Double Back Flip - Gymnastics

In my opinion the double back flip is the technique that seperated intermediate gymnasts
from the really good ones. Of course you should be able do all the single flips before you try this and I recommend everybody to try this flip into water at first.

• To learn the double back flip, build up mats and mintramp as shown in the illustration.
• Go into a handstand and bounce off a couple of times. This simulates a good roundoff.
• Then do a backflip on top of the mats and keep going with a backroll.
  The mats have to be super soft for this.

Trainer advice: Double Back Flip - Gymnastics

• The mitramp version shown aboe is one of the best ways to learn the double back flip.
  1m sprinboard-water-jumps can help too.
• A more professional method of learning this is jumping from a tumbling trak into a
  gymnastics pit ( foam rubber cubes ).
• Warm up and stretch sufficient before you work on difficult flips like this one.
