How to get more height in flips

In general, there are three kinds of tips to get more height in flips.
You should start with 1.
After you complete 1, go to the next step, 2.
And the last is 3.
How to get more rotation in flips is here.

1.Get both more height and rotation

By these tips, you can jump/punch with more power.
Therefore, you can get more height and rotation.

1-1. Make the previous skill rotating more

Round off & Back Handspring
“The previous skill” means like a round off before a back flip, a handspring before a front flip, and so on.
If it rotates more, its rotation momentum is added to the power you punch the ground with.
If it rotates more, you can also rotate in the air more.

1-2. Extend out your knees and hip-joint

How to extend out your knee joints when taking off
Don’t you extend your knees and hip-joint when you do a vertical jump?
Flip is the same.
However, passing through a straight form, the power you jump/punch with diminishes.

1-3. Keep your torso and shins parallel before takeoff

Keep your torso and shins parallel when jumping
If you want to get more power from the ground, you should extend your knees and hip joints at the same speed.
Therefore, your torso and shins should be parallel until just before takeoff.

1-4. Keep your torso straight and stick your hips out(Front tlip)

Keep your torso straight and stick your hips out
Also, you can extend your hip-joint more because your hip-joint is more flexed with squatting form.
If your form is not like squatting, extension of your hip-joint prevent you from rotating forward.
It is because your upper body initiates backward rotation.

2.Get only more height

Your flip’s (center of gravity’s) height is determined at the moment of takeoff.

2-1. Make your center of gravity be above your feet

Make your center of gravity be above your feet
If you are leaning back/forward when takeoff, you jump in that direction instead of jumping upward.

3.Get more height in exchange for rotation

The power to jump/punch is used for getting  rotation and height.
By changing that distribution, you can get rotation in exchange for height.

3-1. Arch your back more when takeoff

To arch your back makes rotation but decreases height
The more you arch, the more you get rotation, but the less you get height.
However, if you arch earlier, both of rotation and height will diminish.

3-2. Change the swing direction of your arm, upper body(lower body when swing gainer)

Appropriate swing direction of your body
To swing something contributes to get rotation and height.
How much and which one that swing increases is determined by swing direction.
You should know the proper direction to increase rotation.
It is also applied to a swing gainer and a cast away and other rotation skills.
