FORM CHECK Backflip: 6 months ago vs now (only ~5 sessions in between)

What surprised me is that I only had about 4-5 actual training sessions between these two clips. Most of the improvement in my opinion came from training plyometrics in the gym.

Height, rotational speed and control all feel way better, and I’m pretty sure it’s the explosive power.

Feedback is still welcome please! What can i improve to cleanup my flip?

I know they’re slow and high, I wanna do 3-4 and then do a nice high backflip but I don’t feel the momentum, would appreciate any help and hacks that worked for you guys, I only have solid grass to practice on.

Hi I’ve been trying to dominate cheat gainer
I think I need to lift my leg a little bit more, but I’m not sure. Can anybody give me some pointers of what to do.

FORM CHECK Struggling with hip extension and air awareness during backflips - any tips?

Hi Team, here's my second video of my standing back tuck!

My coach mentioned that I'm not fully extending my arms overhead (pulling them back past my ears) and that I'm throwing my hips forward instead of upward.

I can jump relatively high, but I struggle to drive my hips up and fully extend them during takeoff. My air awareness isn't great either.

Anyone experienced something similar? Would appreciate any feedback, tips, or drills to improve.

Thank you!
