How To Throw Your First Front Flip On Skis

"The most popular tricks on skis are probably back flips, 360s, 180s, and grabs. Front flips aren't as common, generally because they're considered to be one of the more difficult tricks out there. But according to skier Hank Stowers, the front flip really isn't that hard of a trick. In this video, Hank walks you through the basic essentials of a front flip, a few skills and drills to make it easier,"

"While the video breaks the front flip down pretty well, it's important to remember that any trick, especially one that puts you inverted, can lead to some serious injuries. Only attempt if you're confident in your ability and understand that you're doing so at your own risk. Nolan Deck is a writer for Unofficial Networks, covering skiing and outdoor adventure."

Front flips on skis are less common and are often considered more difficult than back flips and spins. Proper execution relies on mastering fundamental mechanics, practicing targeted skills and drills, and eliminating common nasty habits. Focused progression and repetition of basics make the maneuver more attainable for experienced skiers. Inverted aerial maneuvers carry significant injury risk, so attempts should only occur when the skier feels confident in their ability and accepts personal responsibility for potential consequences.
