How do it
A heelside trick, similar to the Arabian flip, i.e a sideways somersault over your front shoulder.
1.
Go in hard and wide.
2.
During the approach, try to evenly push down with both legs.
3.
Immediately after push off, start doing a side flip over your front shoulder. To do this, try to draw your front knee to your ear, while leaning your entire body sideways, towards your front knee.
4.
Draw your knees up to your chest and keep both hands on the handle.
5.
You will only see your landing spot at the very last moment, so as soon you feel like you’re ending the flip, release your rear hand and straighten out slightly, thus guaranteeing a softer landing.
