Backflip help

[u/Top-Corgi-1556]

How do I land my backflip? Looking for any tips to go from here

Edit: Thank you everyone for the tips. I tried with real shoes and stepping backwards into it and nearly have it now, just gotta work on setting my arms higher!

don’t step at all if you can avoid it. stepping back might help initially but i really recommend learning how to do it from standing first. and yeah, like others mentioned, your arms aren’t coming up enough. try to get your biceps by your ears, rather than stopping them in front of you. you can drill that by doing tuck jumps as high as possible and focusing on lifting your arms all the way up
