Kicker Backroll

What it is

Similar to a front roll, but the mexican roll is performed off a heelside edge!

How to do it

1. Have a moderately hard edge into the kicker
2. Release your back hand just before the kicker
3. At the top of the kicker throw your head under your armpit and follow the flip round
4. Spot the landing over your toes

Common problems

• If you keep stalling the flip and taking a back edge, try to really focus on throwing your head under your armpit. Keep your arm nice and strong and core engaged!
