Initiate Rotation

How do you initiate rotation on lets say a backflip? I've been practicing on my tramp and I can do backflips all day long, but I can't seem to get the rotation in with a backflip.

Any pointers?

So a 360 backflip? Like a moby dick? Are you talking about on the tramp or water. I cant do them on water but for a tramp just use your arms to throw you into the rotation.

ooh gotcha, I thought you meant how to take the tantrum to the water. How to spin a moby dick? Hell if I know Laughing
