- I share with you how to learn flips faster and better so you don't make the same mistakes I did! During my journey learning flips and tricks I had many struggles. I could be so much better off if it wasn't for these 5 mistakes I learned the hard way!

Advice to my younger self
1. Find somewhere soft to land on, it doesn't make you less of a man
2. DON'T psych yourself up all the time, relax and put power where it should be
3. Don't get stuck on something you can't do. Move on, come back to it
4. Learn variations before just trying to move on to the next rotation
Damn 4 is so real also in breaking
JustJoshLight 3 and 4 i totally agree
👍🏻
Hi
I'm stuck in back handspring now
You should let people send in flip footage so you can correct it. I know I need some help!
Liam Gaeuman yes please
YEESS!!!!
My back full looks like s*** and i dont know what im doing wrong
I’ve been doing front flips for like 2 years now and it looks really bad and nothing has changed... help
@@prestonmorse2089 On ground or trampoline?
When somebody makes a video like this, you truly know they want you to actually teach you, not just look cool
I did an Arabian accidentally when I was trying to do a backflip i lost confidence and half way switched to a front flip and to this day I can do Arabians on ground
That’s awesome
Mbn lol
What’s an arabian
UpAtNight Hound a backflip but then you turn in the air and switch to a frontflip
liamVR kk that’s what I thought I just wasn’t sure
My rules:
1. Don't do anything you aren't sure you can do.
2. When you do it, stay calm and think of the movement. Drill it while on ground if it's necessary.
3. If you're sure you can do it, why not?
4. STAY AWAY from any sort of pressure. Social, yourself, it doesn't matter. Your actions have to be deliberate, calm and from your will alone.
5. Don't be an idiot. Brute force is never enough. If you can jump you can flip. Just know the technique and drill it until it's ingrained.
pigmie's friends : Hey man, you should keep your chest up .
pigme : YOU DARE OPPOSE ME MORTAL ?
Editing skills increasing like crazy every video! Thanks for the tips!
First reply XD
Bro, you are actually a flipping god. Good luck in the future!
Chix you wanna see some flips? Lookup Shosei
@@djmaydraws3862 Shit, that guy is insane!
Yo or look up gravitated equations. They not as good as Shosei but still 🔥🔥
Lol flipping god I am ten times better
@@jacksteel6557 haha same lmao
That's the actual only "i wish i knew" video that i'm 100% agree with
Could you do more videos on breaking the psychological barrier to do flips
You just need to bring yourself to do it on a safe surface like a swimming pool or an airbag.
That's just a matter of pushing yourself in a save environment. Sit van be fucking scary but on a trampoline or above water you're pretty much safe. Then you have to push yourself to do it, after a few tries it will get easier and easier
When I learned, I had two spotters and on soft gymnastics mats. Then I had only one spotter. Then one spotter that is a few feet away. Then no spotter. Then no mats. Hope this helps.
There are three options:
1. Just fucking send it
2. Accidentally fucking send it
3. Gradually build up to the flip you're trying to do, e.g. start by doing it onto tons of mats, slowly reduce the number of mats until there aren't any mats left
Another great video, I'm nearly 38 and have been following and watching you for nearly 2 years. Your advice, tips, honesty and humor have kept me going and helped my progress in PK, GYMNASTICS and body conditioning more than ever...keep up the great work and thank you bro
Noob here. #2 is so true for me. I spent a year way too scared to do a standing back tuck on ground. Too scared to even do it into a foam pit. Then I bought a trampoline and after a week I've been attempting on ground (with some pillows) multiple times with no fear or hesitation. One more week and I should have it.
I love your videos, keep it up!!!
got it
Yay
Chris Bandy what size trampoline is good bro ? :)
@@niall7833 I would recommend a 12-footer or bigger!
Ayu congrats on that. What other tricks have you learnt over the 10 months?
Great video! Loved how it was quick and to the point, but also super informative!
Thanks a lot man these tips are great, tip 5 especially resonates with me.
Absolutely right. .... lots of common experiences 🙌🙌🙌
Thanks for this man you are very inspiring to me and i know you wont see this much less reply but you are the person who made me inspired me to do flips. I started a tumbling class yesterday and i learned how to do a front flip on the trampoline. Thanks for the advice man.
Can u do an air awareness tutorial plz
You can't teach someone air awareness, that's something you'll just have to get by practicing
The technique thing is my friends problem,he doesn’t like watching tutorials to learn techniques,and he doesn’t want me to either,I’m progressing way faster than him and he still wonders why,I am going to show him this video
Been here since 4K subs love the vids
Got a trampoline 3 days ago can do some pretty good flips now thanks to u! Until I attempted a flip on the ground and land on my figure😂
Ow.
What flip did you attempt?
Budgieboy Gamez just a front landed on my ass but with my finger underneath
@@bluelightning3181 oof man, next time try using a mattress or some pillow haha
very useful tips!! thank you man!!
Thank you for sharing your experience! It helps a lot ! But now i need to focus haha
#5 is what i need to hear. I wanna do flips, capoeira, animal movement, gain mass, build endurance, get more flexible.... HAHA. But you gotta FOCUS!
First thank you so much it help so much while you was explaining I thought that you are talking about my life past few years.
But when someone already experienced say something like this really clicked my head 😊 thank you it's really helpful
I landed my first backflip on gravel today 😆😆😆
Congrats
Learned cody on tramp. Hope this vid will help me to get it on ground!
Loved this thank you
You are so funny man thx for all the info i m doing the same trying to gain weight and learn flips and i m getting little progress but with your tips i m sure i will progress alot faster now
Thank God,you made this video just in time
I think this video is good for beginners and veterans. My journey is almost like yours, use hella power pray to land lol.
thanks dude, this was really helpful
Every time he says 'what's up home slice' or 'but you gotta focus' I instantly hit the like button
Good video! I realise I may be stretching myself a bit thin, doing gym, work. sport and flipping... but I don't want to cut anything out :(
Everytime you say "but you gotta focus" a different funny way I wish there was a heart-likebutton like the one on facebook instead of a simple thumbs up ^^
Lucas, I wanna see if you can do Seat drop Back tuck on the trampoline!
especially rule #4 that was the main one thank u
Ye man I've asked lots of people who are experienced in flipping to a degree where they can judge what help them progress and most say learning the technique on the tramp then taking it to the ground! Luckily I'm getting one in a week so I hope I can improve majorly!
Number 6: Kojo’s Trick Lab
U mean the one in plan 0s video?
Much Love Pigmie 😊
Better than lots of motivation speeches good job!!!
Yoo nicevids dude!!
yo! thats an amazing video, than you so much man!
Great advice!
Great vid!
That's life bro :)
Nice video
Your skills are amazing and I wish I stood by these 5 things
So what Is Your Profile?
Meldris Or Zeliodas?
How on earth are you not freezing 2:05
because he is FOCUS!!
He prob made a warm technique
Loved this video
Yes you are right,I analysis this
Hey i noticed right at the beginning there’s some footage of you at Michigan State! One was at IM West and the other clip was in the gymnastics room at Jenison. Did you attend MSU?
Lucas I wanted to give you a tip on Cody’s so you can get them better so, if you bend your knees when you go to stomach by trying to put your feet to your butt and then swing your legs when you go up it will give you so much more power and momentum. Love your videos though.
So, for tip 5, should I work on flips 1 - 2 weeks and weights the other 1 - 2 weeks then work on flips again?
Great jop man !!!
i wish i could do tricks like Lucas
Keep practicing and you can! He's been flipping for over 5 years. Just keep trying
mhh buen video, lo tendré en cuenta :)
The power of the Trampoline
I loved the last advice stay focus on one mostly
Very useful! However I miss the vlogs , I think it would be nice to have a vlog once or twice a week if you have the time of course :D
NSD Workout I aggree

Yh man that would help a lot
Thank you
I just learned how to do a back flip yesterday and I’m having trouble jumping directly up before tucking how can I fix that?
Thanks for all
Seriously
Thanks, bro .

*stimulate your senses*
You are amazing
I just started learning flips, I came on CZcams and this video popped up.
I like number 5, reminds me of that old chinese proverb:
"the person attempting to travel two roads at once will get nowhere".
BUT YOU GOTTA FOCUSSSSSSSS
I just tried my first butterfly twist on the ground today but I kept landing on my butt and i feel like im not jumping as high as I can when i do it over a bed i feel like i jump way higher
What do you guys think I should learn next, please guys I could really use advice from you
Thanks Bro
My issues came from me being able to jump really high (not trying to show off) so my tuck speed sucked for a long time
thanks a lot men
That bench press dump was scary! Shit dude. Glad you’re ok.
How do u think I can improve more on my backflip
pigmie holding a binder thingy with a marker to look smarter Lmao
Calls it a "binder thingy" though he makes fun of him. Its a clipboard
Bloopdog lmao
He's reading from it
Guys I started tricking a few weeks ago and I can only do easy tricks like the kip up, the round off, cartwheel and the b kick
Very nice video
Ohh god please tell me how u recovered I have had shin splints for 6 months
Tibialis anterior excersizes and do your flips barefoot
I just started learning flips lol I learned the cartwheel from Ronnie street stunts and I'm learning the front handspring for weeks now lol, any tips? i use my cartwheel to progress into the front handspring
I just got my front handspring. It took a while, but believe or not, the easiest thing to do is just go for it. Don't be scared, the trick is to get your legs over fast and get a good running start. Good luck!
@@mariechoi-schattle3047 Gonna remember this! Do you focus on pushing with your shoulders too? Sometimes I get this moments where basically nothing happens lol. My fear kicks in and i can't even get to the ground anymore even tho i just did it (almost) right
YassinLwest Yes, pushing with your shoulders helps a lot. To practice this, get into a handstand, bend your elbows, then straighten them again. Just do this a couple times then attempt the front handspring. It should help with the fear too.
@@mariechoi-schattle3047 Thank you, Louise! I'm gonna let you know when I can do it. Do you have Twitter? I'd love to show when i completed it lol
I have no idea but i can do a front flip on a trampoiline but i cant do it flat please help me
Please make a touch down raiz tutorial 😁
Sound advice. But for the trampilone one has to know some technique, otherwise bad landing can lead to serious injuries. A pit foam /sand pit / pool/ a very thick mat (witu memory foam is far better than a trampoline, regardless if you know technique or not.
This video was filmed on my birthday.Also I want to learn to do the backflip but I just don't have the patience and I am scared to do the backflip and backhand spring.
Can u do 360 to rolespike
But you gotta FOCUS 😂😂😂
I wish I could do things like this
Thanks for the tips, I think it will help me do the front flip
Do stretches, a lot of flips require some flexibility and I was strung up very tight when I started of, I tore my hamstrings when I landed my first front flip. It wasn't fun.
I can backtuck on grass but it doesn’t feel right when I round off backtuck
Please do a 360 to btwist
Can you do trying your suggestions part 2
Thx shud help
I can do a backflip and am learning a front flip
Opposite for me
It is time for you to get really into Parkour and film your takes on the learning methods of some really useful Parkour moves.
Nice
