So ive been doin backflips with frontside 3's on the trampoline since about 3rd grade so now im in a really bad habit of that and im havin some trouble takin it the other way. Any tips?

(tips on the H/S 540 and S-Bend are still appreciated)

Try it switch! Or you could learn it the other way on a tramp. I actually learned it on a tramp frontside first too. I forced myself to learn it backside. It was a few years later that I finally learned the whirly. Not too sure the tramp part helped a whole lot other than just knowing what to expect. You can do it, just gotta learn something new again, a bit of a challenge!

im actually workin on the whirly right now cuz my tantrums suck... got em on the trampoline and hopin to take em behind boat soon... when you do your "backflip" or tantrum, after you leave the wake or tramp, go into your normal rotation and then throw your lead hand across your face like your trying to punch somebody next to u (i ride regular and throw my left to my right shoulder) i'll post up anymore when i stick it and can figure it out... good luck.

About the heel 5's, are you trying on or off axis? Cant help ya on the s-bend cuz i dont have the balls for that one yet Shocked
