Backloop Spin

About this trick

The backloop spin combines a backloop (backward vertical rotation) with a frontside 360 horizontal spin. The two rotations happen simultaneously — your body tumbles backward while also spinning horizontally. It's an expert-level combination that requires mastery of both individual tricks before they can be combined.

Key tips

1. 1

   Master the backloop and frontside 360 to a high standard individually before combining

2. 2

   The spin is initiated at the same time as the backloop throw — they happen together, not sequentially

3. 3

   The wing handling becomes much more complex with the combined rotation — expect a significant learning curve

4. 4

   Film everything — combined tricks are nearly impossible to self-diagnose without video
