it's common to look down at the ground, since that's where you plan to land. Keeping your head tilted down is what causes your rapid descent. That's why looking slightly up gives you an idea of how high and how far to jump.

The second step, just like the backflip, is to curl your knees up to your chest, with the difference that in the front flip you will raise your hips a little after jumping to give that extra spin, since at the beginning of the front flip it is common to fall on your butt due to the lack of momentum from the spin or because you have made a small jump. Whenever you have any questions, you can comment for some advice. That's all for today and I hope to see you in my next post💪
