My Technique: Up on right stick on the face(with stunt modifier) then flick both sticks down near the tip of the jump. Once you get it spinning you can let go of the modifier. Oh yeah, and pin it!

When im doing backflips it seems to go faster if you gas it starting when your rear wheel hits the highest point in the flip

I'm also curious as to whether there are any proven techniques for it. RBW has said that the speed at which you bring the REFLEX stick back at, controls the speed of the rotation, but i have had no luck with this so far. I've tried it on all of the freestyle tracks but i cannot for the life of me get it to work. Does anyone have a video tutorial, or any footage of themselves doing it to prove a certain technique? Perhaps RBW can shed some light?

Iv done it a few times. I think the main thing is to have a decent jump to do it. Getting a double flip on a average one just don't give you enough time. tapping or holding the throttle makes it go quicker, I prefer a tap with the throttle. Go up the ramp bull back and double it up and hope to land on the next ramp. The one that is a pain to do and i haven't done it yet is the front flip.

i can do it 3/5 times on the loading area. at the base of the jump i hold the right stick up. right before i leave the jump i flick both analog sticks down. But it has to be very fast or else it doesnt work. works for me at least...sometimes not consistentlyy

Hi, I don't do anything like the holding right stick up, then flicking down. I just hold LB and the right stick down, and I let go of the right stick as soon as I leave the jump and I hold the throttle for the whole thing. And it double backflips :) I can land them like that from the loading areas jumps, the side with 3 jumps, I can land from the middle jump. But I think if you want to try it, you should use the side of the jumps in the loading area. You start from the berm with no inside line, and you go to the side with the 3 jumps, and you jump off of the side of the middle jump. You go really high from there :) I just started landing frontflips from there too ^^ Sorry for longwinded explanation, this is the jump I'm talking about:
