ADVANCED SKILLS AND TRICKS
Remember to always stay within your abilities when attempting any type of tricks or advanced movements. You need to learn new tricks gradually by learning slowly and patiently. Just like any other sport out there, practice makes perfect. The more you practice and teach yourself the better you will become at Fly Jumping. Here is a list of cool tricks for advanced users and experts.
Tuck
One of the easier tricks in the book. Good to learn as your first trick. On the top of jour jump bring your knees up. Also bring your chest forward to meet your knees. You do this because when you bring your knees up you create a rotation, when you bring your chest forwards you stop the rotation. When you can do this just grab hold of you knees or knee bar. Voila, your first tuck jump.
Pike
This trick is very similar to the tuck but far more difficult. First of all there is a question of flexibility. The more flexible you are the better the trick will look. On the top of your jump bring your legs forward, keep them straight. At the same time bring your chest forward to meet your legs. Because the legs are straight they will create much more rotation than the tuck. Make sure to bring your chest far enough forward so that you don’t end up on your ass.
Star 
Spread your legs as far apart as possible without taking the up in front of you. Keep your hands somewhere in between straight up and to the sides.
Straddle
This trick is something in between a "star" and a "pike". Bring your legs up in front of you like in the "pike". At the same time split your legs as much as possible. Remember to bring your chest so you don’t create a backwards rotation. The hands can either touch the toes or put them as far down as possible. Most people are more flexible this way than in the pike or the star. With a bit of flexibility this will be one of you nicest position jumps. Stretch before trying this trick so that you don’t pull a muscle on the inside of your legs.
Giant leap
On the top of your bounce, bring one foot forward and the other one backward. Most people are naturally more flexible on one leg than the other so make sure you know what side will look best. If you bend the back leg you will look a lot more flexible. It might be a good idea to stretch a bit extra before trying this trick.
Back grab
Do the same as you do in the “Giant leap”. If you have your right foot forward twist your body to the right. With your right hand grab the left spring behind your back.
The longer you hold it the nicer the grab.
Back scratcher
Bring your heals up behind you, twist your body to the right. Grab your right spring with your right hand.
Double kicker
Bring your heels up behind you as high as possible. Push your hips and arch you back. For a bit of extra style, tip your head back.
Toe touch
Start as a “Pike” then twist your body to the right and touch you toes with your left hand.
OCS
Start as a normal "pike" then bend your right leg 90 degrees. Then twist it underneath the other leg and reach down with your left hand to grab the right foot.
O2
Start with crossing your legs, bend the leg on top 90 degrees and lift you legs as a "pike". Grab the strait legs toe with your opposite hand and you have done it.
Back flips
If you reckon you can pull off a back flip then you are already very confident and we can't give you too much advice. If you fail a back- flip with PoweriZers then you have another half meter to fall!! The only difference to a regular backflip is the unsteady landing and your timing will have to be spot-on. This is not a trick we recommend since it's so dangerous and the risk of injuries is high. But, if you are real PoweriZer expert, this is the ultimate trick!
