What a happy looking thumbnail.

Before! After!

oh snap

No matter how old you are, landing on your tailbone sucks.

She almost made it too! Just had to get her feet into place.

there was no takeoff.. its almost as if she ran full speed and tripped...

you need to actually bend your knees and give some lift in order to actually flip properly.

no grape squashing fall noises? wtf is this shit?

Well, as a guy who turned 32 yesterday, I can vouch for the fact that the amount of knee bending you needed at 18 is MUCH less than the amount of knee bending you need at.. say.. 32.

And the knees are harder to bend as well.

If she would exercise regularly, this wouldn't be a problem.


Actually I never ever mastered the frontflip myself. I only landed it once and then I overspun it. All the other time I just land on my butt.

That's weird, because I can do backflip which is sort of "harder".

I totally thought she was going to step on the soccer ball or at least try to kick it and miss (a la this guy).
