yeah lol while both to me are easy, ive always found that backflips are actually easier than front flips once you know how to do both

I am a non-gymnast wanting to learn to do a backflip. How do you even start?

if you're not looking to have perfect form and stuff you should use a trampoline. jump a few times, then when you go for the flip reach up with your arms and then pull your legs into a tuck. im sure you can find a how to video on youtube somewhere too :)
